    You think he’s still a victim even if he doesn’t regret it for the rest of his life?

    Is there any point where he gets to speak for himself on the matter, even if he disagrees with you?

      He was a child raped by an adult in a position of trust. He is a rape victim, because he could not provide free, informed consent.

        He is a rape victim, because he could not provide free, informed consent.

        Why not?

            When do you think he would be capable of providing consent?

              When he becomes an adult. Regardless of how he feels about the situation when he becomes an adult, it’s still rape.

                When does he become an adult? You can use numbers to be more specific instead of vague words like “child” and “adult.”

                I know plenty of people who society would consider adults, but they have the mentality of children. Should they be allowed to consent?

      So according to your own words child pornography is ok if the child in the pictures said it’s allowed. Adults can have sex with any age of child as long as they don’t regret it. This was an eleven year old child and you think they can give consent to an adult for sex.
