    So he’s 29 and this happened slightly over ten years ago. It’s possible that he could have been 18yo at the time and talking to a 17yo which would be pretty normal. But I don’t think he’d lose his job for that. The church would be defending him by pointing out that that’s a common thing for high school seniors to have one 18 and one 17 as they both become adults. Not happening here, so I think it’s safe to say this was further out of bounds. The church said what they learned was shocking. What I just described is not shocking.

    Let’s go maga creeps! You just keep winning so hard. Definitely not a drag queen.

        A significant number of my female high school friends were seduced by college student aged men at that age and it really fucked them up psychologically. Some of them for years.

        I remember taking one of my friends to get a pregnancy test because she was getting screwed by a fucking substitute teacher who was also a grad student (it was a college town) and he never got found out.

          Yup. It seems like most women I know well lost their virginity to older men. It wasn’t always predatory but it happened often enough to really give pause.
