    Legal consenting adult: I consent

    Legal consenting adult: I consent

    Twitter: I DONT

    Isn't there someone you forgot to ask?

    Chat, is it pedophilic of me to date a grown adult?

    There's been a lot of this on twitter/tumblr etc about Sabrina Carpenter. Because apparently if you find attractive a 25 year old pop star whose current stage persona is built about being sexy in a sort of old fashioned pinup "aww shucks" sort of manner, you are a nonce because she is only 5ft.

      Yeah because her height is totally obvious to everyone, including people who have never seen her perform live and only have video and pictures to go off of.

        That said she does reference her height in the first lyrics of her latest song

        Oh, I leave quite an impression

        Five feet to be exact

        You're wonderin' why half his clothes went missin'

        My body's where they're at

        But it doesn't matter how tall/short, she is an adult selling music to other adults.

    This was hot on tumblr like several years ago. Vividly remember the poster saying that any character under 5'6" is "pedo coded".

      I think there should just be a state Bureau of Consent that issues everyone consent cards with a numerical code that says who you can have consensual sex with. The rating with take into consideration age, height, education, popularity, sexual experience and taste in cinema, and you're not allowed to have sex with anyone who's rating isn't within 10 points of your own. All citizens must wear this card on their chest at all times. Sex can only be had in special hotels that requires patrons to scan their cards before entering a room and will report whoever has the higher rating to the police if they're ranking is too high.

      I unironically think this would be a good thing.

    like 1 in 3000 women is taller than me. I've only met one IRL. we were sitting at a party, like she was already sitting down when I got there, so I didn't know until we both stood up at the same time. she easily had like 3 inches on me. I think I blushed.

    I immediately blurted out an awkward ask-out to dinner, and she just chuckled and declined as she was seeing someone already.

      I like tall women, but I'm short enough where the category is fairly large. (No pun intended.) It was funny when everyone was crushing on Lady Dimitresque and I'm like, "first time"?

      I don't think I've ever once met a girl who's taller than I am, but boy would I like to. I recall reading somewhere that only 1% of women in the US are 6 feet or taller, so I'm not holding my breath, but I dated one a while back who was nearly my height, and she was such a stallion in my eyes.

    If I’m a 30 year old dating a 26 year old who’s slightly taller than me, where does that put me

      I hate to wave my finger like a boomer asshole, but why go to a website with this much toxic material?

      I left 4chan years ago when they brought back /pol/ and StormFront stormed in (pun intended).

      I'm probably on the older side of people here, I just really want to know. This can't be good for people's health :(

        People get unhealthily addicted to social media, in large part because it's designed to do exactly that. Everyone needs to remember that Twitter isn't real and that you should go do literally anything but doomscroll it on occasion, at minimum.

        I only really use Twitter to follow a few local journalists I like, and some OSINT people. I don't use it for anything else and don't understand how people use the front page or anything like that.

    Original post is a huge overreaction, but as a shortarse, I have heard some incredibly yikes-1yikes-2yikes-3 lines involving my height/build and the associated perceived youthfulness.

      Well, he might have to end his current relationship in light of the revelation that he's a pedophile, so it's good to keep the door open.

      It's a thirst subreddit for people into tall so that actually makes sense. It's the most likely way to get thirst upvotes.
