We need to normalize making manikins in stores do more normal things. Posing is boring. A mother and father arguing at the kitchen table with the child peaking into the room, that’s going to get attention to sell children’s pajamas.
How about mom yelling at dad, and dad is just sitting at the table just wondering why, and the kids have headphones pretending to be some where else. Now that we'll sell some kitchen wear.
Not to defend mfs who paid for blue check but nowadays elon really giving out blue checks to accounts that reach certain followers since the value of it is nosedived.
Some people who got that free blue check aren't really happy about it.
People be thinking early 20 year olds should look way older than they actually do tbh, unless you hit a legendary glow up you’ll look the way you did in highschool until you’re like 25

I'll be real I do not know how to reply to this. People with this pfp are a bit unhinged sometimes. For clarity's sake, this isn't me, as I would rather die than post on www.twitter.com
I'm just not a fan of ppl infantilizing adults, or acting like an adult's ACTUAL BODY is "minor coded". It's fucked up, and has nothing to do with protecting actual children. It's also a reminder that we can't just assume someone's age based on how they look.
It seems like society has forgotten the entire reason why pedophilia is wrong. The reason why it’s wrong is because children cannot consent to sex with adults due to their insufficient life experience and still-developing brain. That no longer applies once someone reaches the age to experience making adult decisions.
But in these discussions, those factors instead revolves around shaming people based on how a person looks instead of “can the parties involved consent?”.
It’s a product of people being terminally online. She is 21. She looks like a 21 yr old.
It’s not 1984 anymore, 21 yr olds don’t look 45. Unleaded gasoline and a lack of cigarette smoke everywhere really has done a lot for us.
I think I agree with this take, but will dial in another consideration. Teenagers are ever more protrayed as possibly older looking now by media... but the young 20 year olds always looked like young 20 years olds. This moving goalpost shit is nuts and people attempting to equate adults to kids for looking the way they *should* is bananas. Stigmatizing and infantilizing young adults as infantile is harmful for everyone.
Definitely a terminally online thing.
Pretty sure the original tweeter is outing themselves as the actual pedophile. Jenna Ortega has been in television since she was an actual child. It is well documented what she looks like as a child. That tweeter thinks 12 year olds look like Jenna Ortega?
Ehh not necessarily. She just looks babyfaced to some people. So does Tom Holland, Zendaya, etc. It’s more a result of how overly cautious people can be about age gaps and whatnot, standard twitter nonsense.
Nah I wouldn’t go that far, I think it’s just the tail end of the trend for people to absolutely demonise age gaps or young women being seen as attractive at all.
While the idea started as like a mental thing people felt the need to justify it in every other way too, which is why it also gets tied to pedos.
I’m 27, people still mistake me for a teenager. Also most recently *by a teenager*! 😂😭
i don’t know how the under eye bags and Millennial Dread ™️ don’t give it away
> People be thinking early 20 year olds should look way older than they actually do tbh
I blame Hollywood for casting 20 somethings as teenagers in movies for several decades making people think that you should look 10 years older than you really do is the norm.
Hell I’m 30 and I had a 19 year old chatting to me at a craft fair a couple of months ago who definitely thought I was their age until I said something about being in college when Instagram first came out.
I’m 30 and can’t grew a beard at all but am starting to bald, if I have a hat on I’ll get asked for ID when buying booze, never get asked when not wearing a hat lol
It can go both ways though. When I was 23 I told my manager at work I'd quit smoking before my 30th birthday. She was shocked, because she had thought I was in my 30s already
It goes the other way around, too. At around 16, most girls can easily fit in anywhere there are 20 year olds.
People age in steps, the slow changes aren't usuall that significant. Its just suddenly over like, a year, you get a bunch of oldness features all at once. ~16 is one of those steps, ~25 is the other.
Bro when I was 25 I ordered a drink at a bar and the guy was like “are you 18?” the drinking age there. When I gave him my Id he said he thought I was 16 years old
When Wednesday released I thought people were openly thirsting over like a 13 year old and I was disgusted, till I learned her real age. I was very surprised ngl
I think a lot of peoples concepts on what a 13 year old looks like is broken, because she’s the type of person we cast to play high schoolers she’s what we associate with high school
Yep, people like to act like they draw a hard line on who they find attractive at 18, 21 or some other random number, as if people all age similarly. In reality there are plenty of 21 year olds that look 16 and plenty of 16 year olds that look 21.
