Unfortunately being a creep towards children is a common trope in all kinds of media globally.
It’s a fictional story, not a research paper.
Fictional stories are inspired by real life..and from what I know sexual assault of a minor doesn't get glazed over as if it never happened
Fictional stories are *sometimes* inspired by real life. A lot of the time they’re just fictional stories about fictional people doing whatever the writer wants them to do.
And that's how it shows the authors true face... in this case it's either an ignorant idiot or a pervert ...you can't hide behind the veil of fiction to promote sexism ,racism, etc, that doesn't give you any immunity
This is what happens when a straight man writes a gay love story.. Im sorry but this is not how real life works
