Cody, I can see where you are coming from, being a father of a 16 yr old yourself. I can.
However, I hate to be the one to break the news to you, but pedophiles aren't looking for young women in their later teens. That's not what pedophilia is. Cops consider the older guys who are looking for 14 yr olds, 10 yr olds, 8 yr olds or younger, as pedophiles. You seem to be trying to stretch the realm of pedophilia to include anyone under the age of 18, and that simply isn't how society sees it. Sorry. Like Eros has been trying to tell you all day, it is the age of consent laws that have the final say in what's what.
You as a father certainly have a right to get all bent out of shape at some guy if he's involved with your daughter, but what about your daughter's feelings? I've seen it before..... a younger girl of 17-18ish having a sexual relationship with a 43 yr old. I knew this couple about 10 years ago, they had been together (in that special way) for 4 years already when I met them. Basically her dad put them through hell, but in the end... guess what? That's right.... they are together. From what I remember, she eventually had enough of her dad's interference, told him to fuck off and she moved out on her own.
Now, you can put yourself in their place and say you'd call the cops on him, put him in jail, nail him with statutory rape, whatever..... but sometimes when you do that you end up losing your daughter all together, forever. I have seen THAT happen as well. I suppose sometimes a dad just has to trust that he brought his daughter up the best he could and leave it at that, and hope she does the right thing, makes the right choices.
AND...this post has nothing to do with "rationalizing" anything bro. It has to do with the fact that not every issue is as cut & dried/black & white as you seem to want it to be. As I said on page one of this thread, there are certain circumstances that tend to become "the exception", and what it all boils down to is this....... shit happens. Hopefully not to YOUR daughter, but it does happen. Sometimes it is the older guy's fault and hopefully those guys get what they deserve...... but sometimes the girl is mature for her age and is exercising her right to see who she wants, and in some of those cases there isn't a damn thing daddy can do about it.
Lastly, not everyong taking the poll was thinking the way you said, that they would fuck the 16 yr old "<i>because she's 16</i>"..... for many of the webmasters here it wasn't all that long ago that they were in that age bracket and dating 16-17 yr old girls anyway. I believe most guys out in a mall or at a park think similar things, one being that "the crop of high-school girls get hotter-looking every year".... I've heard that said a lot over the years actually. I don't yell "Pedophile!" every time I hear it. You are assuming the worst in all the "yes" people, and that simply isn't right.
But like I said, I can see and empathize with where you're coming from, you being a dad.
