But even in the Claudia instance I’d say no because it’s still just too gross. There’s just no getting past the body age thing. I guess I’d say Claudia could probably have a legal right to seek adult experiences (though she would only find sick weirdos), but Keiko and Princess Bubblegum should not.
I’d argue that a real person in Claudia’s situation shouldn’t be discriminated against for what is ultimately a physical abnormality. I see it as a more extreme version or “dwarves shouldn’t be allowed to have relations with larger people because they look vaugely like children.”
I’d also argue that any media which depicts someone in Claudia’s situation finding love is probably some creep trying to find an outlet for their fantasies.
I agree she has the right to want that and seek love. But, she isn’t a dwarf. She’s literally a 5 year old (11 in the movie). And even if she recites Shakespeare, or can do multivariable calculus, or writes a graduate level research paper on why it’s ok for her to have sex, it would still physically be like banging a kindergartener. And I would HOPE that’s not something normal people would be OK with. That’s why I think she would be doomed to be with some kind of pervert.
But how would I know, I was proven very wrong about what average people think after the last election.

Definitely an outlet for creepy fantasies.
