Back around 1990, I recall discussing these issues with our adult catechism class, mostly women. (My wife taught Sunday school, so I was killing time.) I mentioned that there was a group called NAMBLA, North American Man Boy Love Association, whose goal was legalize sex between adult men and boys. They were incredulous. I never thought anyone would take NAMBLA as anything other than a bunch of perverts.
Now they are more "mainstream" than we are.
Remember Gary Studds?
His Massachusetts district kept re-electing him after it was proven he was having sex with a male intern.
Oh yeah—it gets better:

At the end of the article:
“In a 2018 lawsuit, Studds was accused of sexual misconduct toward students at Saint Paul’s School in Concord, NH, while he was a teacher there in the 1960s”.
