It’s not the same if they raised them since they were 4 or 5 years old. The way you’re trying to justify a 200 year old person entering a sxual relationship with a child they raised from age 5 or so is just gross. Seek help
Ohh no babe Ur the one who needs to be checked cuz u can't differentiate between fiction and nonfiction and its not gross to me cuz I KNOW ITS FICTION
You’re too far gone and that’s gross
Hypocrisy hahahaha i saw ur reads giving 4 stars with rapes and tag as interesting and want more hmmm...ヽ༼⁰o⁰；༽ノ
Uhmm yeah that’s not the same thing as pedophilia. Gross. Bye
Based on clinical and legal definitions, a 200-year-old witch falling in love with a 18/19-year-old is not technically pedophilia, but it is a classic example of a "May-December" or high-age-gap fantasy romance.
Here is a breakdown of why, based on definitions of pedophilia and ethical considerations:
1. The Legal and Clinical Definition
Pedophilia: Defined by the DSM-5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) as a sexual attraction to prepubescent children, generally aged 13 or younger.
Age of Consent: In most modern legal systems, a 18/19-year-old is a legal adult. A 18-year-old has reached full puberty and is intellectually capable of consenting.
Hebephilia/Ephebophilia: Attraction to young adolescents (11-14) is sometimes called hebephilia, and attraction to late-stage adolescents (15-16) is called ephebophilia, which are different from pedophilia.
2. The Fantasy/Supernatural Context
In fiction, this trope (e.g., vampires, fae, witches) is common and generally not seen as pedophilia because the younger person is not a minor.
Power Dynamics: Although not pedophilia, such a massive age gap (200 vs. 18/19) often involves a huge power imbalance, which can be seen as predatory or "creepy" depending on how the older character uses their knowledge, experience, or magic to influence the younger one.
Immature Adult: If the 200-year-old takes advantage of the 18-year-old’s lack of life experience, it is viewed as an unethical or predatory relationship, rather than a psychological disorder.
Summary
If the 18-year-old is an adult, it is not pedophilia. However, it is an extreme age gap that frequently raises questions about power dynamics and coercion, even if both parties are legal adults.
