Reply #283: That's not what I'm saying at all- people are missing the point:

Some gay youths, not exposed to any sort of a "gay community", lacking support from peers or parents, will very likely consider, as I did, extending the set of partners they see as eligible to include people over the age of eighteen.

Now, ask yourself: why might someone feel that way? Here's a hint: it has nothing at all to do with what type of person is, or what age a person is, in such a situation, but rather, the availability of a willing partner.

Sorry to put it in such cold and clinical terms, but I feel I need to be very specific at this point.
