Really? You think these men are child molesters?
It’s a slow day at the office and I just went back and read most of the posts. I’m completely horrified that so many women are so quick to call men pedophiles. It’s probably the worst thing I can imagine anyone calling a person and it freaks me out that people are so comfortable accusing strangers of it.
Pedophiles are into abusing children. You call the cops on them and hope they get sent to prison. They are evil criminals. They don’t get off on getting frisky with grown ladies with shaved privates and they don’t get off on the regular old porn that we’re talking about.
I feel like this word is getting watered down to include almost everyone and that seems like a dangerous thing. The word should be reserved for criminals.
