and the lord of the maner wasn't a have and the peasant wasn't a have not?
this is the same feudal bullcrap the aristocracy have used to justify the use of and disposal of young poor women forever. a much older man leveraging his wealth, influence, and power into a sexual relationship with a woman young enough that the average person his age would refer to her as a kid is messed up
Think of it this way: after he dies, which will be soon, she inherits his wealth and is still young enough to enjoy it.
and if a peasant was impregnated by the lord of the manor feudal custom demanded he pay for the childs education and secure them a career or marriage.
This was also a bad system
It's not about the lord of the manor, it's about intergenerational wealth transfer from the haves to the have-nots, from men to women.

The woman didn't inherit the lord's wealth
Please try to read what I wrote instead of what you thought I wrote
she won't inherit his wealth either. That is just not how our inheritance laws work
She in many ways is worse of than the peasant in my analogy who had things guaranteed by right
And even if she did inherit something it’s still fucking wrong for old dudes to be getting fucked by young women for cash.
I think this point deserves clarification. Sex workers should not be criminalised and are not doing anything wrong
but I am not convinced that people can consent to sex if not consenting means they don't get paid money they need to live and or loose their job.
alienation from labor is bad enough but alienation from your ability to sexually consent is worse
a site which really helped inform my position on this issue
If they are just dating, don’t share children & she’s not in his will then she doesn’t get anything
also he's 50 he isn't likely to die soon
