saw this pointed out here and felt it deserved it’s own post
let me mention that this is exactly the sort of argument I’ve seen pedophilia enthusiasts break out many times:
hmm, we thoughtful inquirers should look at this incredibly tenous evidence I’ve curated. it raises questions about whether we should be superrrrr chill about sex with children. questions with answers that, I’m sold on!
Absent from this analysis: reduction in QALYs resulting from perfectly good men being denied a child bride by some evil meddling NGO. Will someone please think of the poor men?
I’m actually somewhat surprised that the rationalists didn’t bring this up.