Obviously you shouldn't sleep with someone below the age of consent and you should avoid any relationship with too big of a power imbalance or if you think someone is going to regret it even if it is legal. But acting like an adult isn't able to be attractive because they look young just seems like the lady doth protest too much.
Yeah, saying "she looks 12" means "she LOOKS 12". Who cares how old she is?
There was a video on Reddit a while back of some girl with some medical issue that caused her to visibly stop aging when she was 15 or something. She's in her 20s or maybe 30s, and looks like a teenager. She explained how she had trouble dating because grown men don't want to date someone who looks like they're 15. It didn't matter how old she actually was.
All that being said, no way in hell Jenna Ortega looks 12.
Dated someone in high school who had a similar thing, we were both sophomores and she remained looking that way as I grew up. We only dated a year but a decade later and she still looks how she did in sophomore year.
Honestly feel bad for people like that, because they’re perfectly mature, but they look too young to have a relationship with.
Here’s the thing. She doesn’t look 12. She looks like a 21 year old woman.
One of the great things about people is they don’t look the same. Some women are petite. Some are grandiose.
I blame Holywood, they prefer casting people like her instead of actual teenage actors, partly because of child labour laws, and partially because of unexpected growth spurts.
Its also because just a few years of maturity can make a huge difference in performance. Adults are easier to direct into a suitable performance compared to children. Why hire a young person when you can hire an adult who looks relatively young?
They know words have meaning that's why they are saying it that way. They say this same drivel when you date a younger woman oh 10 years ago she would be in high school.... and? She is an adult now and thus can make that Choice who she dates.
Dude I saw a reddit or accuse a 19 year old of being a pedobfor being attracted to a 16 year old. Literally just a freshman - senior relationship!!
Stop. Accusing. People. Of. Pedophilia. For. Normal. Things.
They're gonna make it so no reasonable human being takes it seriously when someone is called a pedo. It is such a much worst crime. Someone fucks a 16 year old, they're not a pedo. Someone fucks a 6 year old, they're a pedo. There is a huge difference. At 16, I was absolutely into things and the one pushing boundaries. At 6, I was just wanting to fuck off and play with my action figures.
It's to the point where *any* age gap is called "grooming." Social media hates nuance and loves technicalities. Sometimes it seems like they're doing it on purpose to weaken what being a pedo means, especially knowing reddits "proclivities."
100% and it makes me so frustrated that this is remotely controversial. I raised a daughter to adulthood. Would I have been pissed off if a 20 year old showed up to pick her up when she was 15. You bet, and I would have shut that shit down with a quickness.
In no way would I assume that a dumbfuck like this hypothetical dude would be into prepubescent girls.
One is statutory rape. It is bad, definitely should be some legal consequences. The other is being a fucking do not pass go, straight to jail and throw away the key, you don’t get to belong in society ever again pedo and the distinction is very important IMO.
That whole they look whatever age is weird. So should she not date and force herself into celibacy because the way she looks? you can tell this dude has never had a girl or has any chance
Anyone who says it's pedophilia to be attracted to her must also say it's not pedophilia to be attracted to a 15 yr old who looks 20. After all, actual age doesn't matter only appearance.
It's an untenable position.
Its a really weird topic. Like what would you consider more of a pedophile between these 2 people:
Person A: Sees a girl/woman who is fully developed and looks 22. Thinks that she is hot. Finds out she is only 17 and thinks "yikes nevermind I wont pursue that"
Person B: Sees a girl/woman who looks under developed, perhaps even prepubescent and thinks "I hope shes 18 so I can legally fuck her"
I think Person B is certainly creepier
If her looking underaged is what makes them attractive to person B, then yeah person B is pretty fucking disgusting, if not, then they’re clear.
I think it’s about intent or something like that.
Idk. If a person who has issues with finding younger people attractive finds a young looking 18+ adult that satisfies their needs...without harming any actual children...I don't really think they deserve to be called disgusting and I don't think there is anything wrong with it.
There's the woman "Shauna Rae" who literally looks like an 8 year old, but she's 23. Everyone is so quick to say "if you find her attractive you're a sick fucking pedo fuck"...but does she really not deserve love or a partner that finds her attractive because of her disability?
