Yes. Like holy crap absolutely man yes. When I was sixteen, my bio dad was teaching me how to drive and told me to go into a lane across from us. Instead of going into the lane I was supposed to, I got confused by his directions and went into an active traffic flow across from us. We were very lucky fast and furious here didn't get us into an accident. You expect someone to know how to navigate a mortgage?? /genq /hj

Okay, joking aside. I know this because I was a minor and I did stupid shit as a minor. Everyone does stupid shit as kids, it comes free with you being a kid and being born not knowing things. But that's the thing about being a child, you don't understand things. And when you do, you don't often understand the full complexity of it or the meaning of it. Your brain is growing and you don't understand why the world is changing, why your parents are aging. The younger you are, the less.

I often notice on the predator's end that they tend to get frustrated when their "partner" doesn't act like an adult or doesn't act mature. They tend to adultify them and play up their level of cognitive ability when their partner just. Doesn't have it. Both of the predators who took advantage of me knew this. My 18 year old "partner" would lay out all his emotional burdens on me, things I often didn't understand. And then he'd get mad me when I didn't know that thing that was making him mad ever existed or was a thing or didn't do something he liked which, I didn't even know he didn't like because he didn't bother with his boundaries and I didn't even know boundaries exist. I was 15. How the fuck did he expect me to know xyz? Same with my other abuser. ^^^^ I also "Consented" to being in that relationship btw. I knew he was an adult and was okay with it because I thought he loved me. All off my abusers (and I'm not even talking about my groomers), treated me like an adult as a kid, like my autistic behaviors was me intentionally bothering them, like I was purposefully manipulating people around me for attention when I cried due to overstimulation and stress at school. I fucking paid for it in the loss of my childhood. I was only a child when they wanted me to be.

Meanwhile in countries where the age of consent is abolished:

Well to be fair, it isn’t just children /gen. There’s pedophiles who are in recovery too. Those with adult partners and even children who can’t due to economical or social stigma or the fear of violence.

There’s also those suffering with POCD who think they’re pedophiles but genuinely aren’t. God I know how hard it is to get help.

Also NOCD helped me so much get NOCD.

But a-lot of these people are also teachers, pastors, journeymen, doctors, therapists, politicians, presidents. Many of them are adults who can get help financially. They just. They just..choose not to.

i hate hate haaaate how normalized incest has become as of late because no matter what it is abuse to me. it is predatory and it is unhealthy. there will always be some form of power imbalance. there is a reason it is "taboo" and unreasonable
