    Come on, don’t water down that term. For her species she was fully developed and presented as and portrayed by an adult human. He was a possessive creep but not a pedophile.

      It’s not the internet if we don’t make broad generalizations for the sake of moral pseudo-superiority.

        1. Pedophilia has to do with physical appearance (attaction to prepubescence).
        2. She was like 20-25% of the way through her lifespan.

        Saying “she was 2 years old” would only mean something if she had a similar developmental cycle to humans.

          Pedophilia is an age thing. You can try to normalize it all you want, but it just comes off sounding like a Lolicon argument. “She’s physically mature at that age”, sounds a lot like “But she only looks like a child…she’s actually 200 years old.”
