Not even being provocative but if you think Greta Thunberg has the maturity to guide global policy-making then you cannot object to Jeffrey Epstein paying 16-year-olds for sex.
The crime part of the sex crime is the action of the legal adult in the situation. The person committing the crime knows it is illegal and is doing it anyway. FFS, that this even needs to be explained to a woman is disturbing.
Just because something is a crime doesn't mean it's bad, to be clear. I'm not saying it's *not* bad, but crime != bad. It used to be a crime for black people to live in the 'wrong' places, and is currently a crime for many people to smoke weed. Crimeness shouldn't be relevant.
A sex crime doesn’t become NOT a sex crime because there are remarkable young people engaged in activism on a global scale. I don’t even know how you can begin to reconcile this vile comparison.
I think underage sex is so taboo that people instinctively put it in its own moral category: young people may be given responsibility for things except for providing consent.
