![]() Hahahahaha what the fuck?! this reeks of “letter of the law”! this is like saying “a 50-year-old pursuing a 19-year-old is not disgusting”! like legally it may not be “pedophilia” in the sense of the word but morally? it completely and utterly falls under it. At most, the relationship is a bit creepy because of the age difference, but it is certainly not pedophilic. Her age isn’t stated, but she is clearly not pre-pubescent, and is well past the age when it was acceptable to marry in a medieval society. Allrianne may be a “child” in the sense that she is not a fully mature adult who has grown weary of the world, but she is not literally a child. but i think a good place to begin is your argument about pedophilia.Ī pedophile is sexually attracted to children who are pre-pubescent. Hey, libralita? there is… so much wrong with this reply, idek where to start. This is honestly such a weird and weak argument. It’s not feminine to want to fight but it is also And they’re “girly” because they are althei andįollow those gender norms. The conflict comes from Adolin having courted Vin doesn’t trust her but in Hero of Ages they seem to be on good terms.Īgain, I don’t know what you mean by “stereotypically girly”įor the girls that Adolin courts. I don’t recall the book saying that other traditionally Style of the time for noble women both Mistborn and The Way of Kings. Traditionally feminine? They were dresses, makeup, etc? Because that’s the What does “girly” mean? Do you mean that they are described as Your comments on the female characters are still veryĬonfusing to me.

I will quote this: “A pedophile is sexually attracted to children whoĪre pre-pubescent. ![]() There’s a really good response to this idea that this relationship With a child, they’re teasing him and laughing that he’s a stuffy old fart with The crew aren’t really heavily judging Breeze because he’s Her age is never stated but I highly doubt Brandon would make her under To the list of things to not like about him. Underage or not, no one likes Straff Venture. So he could have Misting/Mistborn children. Remember correctly, he went after younger women so he could make more bastards Recall the book saying that Straff explicated went after underage girls. I can’t remember any names right now, but most of the girls that Adolin courts fall into this mold.
