Uh… In some places of the world goverment will let you marry children. Doesn’t stop me from looking at those people like pedos, molesters and rapist. Doesn’t matter to me that their “law” permits it. This guy may not be as bad, but I don’t like him.

Feel free not to like him, but it seems very biased to assume a 17 year old cannot consent to sexual relations with a 23 year old, but a 18 year old totally can. In the Western world a big majority of people have their first sexual experiences in their teenage years. Naturally, age gaps happen.
On a further note, you might want to look up terms like ephebophilia, hebephilia and pedophilia before accusing people of being pedos. And neither does a victim need to be underage for a perpetrator to be molesting them, nor are child molesters necessarily pedophiles. The majority of child molesters has no pedophilic tendencies.

Maybe I am biased, but that’s because my sister, when she was 17, she had 6 years older “boyfriend” than her. I was the only one in my family who felt like it was weird, but nobody listened to me. It didn’t end well for her.
You have to put the line somewhere. If 17 is fine, somebody can say, what is just one more year? 16 should be fine too. And then, 15 is fine too. And so on. The line has to be somewhere.
Those terms that you wrote… it seems to me like those are just some pedo apologist shit. Probably only pedophiles who don’t want to be called pedophiles are using them.
