It's quite clear what's going on here. Everyone has their "it wouldn't happen on "our side" blinders on. You've been taken for a fool and you are too proud to admit it! Milos pushing the pedo vibes. Sad.

Let's not lump the morally grey and the morally black together. Sex with 13 year olds isn't morally equivalent to sex with 3 year olds. One is a contention as to where someone is 'developed enough for sex', with social mores and upbringing playing an influence--the other is a categorical attraction to the undeveloped. Only someone with impure intentions tries to equivocate the two.

I'm not sure how to put this but I feel like I should chime in as a "left side of things" person. First of all I have to say I disagree with the assertion that Milo made in regards to someone as young as 13 being able to give consent. No someone 13 does not have the mental maturation to give consent to have sexual contact with much older people. That said I do see the gray area that I suspect he was trying to convey. In some places in the world even in our own country the age of consent is very low by my standards https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_the_United_States

so 16 in parts of the country. I personally think 18 should be the cut off but hey that's me.

I also know quite a few adults (gay and strait) that will admit to finding teenagers attractive. Lets be real some of them look much older than they are.

My point is there are a load of double standards out there and case specific things that muddy the waters. At the end of the day we have to draw a line someplace and that can create situations that are complicated.

I have a friend who was convicted of statutory for having a relationship with a 16 year old while he was 21. I think thats not okay personally but its a weird situations because the girl never had a problem with it and it was her father that found out and pressed charges. He and her remain friends to this day. In some other states this would not have been a crime. Do you guys get what I am saying?

I also think this kind of thing is a bigger deal in the gay community and again sometimes the lines are a little blurry.

There are also individuals that are cognitively speaking older than others their age. This does not give adults the right to molest them but its a fact. I know when I was in my early 20s (and I suspect this is still an issue) it was pretty common for underage girls to try and lie about their age. So dating could be a bit of a mine field.

Personally I have never been a fan of this Milo guy and I don't care that he is being taken down. It is very obviously however politically motivated.

Why can't people hear his real words??? I will use Trump as an example. During dude talk he said "you could grab them by the pussy and they would not care" he was speaking about gold digging whores. What libs heard is I grab women by the pussy. A shitstorm breaks out when people twist what was actualy said.

Nice victim bashing. You ruin your own stupid arguement.

Milo's got names. They must discredit him first.

No 13 year old is mature enough to give consent, not even homosexual 13 year olds period! Milo was giving his thumbs up, for an older man younger boy relationship. The whole TY father shit was beyond disturbing!

Great SPIN job Fecal breath!

None of us can see all the angles of this but I hope Milo at least has an offer of protection from the trump machine and is free to speak now. Either way he's going to be judged for what he says next. Stay alive and speak truth Milo.

I smelled the bullshit before I even logged in

He is a victim. Should be treated with respect. The voice on the video was so creepy and annoying. I could not listen to it.

Nice try, nice spin. you some professional journalist?

Milo: “This is a controversial point of view I accept. We get hung up on this kind of child abuse stuff to the point where we’re heavily policing even relationships between consenting adults, you know grad students and professors at universities.”

The men in the joint video interview then discuss Milo’s experience at age 14.

Another man says: “The whole consent thing for me. It’s not this black and white thing that people try to paint it. Are there some 13-year-olds out there capable of giving informed consent to have sex with an adult, probably…”

The man says, “The reason these age of consent laws exist is because we have to set some kind of a barometer here, we’ve got to pick some kind of an age…”

Milo: “The law is probably about right, that’s probably roughly the right age. I think it’s probably about okay, but there are certainly people who are capable of giving consent at a younger age, I certainly consider myself to be one of them, people who are sexually active younger. I think it particularly happens in the gay world by the way. In many cases actually those relationships with older men…This is one reason I hate the left. This stupid one size fits all policing of culture. (People speak over each other). This sort of arbitrary and oppressive idea of consent, which totally destroys you know understanding that many of us have. The complexities and subtleties and complicated nature of many relationships. You know, people are messy and complex. In the homosexual world particularly. Some of those relationships between younger boys and older men, the sort of coming of age relationships, the relationships in which those older men help those young boys to discover who they are, and give them security and safety and provide them with love and a reliable and sort of a rock where they can’t speak to their parents. Some of those relationships are the most -”

It sounds like Catholic priest molestation to me, another man says, interrupting Milo.

Milo: “And you know what, I’m grateful for Father Michael. I wouldn’t give nearly such good head if it wasn’t for him.”

Other people talk. Oh my God, I can’t handle it, one man says. The next thing in line is going to be pedophilia…says another man.

Milo: “You’re misunderstanding what pedophilia means. Pedophilia is not a sexual attraction to somebody 13-years-old who is sexually mature. Pedophilia is attraction to children who have not reached puberty. Pedophilia is attraction to people who don’t have functioning sex organs yet. Who have not gone through puberty. Who are too young to be able (unclear and cut off by others)…That’s not what we are talking about. You don’t understand what pedophilia is if you are saying I’m defending it because I’m certainly not.”

Another man said, “You are advocating for cross generational relationships here, can we be honest about that?”

Milo: “Yeah, I don’t mind admitting that. I think particularly in the gay world and outside the Catholic church, if that’s where some of you want to go with this, I think in the gay world, some of the most important, enriching and incredibly life affirming, important shaping relationships very often between younger boys and older men, they can be hugely positive experiences for those young boys. They can even save those young boys, from desolation, from suicide (people talk over each other)… providing they’re consensual.”

It ain't that simple

Okay, this seems like a conspiracy at this point. Milo was a limited hang-out, designed to smear Trump.
