even if dude was 20 having sex with a 16-17 year old (illegal) we gotta stop calling dude a pedo unless hes diddling literal children. It takes the meaning away from the word.

Tf do you mean, takes away the meaning? It means what it is and if a grown ass man is going around grooming teenage girls, he doesn’t deserve the distinction.

It’s also always the most suspicious dudes who wanna be like “aktually, it’s ephebophile”

The severity is not lost on me that this situation isn’t as bad as it could’ve been and Giddey isn’t a textbook pedophile. And I understand primal instincts don’t give a fuck about laws and societal norms. But there’s a pretty dense moral line he allegedly crossed and it’s like one of the top 5 easiest laws to not break.