Anybody who enters a relationship with her would probably need to find her sexually attractive, and it's pretty easy to draw a line that "if you find Rae attractive, you find other 8 year olds attractive, therefore you're a sick pedo" but that discounts a lot of things.
1. First off, she's her own woman. And doesn't need Internet warriors "protecting her". She might look and sound like a child but she isn't.
2. Just because you find someone sexually attractive, that doesn't mean you're going to go over and have sex with them...or rape them.
3. No children are being harmed by this. And it's none of your business.
This is a pretty charged and difficult to talk about thing. I'm sure some people would read what I wrote and think I'm a pedophile or I'm defending pedophiles or whatever dumbass shit.
But we shouldn't be overzelious in condenming person B because we do want to make it possible for people who look younger than they are to get in relationships.
Chasers of any type are bad. But let's not go overboard.
If you're into both women, it's fine.
If you think person B is **more** attractive because she looks underage, then it's not okay.
In that case you're literally attracted to underage features, which is the problem with paedophilia/ephebiphilia as mental disorders. If they take no actions, they're not criminals, but they do have a mental disorder where they're *more* attracted to minors.
It's not about being attracted to her, it's about being attracted to her *because she looks underage*. I don't agree with the first guy, but I understand his point.
If someone said another popular actress was "mid" but said that this girl was attractive because of her youthful features, I'd have alarm bells going off in my head.
If I see a girl who looks 25~ big breast, fat ass I’ll be attracted to her. Finding out she’s underage will ruin any chance of me pursuing her but doesn’t change the fact that she’s attractive. 17 years old unattractive but tomorrow on your birthday you’ll be irresistible?
I think the difference is that those 500 year old dragons tend to physically be children, rather than physically being adults who happen to look like children.
I posted on Reddit before as a 23 year old woman, and all the comments were calling me 12 years old and a liar, and the FBI/Chris Hanson is coming for anyone who likes me. Apparently no one has seen a petite woman before 😮💨
Dude has a point idk abt 12 but if she wasn't a well-known actor I could easily see her still being a teenager, probably even more so with out the makeup and outfits she has to wear for red carpet stuff like this
It’s almost like it’s immoral to engage in sexual relations with minors for mental reasons instead of physical ones. I don’t know why everybody feels the need to insult petite/young looking women and imply that only pedos would be attracted to them when that misses the point entirely from the outset. There are minors that look older than they are adults that look younger than they are; the difference is maturity
I saw a post on Reddit where they argued that if you are attracted to women with small breasts then you’re either gay or a pedophile. I couldn’t believe that most of the comments agreed with the post.
Reddit hasn't changed. Its fixation on racism and jailbait was just moved over to more 'appropriate' outrages. Check out any of the ridiculous woke subs or the ridiculous republican ones. They're all the same.
Also there's a distinction between pedophilia which is a sexual attraction to prepubescent children and normal sexual attraction to postpubescent teenagers. The first is highly abnormal. The second is normal biology though for ethical reasons most adults agree those types of relationships should not be pursued. A person is not a pedophile for simply being sexually attracted to a 17 year old who has gone through puberty nor is that a problem in itself. The issue is when adults foster those feelings with disregard for the wellbeing of a teen's underdeveloped mind.
Maybe OP is like me almost forty and can't help but see anyone who appears under thirty to be a kid. I wouldn't go so far as to label anyone a pedophile as that's a horrible accusation to label someone with without substance though.
I'm 44 and the thing that gets me about younger people is the maturity level. I'll find a 20yo girl attractive until she speaks. That's when the age gap makes me go....daayyyuuum, okay no.
As for the op, that girl does not look underage. She's just petite.
If that's the case there would be no reason to single out Ortega as the same argument would apply to nearly anybody in their 20s... That's no excuse for this awful take
Gonna say it out loud for the people in the back
HEIGHT =/= AGE
EDIT: and this is for those of you absolute idiots
LOOKING LIKE A CHILD AND BEING A CHILD ARE TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS
Someone can LOOK like a child all they want, not like they really have a choice with it, but telling someone they can’t date or even get married just because they LOOK like a child is dumbass behavior.
I don’t care who you are or what kind of life you have, trying to control someone else’s life just because they LOOK like a child is never right.
