Lily O’Farrell of @VulgaDrawings drew this comic illustrating how gross and creepy it is when grown ass men hit on young girls. Here’s a few words from the artist:
“Men will be like ‘I didn’t know how old she was’ but then show off how much they know about WW2 history.”

Yes, but… https://www.buildquizzes.com/QRDJMMN
Literally all the girls in that quiz look super young, definitely teenagers even with makeup on.
There is no “but”. Just stop harassing women, especially girls.
I guessed within a year of most of those girls. Perhaps people raised as girls are more familiar with how they look at various ages, but that doesn’t excuse you from *asking* how old someone is before you crack onto them.
When I was 13 I got caught in a riptide while sea-swimming, and was rescued by a lad of 18. We got chatting while we swam back to shore, just friendly. I told him I was staying with my aunt, and he asked how old I was. When I told him, his eyebrows shot up. I was wearing a one-piece swimsuit, as covering as the standard kind can get, but he had thought I was his own age, fairly enough, because I did have the figure of a grown woman at the time. He didn’t get nasty about it; instead he kindly delivered me to my aunt and thanked me for a fun chat. That’s how such things should go. Rethink your choices.
I had babyface all the way into my early 30s, and were often mistaken for being 14 years old… and guess what? Every time the guys who hit on me thinking I was super young was often upset to find out that I was the same age as them… or older. They definitely knew what they were doing looking for teenage girls like that otherwise they wouldn’t be so upset to find out that I was of legal age.
That was so funny.
yeah I mean this is pretty real. the thing is at that age the attention can sometimes even feel a bit flattering; you may not know any better. I remember a guy in his 20s chatting me up, telling me I was beautiful and asking how old I was, and THEN asking for my phone number. I was 15 and thought I was grown up, and these kinds of predators count on that.
