I don't like saying the full phrase, it's a disgusting merger of words that shouldn't exist.
FYI, the current accepted term is csam. Children sexual abuse material. The reason why CP is wrong is that porn implies, or should imply, that there's consent on the sexual act, and children cannot consent.
You are right, it's a disgusting merger exactly because it implies something that's absolutely incorrect and wrong.
If we are pedantic, I'm not sure if "children cannot consent" is correct. Children at 16 are mature enough to give consent in legal context, we as a society just frown upon older adults mingling with them.
When I was 16 I would have totally posed for porn and I would have been completely consenting. But it would have been illegal. I wonder where we should draw the line, and if the current one is the best one.
buddy, theres a whole range of ages between 0 and 16, and i use that number 0 advisedly.
Legally speaking children can't consent, which is why it's illegal and the basis of my statement. I wasn't being pedantic, I was showing a new terminology.
Different legislations have different consent ages, but in the internet we should go by the highest one since anything can be viewed from anywhere.
Very true, thanks for your sensitivity @dumbass
It's pronounced "doo mah."
