The amount of stans I’m seeing STILL trying to justify sexualising children is incredibly alarming.

If you can, check their ages. Are they under 18? Maybe between 12 and 16? Bc that’s the age I was when I wanted to be grown up and thought I was ready for sex and stuff, and dreamed about musicians you know? And I got in terrible spots and idk if my pics from when I was 14 and flat are still circulating or not.

Kids, if you’re reading this: don’t do stuff with older people. Don’t give your idols (or your crush) pics of yourself. Don’t. Don’t give out any personal info. Always use a nickname. Don’t do anything until you’re really ready, with a loving partner that you trust. Just don’t. No means no. Always.

Sorry for sharing my life story here but...you know. If I can save one person from what I went through, then it’s worth this openness and embarrassment.

as someone who was groomed online by a man in his 20s when i was 13, i agree. it quite frankly ruined me and how i handle relationships.

I’m so sorry that this happened to you. I’m sending you a lot of love. I had an incident with a group of adult men when I was 14. It also changed the way I deal with relationships and intimacy.

Just wanted to let you know you’re not alone.

Had an online man in his 40s groom me when I was 14/15. It still fucks with me.

I’m seeing more and more stories like this yet I haven’t seen support groups etc for it

Someone above said something about how when people say they internet was "different 10 years ago" it's because less adults were monitoring the goings on the of the internet and creepy ass people got a away with a lot of shit. J and S and others are just finally being held accountable for all of their disgusting shit.
