Children cannot give consent. Teenagers do not have equal footing in power circles to give consent to an adult. Children are innocent, even if you hate them. Teens do not have "consensual relations"hips with grown men.

"Barely legal" is jargon for creeps.

***TW***: CSA

I was groomed by a deputy at my summer job when I was 15. He and several other deputies at our sheriff's department schooled me on RCWs in Washington at the time. They would say things like, "She's still just jail bait." And "it's only communication with a minor for immoral purposes once you're 16."

And I did not know what to do with that. I went to work at my summer job at the sheriff's department because I once was interested in a career in justice. But there was no justice there.

The female deputy who was my supervisor told me I was a nuisance for attracting their attention. Like so many horrible women of the day, she blamed a child for adult "men's" attention and lascivious desires, even as I sat at my typewriter, re-doing fingerprint cards all day. Even as these creeps came through our office and draped themselves around my station. Even as I attempted to work, get back to work from their distracting attention and raucous words and declarations that made no sense to me.

I tried being a grey rock--they just stayed there and laughed. Irma would sometimes run them off, but mostly she would look at me and make noises of disgust--as if I enjoyed what those du***ss "men" were doing.

I was a child. Out in the world. Growing.

But the world is full of predators, and many of them are in law enforcement. I stopped trusting our system at 15. And it all came true.

I will never consent to this world and its exploitation of children and women for the sexual desires and piccadillos and grotesque novelty seeking of creeps.

There is NEVER CONSENT with children because they will never be on par with the manipulative power of predatory adults.
