When does Friday feel like a Monday?

Provided disambiguation for co-workers on NAMBLA, underage/overage polygamy, plural adult relationships, and underage/underage relationships. NAMBLA and
underage/overage relationships are creepy. (I understand that some people are very sexually aware at very young ages, and are interested in adults, but they are very much the exception rather than the norm, and any relationship they had the possibility of getting into would have the Chibi Sue problem.) Plural adult relationships -- as long as everyone's adult and
consenting, have at. Underage/underage relationships can have problems if someone gets diseased or knocked up, and teenagers have nearly infinite capacity for cruelty and trauma, but ... teenagers, you know?

...self, there are things you can't do anything about, and you're not responsible for doing things about this. Let it go. Let it go. There is an error in the program.
...and "Suzanne" comes on Pandora, and suddenly I feel my own weightlessness in my sacral chakra.

Actually it would be more accurate to say that I am *generally* not squicked by age differences of five years or less. I really do not believe in the magickal age of 18 except as a legal fiction that people must deal with for the sake of their own health. That was a much softer legal line when I was a teenager, and hence the Chibi-Sue problem was much less endemic. I briefly had a 27 year old boyfriend when I was 15 or 16, and it was not a problem until he met my dad who was in overprotective mode because he and I had had a date and I had been unable to call him to break it after a laboratory accident that left me seriously burnt on my arm and less seriously so on my torso thanks to a couple of t-shirts and a padded bra.
I'm not actually squicked by any of the pairings I write, although Cordelia/James in LW comes close to squicking me and only doesn't because even though she is 12-13 and he is a young 17, she definitely has more power over him than he does over her. What squicks me about age-differentiated pairings in real life is the power and influence the older partner seems to have in most cases, and the way that it's very rarely used for the younger partner's good. My 27 year old boyfriend, when I was 16, and I went to lectures and artshows together and he encouraged my ambitions; a year or so later, I ended up with a different guy that age who wanted me to marry him and have babies, and I basically laughed him off. THAT kind of guy hitting on younger girls, the one who wants to get a younger teen dependent on him before she's old enough to know any better, bothers me a lot, and that's usually the case; but I know a lot of bright, intelligent girls who are simply bored stupid with boys their own age. I don't think I dated anyone my age until I was 19 or 20. Ironically in recent years I've dated *younger* people, people in their 20s and 30s--I don't have much in common with your average over-40 male, particularly divorced dads.

I just find it creepy that there have been so many of them recently.

I'm.
As far as I'm concerned, I've already tried to work with the center, and you know? As long as we're there, there will be people like that coming in. I can't take it anymore. Andrea wants to give them a chance. I've already given them a chance. I'm done.
