I’m in my 40s, and I’ve helped out with the local kids’ soccer thing on Friday afternoons after school and various other things. Teenage girls think I’m great – I guess I give off a “cool dad” vibe or something. But teenage girls are incredibly annoying. I can’t even imagine actively seeking them out.

Yeah... I just cannot imagine wanting to do ANYTHING with people under the age of 18. Like I get that for a lot of predators it is about power, but you're 27 hanging out with a 16 y/o, that's fuckin' loser behaviour mate. Sure the 16 y/o might think you're cool because you've got a car and you can drink alcohol. But 27 and deciding that people your own age can't wise up to your tricks, so you choose to hang out with teenagers? Gross.
