Also hate how tik tok and twitter dilute the meaning of actually serious words like this. Grooming is something specifically done to children, it’s not just a synonym for manipulation or abusive power dynamics.
It’s so annoying when people are like “they’re a baby!” And it’s a 25 year old. That’s an adult! People are acting like it’s some sin to find 20 year olds attractive when the actual crime is being a weirdo creep about it!
Yeah, infantilizing grown adults is not going to help make them stop making dumb choices, also! Like, idk about you but I did/slept with/dated/whatever a LOT I regret or am at least not proud of when I was 18-early 20s! That’s how we learn!
