    Actually it's not pedophilia, it's e̶p̶h̶e̶b̶o̶p̶h̶i̶l̶i̶a̶ a constitutional conundrum.https://twitter.com/AlanDersh/status/1155962391944781826 …

    Alan DershowitzVerified account @AlanDersh
    I challenge my readers to distinguish the cases, as a matter of constitutional law. I did not suggest that it is moral to have sex with a 16 year old, but rather that the issue presents a constitutional conundrum worthy of discussion. 2/

        Does anyone know why he just can't stop talking about this? There is no upside for him here. He should have just stopped talking about it.

        The average age of first period in US is 12. 😳 When I was 12 I merely held the hand of a boy I liked. We didn't even have a single kiss because we were too young to even have that urge yet.
