I just wanted the reaction of people from different cultures on this issue.
I came across this video of a girl saying she was groomed at 17 by a 23 year old.
I know in some states of America and some counties this is technically grooming, but is it really an issue?
There was no real other abuse mentioned from what I heard in the video, just mild arguments between the two before they broke up.
I don't know if it's because I'm English but I was confused by this video and actually thought it might be a joke at first.
In England we leave school at 16, that's also our age of consent. And it's normal for our 17 year olds to be going out drinking and going to night clubs.
I myself lost my virginity at 18 to a girl in her early 20s and later was seeing someone in a romantic way when I was 19 and she was 27.
It's been a long while since I was as young as 17 or 23 but I don't remember that age gap being such a big deal, at least where I live.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
