Should I be cautious at all that my younger 14 year old brother has a date with an 18 year old girl?

This is gross, that girl is a pedophile and the fact that you’re asking the question in the manner you are makes me think this is some fantasy bullshit

@SW-User Tecnically, she’s an ephebophile.

@LeopoldBloom Ephebophilia is the primary sexual interest in mid-to-late adolescents, generally ages 15 to 19. He's 14 so "technically", she's a hebephile.
🤭 I can copy & paste too, to seem smart. Maybe I should change my screen name to Dr. or Professor. 😂

@RogueLoner You're right, hebephilia is "in between" pedophilia and ephebophilia. It's important to distinguish as the colloquial use of "pedophilia" to refer to adults attracted to anyone under age 18 is misleading.

Do you think I copied and pasted the word "ephebophile?"