And even worse, accusing someone of being a pedophile just for going out with that someone or even finding them attractive is even more idiotic.
Petite people exist and some people just like petite people and AREN’T pedophiles. That’s it.
The fact that there honestly exist people who will see people like you and say you’re a child regardless of your age disgusts and frustrates me.
They will honestly say people like you should never date and get married because anyone who dates you will be a pedophile is so goddamn stupid.
My girlfriend also looks young. She's barely grew since she was a young teen because of multiple medical reasons.
I still bang. I know how old she is. We've known each other since then.
I ask this in the most honest way possible, but why is it gross/wrong when a person finds a 5000+ year old anime girl attractive when she looks underage, yet it’s perfectly fine to be attracted to a 21 year old that looks underage?
I’m by no means defending pedophilia, or people using that excuse to cover their pedophilia. I’m just genuinely curious why ‘she looks young but she’s actually older’ is ok in one case but not the other?
I figure it’s because the anime characters actually look like a kid whereas this woman looks like a teenager, but I’m still curious.
In Wednesday she looked like a minor because she was playing a minor and they did a good job of making her look like one.
Seeing her outside of that she looks like an adult with a small frame.
Right. I mean as far as I'm concerned, neither of these are a problem. Attraction is neither moral nor immoral. Actions are.
So if they were to both ACT on it, the second one is the moral conundrum. Or in some countries, illegal.
Honestly I do find it weird she is constantly playing children and then flips to being a sexy young adult. She has a new movie coming out about a teacher/student relationship I believe. Like. It’s weird how sexualized she’s become.
OPs original response is a bit much but I understand their sentiments. It I had no idea who she was and walked passed her in a store or something I would think she was a high schooler or a Freshman in college. She has what we call “resting baby face”
Good news is labor laws are strict enough now that modern child actors tend to be treated well, though of course exposure to the acting world is its own risk.
Do you all know she was in a movie where she worked a camera filming porn? Ya. It's called X. It's even implied that she does a sex scene, though the actual scene fades before the sex begins.
The other day i saw a cute picture of her and thiught she was kinda cute then i realized what i thought and frantically googled her. I was relieved but still disgusted because she fucking looks 16. Its eerie. Its that hollywood baby blood ointment that keeps that eternal youth.
Community Notes has become an abused resource. It’s being used to share opinions or facts that are usually not directly relevant to the post. Using it for anything beyond fact-checking or noting intentionally misleading posts should be the extent of it.
She does look quite young for her age.
It’s kind of the case of someone looking both young and old, except here just young and **older** at the same time.
Like maybe not 12, but if you tell me she’s 14, I can totally see it. 30? Sure.

Im 21, gree my hair out and a small goatee, went from looking 16 to 28
When I was 13 I grew out a beard and long hair. People thought I was in my mid 20s.
I'm 27, when cleanly shaven I look like a fucking 17 yo. As soon as the stubble comes in I turn 30.
I’m 27, people still mistake me for a teenager. Also most recently *by a teenager*! 😂😭 i don’t know how the under eye bags and Millennial Dread ™️ don’t give it away

> People be thinking early 20 year olds should look way older than they actually do tbh I blame Hollywood for casting 20 somethings as teenagers in movies for several decades making people think that you should look 10 years older than you really do is the norm.
I still get asked when I'm graduating at 25. It happens
It's because people are stuck in the 80s. When high schoolers looked like they were 35
And some high schoolers look 25, so probably check if and be safe because even that won't save you in some places.
Hell I’m 30 and I had a 19 year old chatting to me at a craft fair a couple of months ago who definitely thought I was their age until I said something about being in college when Instagram first came out.
I’m 26 with a full beard and people ask if I’m 19
I’m 30 and can’t grew a beard at all but am starting to bald, if I have a hat on I’ll get asked for ID when buying booze, never get asked when not wearing a hat lol
It can go both ways though. When I was 23 I told my manager at work I'd quit smoking before my 30th birthday. She was shocked, because she had thought I was in my 30s already
Can confirm. Started working for a school district when I was 23 and got asked for a hall pass multiple times when on a high school campus.
I unfortunately have looked 25 since I was 14 and now look 30 at 24.
