“I don’t care what adults do, but this involves children. It’s outrageous.”

Due to the Overton Window, even if this is not signed into law, or if it is overturned in court as unconstitutional, it seems it will at some point be accepted practice. At that point, sex with children, which will start with some restriction, say 13 years old, will inexorably move towards sex on the birthing table. The first time I saw sex with children touted...lauded...was in the novel “Lolita.” I was a child when I read it and I was astonished that it was considered “art.” But that is probably the Overton Window’s start of moving society towards okaying sex with children.

The Overton Window:

I wouldn't say it was touted, any more than a murder mystery touts murder. Literature is full of evil people.
