Ephebophilia is when an older adult is sexually attracted to post-pubescent teenagers or adolescents but still biologically adults—usually those in the age range 15–19. https://simple.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ephebophilia

I believe that ephebophilia is not morally wrong as long as it’s between two consenting adults. For example if a 18 year woman wants to have sex with me a 26 year old man then I do not think it’s morally wrong because me and her are both consenting adults so what we are doing is completely harmless.

      Because I don’t care about power dynamics or maturity levels.

      You do understand that what you’re saying here is that you choose to completely disregard whether something has been proven to harm others so long as it’s legal or you subjectively do not object to it?

      You’ll make a great abuser, please never go into a relationship.
