So, my good friend (18m) had a falling out with his ex (19m) because the ex bullied him and also because he is apparently dating a 16f, so my friend thinks he is a pedophile for obvious reasons (adult + minor).

I can see why this would be considered bad but also, when I turn 16, my girlfriend will be 19 too, as I am currently a young sophomore who is about 3 years younger than her girlfriend, a senior.

I gave a more extreme example to demonstrate that your "they are the same numerically" idea is flawed

You proved nothing. You simple made a different point using the same system in a different manner. If one bee sting doesn't kill you let me make bee stings sound more lethal by saying 200 bee stings in a row would. 🥸

Your critical thinking skills are somewhat lacking, I'm sorry to say

Who cares. 78% of the states in America agree with what I said, but not what with you said. The age of consent is 16 and higher (in 78% ). Now go cry in a dumpster or whatever you do in your free time
