The imprecision of language
Good article on the exaggerations used in today's political climate.
Those with TDS should especially read it.

Dating 14 to 17 year old girls is NOT pedophilia.

Pedophillia is an easier way of saying than knowing every little word for each age group. Do you think it's any better for a 30 something to have a sexual relationship with a high school girl?

And the NY Times can't be taken seriously anymore. Its not as bad as CNN, but its lost its integrity. WaPo has to be read skeptically.

What does it matter? None of them are going to survive. The Washington Post, the New York Times? Just excuses to cut down healthy trees. The world has moved on. They used to have a monopoly on the news. Not anymore.

Do I think it's better for a 30yo to have a relationship with a 16yo than with a 4yo? **YES**

I don't think either is good but one is clearly less sick than the other. Or are you saying that Harvey Milk was a pedophile?