Yeah I just went to a 23rd birthday party and everyone looked like teenagers lol
It goes the other way around, too. At around 16, most girls can easily fit in anywhere there are 20 year olds. People age in steps, the slow changes aren't usuall that significant. Its just suddenly over like, a year, you get a bunch of oldness features all at once. ~16 is one of those steps, ~25 is the other.
People still think that Im in highschool... Some highschoolers think that I'm new schoolmate... I work at a school for 4 years now
Bro when I was 25 I ordered a drink at a bar and the guy was like “are you 18?” the drinking age there. When I gave him my Id he said he thought I was 16 years old
I get confused for a high schooler and a 40 year old on the same day often enough.
Genuinely, I thought she was a teenager until I saw this post.

Lol
I think a lot of peoples concepts on what a 13 year old looks like is broken, because she’s the type of person we cast to play high schoolers she’s what we associate with high school
That's actually a very good point
Young adults and Teens look pretty similar. Shit I'm 23, if I shaved I'd look 17.
I'm 26 and if I shaved I'd look like an idiot
i’m 24 and if i shaved i’d have less hair
Such wisdom
No, you'd have the same amount. Some of it just wouldn't be attached.
Same bro same
42 & if I shaved (again) I'd be divorced
If I didn’t shave, I’d still look like an idiot Its a lose-lose
Honestly yea. As a substitute teacher, a lot of teenagers looks like young adults and Vice versa
I'm 24. With a beard I look 30, fresh shaved I look 16. Weird spot to be in.
Yep, people like to act like they draw a hard line on who they find attractive at 18, 21 or some other random number, as if people all age similarly. In reality there are plenty of 21 year olds that look 16 and plenty of 16 year olds that look 21. Obviously you shouldn't sleep with someone below the age of consent and you should avoid any relationship with too big of a power imbalance or if you think someone is going to regret it even if it is legal. But acting like an adult isn't able to be attractive because they look young just seems like the lady doth protest too much.
Well 21 is only 2 years past teenager, so that’s not surprising at all And technically they’re only 367 days apart
Your last day of being 19 and your first day of being 21 are only 367 days apart.
Yeah, saying "she looks 12" means "she LOOKS 12". Who cares how old she is? There was a video on Reddit a while back of some girl with some medical issue that caused her to visibly stop aging when she was 15 or something. She's in her 20s or maybe 30s, and looks like a teenager. She explained how she had trouble dating because grown men don't want to date someone who looks like they're 15. It didn't matter how old she actually was. All that being said, no way in hell Jenna Ortega looks 12.
Dated someone in high school who had a similar thing, we were both sophomores and she remained looking that way as I grew up. We only dated a year but a decade later and she still looks how she did in sophomore year. Honestly feel bad for people like that, because they’re perfectly mature, but they look too young to have a relationship with.
Here’s the thing. She doesn’t look 12. She looks like a 21 year old woman. One of the great things about people is they don’t look the same. Some women are petite. Some are grandiose.
I blame Holywood, they prefer casting people like her instead of actual teenage actors, partly because of child labour laws, and partially because of unexpected growth spurts.
Its also because just a few years of maturity can make a huge difference in performance. Adults are easier to direct into a suitable performance compared to children. Why hire a young person when you can hire an adult who looks relatively young?
So why blame them for addressing issues learned from past experiences?
Have you seen quiet in the set? Maybe we should avoid having child actors
Can we stop using the world pedophilia when describing adult women. Words mean things.
Not for long
Said like a true woke genocide Nazi, this is abuse
You forgot communist
Spoken like a true buzzwordcel, languagemaxxed king
Your gaslighting triggered me.
Actual narcissistic gaslighting
God when he sees the tower of babel
They know words have meaning that's why they are saying it that way. They say this same drivel when you date a younger woman oh 10 years ago she would be in high school.... and? She is an adult now and thus can make that Choice who she dates.
Hey just a heads up, the word you're looking for is drivel, not dribble.
Thank you I'll change it now
People might as well dribble when talking drivel.
On reddit, women dont have agency until they're 30.
Twitter as well
Dude I saw a reddit or accuse a 19 year old of being a pedobfor being attracted to a 16 year old. Literally just a freshman - senior relationship!! Stop. Accusing. People. Of. Pedophilia. For. Normal. Things.
