Fuentes isn't right. We started increasing the age of consent from 7 years old (!) to 14+ starting 1885. An English journalist wrote an expose on how it was legal to buy children, take them to brothels, drug them, and rape them. This inspired change. Feminism came decades after.

There's a case to be made that first wave feminism helped push this along (the suffragette movement was a little bit after this and coincided its appearance in the United States), but it's more that once the industrial revolution happened, we no longer needed to marry children to each other the very nanosecond they hit puberty.

@josh i don’t know why i have to bring this up but the idea that everyone was marrying and having kids at 12 is just not accurate. average medieval peasant was married in their twenties, with women marrying slightly younger. nobles and land owners married their kids off very young to consolidate wealth and power in the family. that is all.

wrong and retard take.

I’m not reading all that, but whatever it is you’re comparing it to you fingering kindergartens in an elementary broom closet. not the same. attempt sepuku.

@applejack @eTerrorist @josh Not a single person on earth will ever see a pony advocating for fucking 12 year olds and go "Huh, he's got a point."
That will literally never happen.
@Eris @applejack @eTerrorist @josh Even if fucking 12 year olds were morally okay you know its proponents aren't because they literally cannot cope with a grown woman. It's just post-facto justification for raping kids, it's not like you're actually going to stick with them if a legal girl is so repulsive that you can't just get over it and play the hand you're dealt.

It's not trad or cool, it's just being a pedo.
@stevejail @applejack @eTerrorist @josh @stevejail @applejack @eTerrorist @josh If not fucking 12 year olds is a jewish plot then I fully embrace Tikkun Olam and welcome our jewish masters.
@Eris @applejack @eTerrorist @josh The Jew giveth us 9 year old virgins, and the Jew taketh them.
