tw / pedophilia

anw ,, ej laure having sex w bugoy when she was 20 while bugoy was 15 is undeniably disgusting. at her big age as an adult, she should've alr known better than to engage in a relationship AND to hv a baby w a minor. how has she not been jailed yet 💀💀
to anyone who’s going to defend this ,, i beg of u to pls understand power dynamics. us minors are allowed to develop crushes on older ppl bc it’s harmless. it’s not th same as an adult—who clearly has the advantage in this situation—reciprocating our feelings.
as adults, they’re always to be held responsible of their decisions, including their choice to return intimacy w a minor. they KNOW what they’re doing as their mentality‘s more matured & developed. they’re in the position to take advantage of a minor’s feelings & naivety.
th minor won’t realize th severity of th situation bc they’d only view it as their crush returning their feelings. in some cases where they grow older, it’ll continue to get worse bc they’ve alr gone thru sm manipulation that they choose to disregard th red flags present.
12 being th age of consent in th ph will never justify pedophilia. th age of consent laws will never be a justifiable defense over an adult’s predatory behavior towards a minor. th age of consent laws should not excuse a 20 yr old pursuing a relationship w a 15 yr old.
hello !! correction lang: the proper term to describe th act is “ephebophilia” which is attraction towards those around ages 14-19, whereas “pedophilia” is towards children aged 13 n below. im sorry for misusing th wrong term, but th points ive made in th thread still stand.
this is sorta blowing up which is provoking my anxiety lmao but relieved tht ppl r speaking up ab it n r also educating others. ill try 2 search on my own, but if may alam kayong charity orgs para sa victims ng pedophilia, grooming, etc. pls reply w em or dm me so i could add !!
tw / grooming

last tweet (i think) sa issue: th fact that they waited to publicize their relationship when bugoy turned 18 is another gross speculation. just bc he‘s now of legal age doesn’t erase th fact that ej still pursued him when he was a minor. it’s grooming, luv.
tw / rape, pedophilia & ephebophilia, grooming

• “mas malala kung nirape niya si bugoy” — i mean . it’s already classified as statutory rape elsewhere. regardless of circumstances, a minor can’t consent to sexual activities w an adult. there’s clear sense of manipulation there.
• “pano kung si bugoy nag-initiate” — paulit-ulit na lmao. doesn’t give th adult th pass to reciprocate. th adult must know their responsibility as th one who has th clear advantage in th situation. they shouldn’t stimulate th situation to turn into sumn more intimate.
• “pano mo nalaman kung sino unang pumatol” — we don’t know that, true, but it doesn’t matter. same concept from th 2nd bullet-point is to be applied. if a person that ure aware is a minor, is crushing on/flirting w u at ur big age, will u return th gesture?
• “magulang ko ___ age gap” — most likely they got together when they were alr consenting adults, which isn’t on th same level of severity. less of an uproar kung they started dating when 18 si bugoy, but grooming him from 15-18 is th issue here.
• “let them be happy lalo na’t kung walang problem both families” — and that sort of mindset is exactly why these kinds of relationships (prompted by predatory behavior & grooming) is normalized in th ph.
• lastly, i didnt do this for “cancel culture” nor “clout”. saw all th positivity n knew that i couldn’t stay silent. not telling u 2 cancel anyone, but to just be aware of th severity of th situation na sadly, was pushed thru due to shitty age of consent laws. bye 🚪🏃🏻