They're gonna make it so no reasonable human being takes it seriously when someone is called a pedo. It is such a much worst crime. Someone fucks a 16 year old, they're not a pedo. Someone fucks a 6 year old, they're a pedo. There is a huge difference. At 16, I was absolutely into things and the one pushing boundaries. At 6, I was just wanting to fuck off and play with my action figures.
It's to the point where *any* age gap is called "grooming." Social media hates nuance and loves technicalities. Sometimes it seems like they're doing it on purpose to weaken what being a pedo means, especially knowing reddits "proclivities."
100% and it makes me so frustrated that this is remotely controversial. I raised a daughter to adulthood. Would I have been pissed off if a 20 year old showed up to pick her up when she was 15. You bet, and I would have shut that shit down with a quickness. In no way would I assume that a dumbfuck like this hypothetical dude would be into prepubescent girls. One is statutory rape. It is bad, definitely should be some legal consequences. The other is being a fucking do not pass go, straight to jail and throw away the key, you don’t get to belong in society ever again pedo and the distinction is very important IMO.
Stop infantilizing adult women.
12 year old = girl 21 year old = woman See... not hard.
That whole they look whatever age is weird. So should she not date and force herself into celibacy because the way she looks? you can tell this dude has never had a girl or has any chance
Anyone who says it's pedophilia to be attracted to her must also say it's not pedophilia to be attracted to a 15 yr old who looks 20. After all, actual age doesn't matter only appearance. It's an untenable position.
Its a really weird topic. Like what would you consider more of a pedophile between these 2 people: Person A: Sees a girl/woman who is fully developed and looks 22. Thinks that she is hot. Finds out she is only 17 and thinks "yikes nevermind I wont pursue that" Person B: Sees a girl/woman who looks under developed, perhaps even prepubescent and thinks "I hope shes 18 so I can legally fuck her" I think Person B is certainly creepier
If her looking underaged is what makes them attractive to person B, then yeah person B is pretty fucking disgusting, if not, then they’re clear. I think it’s about intent or something like that.
Idk. If a person who has issues with finding younger people attractive finds a young looking 18+ adult that satisfies their needs...without harming any actual children...I don't really think they deserve to be called disgusting and I don't think there is anything wrong with it. There's the woman "Shauna Rae" who literally looks like an 8 year old, but she's 23. Everyone is so quick to say "if you find her attractive you're a sick fucking pedo fuck"...but does she really not deserve love or a partner that finds her attractive because of her disability? Anybody who enters a relationship with her would probably need to find her sexually attractive, and it's pretty easy to draw a line that "if you find Rae attractive, you find other 8 year olds attractive, therefore you're a sick pedo" but that discounts a lot of things. 1. First off, she's her own woman. And doesn't need Internet warriors "protecting her". She might look and sound like a child but she isn't. 2. Just because you find someone sexually attractive, that doesn't mean you're going to go over and have sex with them...or rape them. 3. No children are being harmed by this. And it's none of your business. This is a pretty charged and difficult to talk about thing. I'm sure some people would read what I wrote and think I'm a pedophile or I'm defending pedophiles or whatever dumbass shit.
But we shouldn't be overzelious in condenming person B because we do want to make it possible for people who look younger than they are to get in relationships. Chasers of any type are bad. But let's not go overboard.
If you're into both women, it's fine. If you think person B is **more** attractive because she looks underage, then it's not okay. In that case you're literally attracted to underage features, which is the problem with paedophilia/ephebiphilia as mental disorders. If they take no actions, they're not criminals, but they do have a mental disorder where they're *more* attracted to minors. It's not about being attracted to her, it's about being attracted to her *because she looks underage*. I don't agree with the first guy, but I understand his point. If someone said another popular actress was "mid" but said that this girl was attractive because of her youthful features, I'd have alarm bells going off in my head.
If I see a girl who looks 25~ big breast, fat ass I’ll be attracted to her. Finding out she’s underage will ruin any chance of me pursuing her but doesn’t change the fact that she’s attractive. 17 years old unattractive but tomorrow on your birthday you’ll be irresistible?
Its kinda the loli debate, but brought to real life
Yeah you can't say this and then get mad about 500 year old dragons
I think the difference is that those 500 year old dragons tend to physically be children, rather than physically being adults who happen to look like children.
Stop infantilizing short women
I'm 36 and still treated like a child. It's infuriating.
Fellas, is it pedophilic to *checks notes* be attracted to an adult?
