It took me a really long time to follow that the point they're making is about guys saying women mature faster as justification for lusting after people too young for them like creeps
I don't know that I've ever heard "women mature faster" but creeps come up with all kinds of justifications for their grossness ๐คทโโ๏ธ
And to justfy all the housework and childcare women often have to do alone.
Girls are outpacing boys in school in most countries around the world but this advantage for women goes away in the workforce.
That says a lot
I'd have more confidence as to the loudness of the statement if our schools made any sense
But also the thing being said is pretty obvious and said elsewhere at deafening volumes, so i don't entirely doubt it's true.
There's no easier way to groom someone than to make them feel special and important. And it's sad because kids should feel special and important. Just not because Uncle Touchy-fingers is feeding them bullshit.
