    Against my better judgement I’m gonna try to respond to this.

    You don’t think there’s an evolutionary advantage to getting at girls first when they’re young as possible before other guys do?

    To begin with, prepubescent girls can’t get pregnant. After that, young girls have an increased risk of not being able to carry a pregnancy to term, dying in childbirth, and of birthing children who end up underdeveloped.

    You don’t think that advantage from that behavior got passed into genes?

    No, then it would likely be more commonplace instead of being abnormal.

    Youth generally comes with all the indicators of health.

    I strongly disagree with this assessment when it comes to people who have not physically developed into adulthood yet.

    Behavior is not generally without reason. Everything is because of reasons.

    Sometimes those reasons are because something has gone wrong. Or because of random chance. To think every behavior fulfills an intended purpose that is evolutionarily beneficial is unscientific in my view.

      Ok so I’m not taking about pedophilia I guess. It’s the middle ground one where’s it’s post puberty because that’s what makes sense. Gotta also consider the social aspect of it. Claiming a girl while she’s still so young is likely to mean she’s around when she can have a baby.

      You’re right that some behavior can be totally random because of an error and the error is reason, but it really seems like there’s a LOT of pedophiles and rapists. I can only imagine there’s a much more compelling reason.

      Edit: I’m glad you’re not one of the trolls.

        “getting at girls” “as young as possible”, even post-puberty is basically pedophilia, do you not agree?