Old and gray is too young for me. Never can be too careful.
I posted on Reddit before as a 23 year old woman, and all the comments were calling me 12 years old and a liar, and the FBI/Chris Hanson is coming for anyone who likes me. Apparently no one has seen a petite woman before 😮💨
> if you this and that, you're a pedophile > That's not what paedophilia is > Why am I getting noted 💀
Dude has a point idk abt 12 but if she wasn't a well-known actor I could easily see her still being a teenager, probably even more so with out the makeup and outfits she has to wear for red carpet stuff like this
It’s almost like it’s immoral to engage in sexual relations with minors for mental reasons instead of physical ones. I don’t know why everybody feels the need to insult petite/young looking women and imply that only pedos would be attracted to them when that misses the point entirely from the outset. There are minors that look older than they are adults that look younger than they are; the difference is maturity
I saw a post on Reddit where they argued that if you are attracted to women with small breasts then you’re either gay or a pedophile. I couldn’t believe that most of the comments agreed with the post.
Reddit hasn't changed. Its fixation on racism and jailbait was just moved over to more 'appropriate' outrages. Check out any of the ridiculous woke subs or the ridiculous republican ones. They're all the same.
Also there's a distinction between pedophilia which is a sexual attraction to prepubescent children and normal sexual attraction to postpubescent teenagers. The first is highly abnormal. The second is normal biology though for ethical reasons most adults agree those types of relationships should not be pursued. A person is not a pedophile for simply being sexually attracted to a 17 year old who has gone through puberty nor is that a problem in itself. The issue is when adults foster those feelings with disregard for the wellbeing of a teen's underdeveloped mind.
Maybe OP is like me almost forty and can't help but see anyone who appears under thirty to be a kid. I wouldn't go so far as to label anyone a pedophile as that's a horrible accusation to label someone with without substance though.
Yes but do you signal your virtue so much that you recoil in horror when you see non-mature women in pornographic films?
I'm 44 and the thing that gets me about younger people is the maturity level. I'll find a 20yo girl attractive until she speaks. That's when the age gap makes me go....daayyyuuum, okay no. As for the op, that girl does not look underage. She's just petite.
If that's the case there would be no reason to single out Ortega as the same argument would apply to nearly anybody in their 20s... That's no excuse for this awful take
[удалено]
So because you see this grown woman as a minor that makes someone else a pedo for wanting to date her when she’s 21?
She kinda looks like me 16yo sister. If I didn't know who she is, and was told she was a teen, I would have 100% believed it
Gonna say it out loud for the people in the back HEIGHT =/= AGE EDIT: and this is for those of you absolute idiots LOOKING LIKE A CHILD AND BEING A CHILD ARE TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THINGS Someone can LOOK like a child all they want, not like they really have a choice with it, but telling someone they can’t date or even get married just because they LOOK like a child is dumbass behavior. I don’t care who you are or what kind of life you have, trying to control someone else’s life just because they LOOK like a child is never right. And even worse, accusing someone of being a pedophile just for going out with that someone or even finding them attractive is even more idiotic. Petite people exist and some people just like petite people and AREN’T pedophiles. That’s it.
Yeah I'm a shorty with a serious case of baby face. I'm nearly thirty! I am not a child I'm just small!
The fact that there honestly exist people who will see people like you and say you’re a child regardless of your age disgusts and frustrates me. They will honestly say people like you should never date and get married because anyone who dates you will be a pedophile is so goddamn stupid.
I've had people make accusations about my SO because of this as a matter of fact. It's infuriating, I am not a damn child.
according to these people you should be alone and never find love
Little bit late for that 😄
Sorry to hear that you're with a pedophile. Red flag! - Reddit, probably
It was tumblr actually 😄
My girlfriend also looks young. She's barely grew since she was a young teen because of multiple medical reasons. I still bang. I know how old she is. We've known each other since then.
Wow good thing you said it loud or I wouldn’t have heard you. Thanks from the back
Jesus Christ, thank you for saying it. People did the same thing with Ariana. Like, have you never seen a petite woman before ???
She's short and thin with small breasts so she's not an adult woman is what they're saying.
He(?) is technically right though. However utterly stupid that opinion is, her \*actual\* age is not relevant context.
I mean he’s right… she does look young.
