Milo did not condone pedophilia. I hate you Gramps for jumping the gun. Milo was talking about how hard it was for him to come out and that having an older man in his life helped him.
Any conservative who goes against Milo now I will hate for the rest of my life. Because it means you did not read the whole story behind it.
I can just imagine how many conservatives are distressed that you may hate them.
Milo discussed how he thought that the legal age of consent was arbitrary and unfair.
No- Milo did not advocate pedophilia- but he did clearly state that he thought that he didn't agree with the consent laws.
There are straight men here on USMB who have advocated the same thing-- and most of us have shut them down too.
While a specific14 year old girl or boy might be mature enough to handle a relationship with a mature adult- consent laws protect the majority of girls and boys from abusive relationships with adults who enjoy a great imbalance in power and authority.
I personally know at least 3 women who were abused that way as teenagers by older men.
