So Much Stupid, Ignorance and Denial In One Person - Please meet, Ms Deborah Orr

For those who seek much younger sexual partners, it's about power, not sex

"Relationships of great generational inequality [sic] – even those that are legal – are often exploitative [and, if one is?]

Britain is being engulfed in an avalanche of child abuse claims [well, at least you are correct, there, Debs], not all of them against Jimmy Savile. Others are being named too. While it's tempting to place all these claims in a box marked "historic" [hysterical], that's not good enough. Sure, paedophilia [sic] is a word that has passed into the vernacular, having been obscure [only to the ignorant] in the 1960s and 1970s, when much of this behaviour took place. Stars taking advantage of underage people for sex may not even have identified their own behaviour as paedophilic [sic] at that time of "sexual revolution".

But the only thing that has decisively changed is that there is now clear recognition that it is perverted [welcome to the early 1900s, readers], as well as illegal, to have sex with a person who is under the age of 16. Seventeen-year-old women are still a more archetypal representation of female sexuality than 37-year-old women. This is all put down to the loveliness of very young bodies, when it is really about the loveliness of the ease with which very young people can be placed "in awe" of older people who give them sexual attention. [perhaps it is all these things and more, Debs, and why not?]

This is about power, not sex. [that you believe there is any difference, is laughable, Debs] Young people are taught that an older person's attention is flattering. [are they, where?] It's not. [it is] It's exploitative. [and exploitation is 'bad' or rare, why?] Those who crave much younger partners might as well have a sign round their neck saying: "Emotionally immature." [Oh, Debs, perhaps part of your 'history' is now climbing out? Natural regret about, and loss of, past lovers, can sting, we know]

Yes, love can transcend generations, but when a relationship of generational inequality [sic] starts with sex, it starts as an exploitative relationship. [Love is Sex, Sex is Love, Debs - all part of the same process] People are free to have such relationships, of course. But they need to be seen for what they are. {natural, healthy, widespread and, truth be told, normal - not that the latter matters]