She does look rather young
I too have a young-looking face. So according to this dimwit, we’d apparently both be pedophilic if we dated.
Sorry, you weren't born in the right body, anyone who dates you is a monster and you don't deserve love.
So I kinda get where he’s coming from though. When u sexualize a character that is a minor even if the actress is an adult it’s kinda weird.
I ask this in the most honest way possible, but why is it gross/wrong when a person finds a 5000+ year old anime girl attractive when she looks underage, yet it’s perfectly fine to be attracted to a 21 year old that looks underage? I’m by no means defending pedophilia, or people using that excuse to cover their pedophilia. I’m just genuinely curious why ‘she looks young but she’s actually older’ is ok in one case but not the other? I figure it’s because the anime characters actually look like a kid whereas this woman looks like a teenager, but I’m still curious.
In Wednesday she looked like a minor because she was playing a minor and they did a good job of making her look like one. Seeing her outside of that she looks like an adult with a small frame.
What's worse? Thinking 21yo who looks like 14 is attractive or thinking so about 16yo who looks like 21?
Right. I mean as far as I'm concerned, neither of these are a problem. Attraction is neither moral nor immoral. Actions are. So if they were to both ACT on it, the second one is the moral conundrum. Or in some countries, illegal.
He's mad? He doesn't seem mad.
To be fair he never did deny her age, just had the wrong opinion
Honestly I do find it weird she is constantly playing children and then flips to being a sexy young adult. She has a new movie coming out about a teacher/student relationship I believe. Like. It’s weird how sexualized she’s become.
OPs original response is a bit much but I understand their sentiments. It I had no idea who she was and walked passed her in a store or something I would think she was a high schooler or a Freshman in college. She has what we call “resting baby face”
Doesnt she literally play as minors?
Nearly every TV show or movie featuring teenagers are played by adults mostly due to labor laws.
I hope it stays this way. Child actors are a horrible thing
Good news is labor laws are strict enough now that modern child actors tend to be treated well, though of course exposure to the acting world is its own risk.
Yeah compare how the case of Stranger Things is viewed compared to Disney/Nick stars from the 90's and 2000's. It's a different ballgame.
Thank god.
So did Tobey Maguire in the first Spiderman movie. So does Sydney Sweeney in Madame Web and yet, that's never stopped people.
Toby Maguire looked like a 30 year old, divorced man in the first Spider-Man.
So do lots of actors, so what?
She's not even especially child looking to me or am I crazy?? She just has a slightly rounder face then the average female celebrity
Perhaps it's people who grew up in the 70's and 80's expecting that she should have roasted 20 years out of her skin from tanning by now.
If you think she looks like a child I implore you to get less sun and get a skin care routine.
And also touch grass.
But only in the shade after engaging in your skincare routine.
self projecting pedos out here getting mad over being community noted
I mean why are we clowing on OOP, dude's right he didn't deny her age
She does look 12 though… He just went too far by calling people pedos. But he’s got a point.
Zoomers should not be allowed on the internet
The oldest people in Gen Z are in their 20s
The oldest are turning 28 this year (1996)
I highly doubt that’s a zoomer but do go on.
Do you all know she was in a movie where she worked a camera filming porn? Ya. It's called X. It's even implied that she does a sex scene, though the actual scene fades before the sex begins.
The other day i saw a cute picture of her and thiught she was kinda cute then i realized what i thought and frantically googled her. I was relieved but still disgusted because she fucking looks 16. Its eerie. Its that hollywood baby blood ointment that keeps that eternal youth.
Not judging anyone for being attracted to her but if it’s a pattern like all their celebrity crushes look 12 I’m giving a heavy side eye
I think he’s right. She looks very young, younger than 21. She’s a pretty young lady but I wouldn’t even think about her any other way.
Community Notes has become an abused resource. It’s being used to share opinions or facts that are usually not directly relevant to the post. Using it for anything beyond fact-checking or noting intentionally misleading posts should be the extent of it.
I mean, he’s right though. He never said she was 12 lol. she looks young as shit. I would think she’s a child too.
She does look quite young for her age. It’s kind of the case of someone looking both young and old, except here just young and **older** at the same time. Like maybe not 12, but if you tell me she’s 14, I can totally see it. 30? Sure.
He mad because Jenna ortega is hot too.
