It's not illegal, but it's still weird, creepy and potentially harmful and no amount of lambasting about "the problematic age gap discourse" will make it not true.

    I didn't actually want to accuse you of saying this, but this sounds like to me you're saying heterosexual sex can't be truly consensual?

    What I'm saying is that all relationships have power dynamics.

      LS can speak for themselves, but that is a line that many radical feminists take

        I know, and I can see the logic. Still, I hope that straight people can have consensual sex, because the alternative would seem to make humanity irredeemable.

        I don’t know enough about “radical feminism” to say I am one but I’m a feminist and I’m a communist so I am a radical feminist.

          In this case, I believe they're referring to the radfem idea that all heterosexual sex is wrong and that being a lesbian is as much a moral/political choice as a sexuality. Some, but not all, of these people are also TERFS.
