Re: Recruit vs Groom: Compare and contrast

One can think that girls are sexual beings, that they do not have a purity that needs protecting, that they have agency, that they and men develop an emotional relationship without any nefarious content, that they are not always harmed by sexual encounters... One can believe all that and still make a very strong case that a decision to initiate adult-girl sexual activity is always wrong.

Well, yes, you can

If you did that it would imply that

girls are sexual beings, that they do not have a purity that needs protecting, that they have agency, that they and men develop an emotional relationship without any nefarious content, that they are not always harmed by sexual encounters

are entirely irrelevant to

a decision to initiate adult-girl sexual activity is always wrong.

Of course, we already knew that.
