    Is it because they aren’t attracted to adults or because they don’t like a woman reaching an age where she can make her own decisions?

    I think some states let you get them with parental permission

    Or maybe all those girls I saw in middle school with earrings just had it done at home?

    Such immature insults with unsavoury implicit messages. There are plenty of legitimate reasons to hate conservatism. Implicitly calling all conservatives (you can never extrapolate anything besides the thing that binds them to a large group) either teenagers or ephebophiles (it’s not clear which, although I suppose teenagers are usually ephebophiles anyway), is obviously untrue, and also wouldn’t be an insult if it was, since ageism doesn’t make good insults, and neither is calling someone an ephebophile, since it means nothing as long as they don’t act on any illegal impulses.

      Not sure if butthurt pedo or conservative but the unironic use of the word ephebophile is a great hint.

        Well, I didn’t think the post was implying pedophile, is all. But maybe you thought it was, I guess it’s up to one own’s interpretation.

        And by the way, I myself am neither a conservative nor a pedophile, but I don’t like the way the internet has demonized even celibate pedophiles.

      I love how you get downvoted for stating the obvious. Oh someone does not like tattoos and/or piercings? That person must be the devil himself! Absurd. Focus on actual arguments instead of such nonsense.

          A person reveals his character by nothing so clearly as the joke he resents.

          (Who also liked his women on the younger side, come to think of it, although at least he waited until she was 16 to marry her. Wonder if he would have found this unfunny too.)
