Give me a reason why sexually pleasuring a child is hurting them.

"Because it traumatizes them."

That's insane. Consensual touching of genitals by a loving adult to induce pleasurable sensations is NOT a traumatic experience.

"Because they don't understand it."

What's to understand? It's just sex. Children have to learn about sex somehow. It feels just as good to them as it does to us. There will likely be less of a romance component to the activity the younger the child is, but so-what?

"Because they aren't physically ready for it."

What makes you think I want to stick my dick in a girl's vagina if it means hurting her (which would be the case with most girls I'm interested in)? Most of the time, what I fantasize about basically amounts to consensual mutual masturbation.

"Because they will regret it later."

It's pretty difficult NOT to regret something after growing up and realizing what you did / he did was "wrong".

"Because there's a power imbalance in the relationship."

Just because children are easier for abusive adults to exploit does not mean that a child is more likely to run into an abusive adult and be exploited by them.

There's an argument to be made that children are less capable of warding off "the bad guys" and thus need that extra protection... but the Age of Consent is bullshit for this.

If you want to protect children: empower them and make sure they know how to avoid / escape an abusive situation. And teaching children how to say no without giving them the option of saying yes is not empowering them - it is in fact the opposite, robbing the word "no" of its meaning and forcing them into believing that sex is just another "bad" thing that will get them in trouble.

There goes the last thread of anti mindset which I have been holding onto all this time.

Forget pro-contact, pro-choice is damn right.

Now, to clarify, I still believe that it is wrong to become involved with a child sexually in this society, knowing all of the negative consequences which are so likely to ensue.

But by all means, go out and form those loving relationships with girls - there can certainly be romantic reciprocation especially as the girls approach / enter puberty.

Don't become sexually involved.

(Remember that prepubescent girls are not likely to be interested in sex as an act of romance anyway.)

Enjoy life and enjoy the legal aspects of your sexuality to their fullest.

Hope for change.

Society will chill the fuck out eventually.

Peace.
