Well, now you're only fifteen, And you look good.
I'll take you under my wing, Somebody should.
They've persuasive ways, And you'll believe what they say.

It's just a question of time, And it's running out for you.
It won't be long until you'll do, Exactly what they want you to…

I catch myself humming old songs every now and then and have this moment way too often.

daltotron ,

No no, see, it's gotta uhh, be ironic. It's ironic, they're ironically calling all the other pedo artists out, see. It's, no, see, it's because they're just being ironic and edgy as a tasteless kind of joke, see.

I dunno man. The point at which it becomes totally indefensible is the point at which the 30 or late 20's artist is sleeping or having romantic relationships with like, kids, basically. I dunno. I respect the right of artists to write songs about shitty or super insanely weird subject matter but goddamn these guys are just confessing that they're pedophiles straight up huh

There was a band that performed at Disneyland for just one summer in 1981 named Halyx that wrote the song "Jailbait" with lyrics like this:

I, I, I said hey little cutie, I caught that look in your eyes, yes I did

Ah, ah, ooh, you make me weak, ooh, you give me butterflies

I said hey little cutie, looking for somewhere to go

You know you make me feel wanted, but not like it's a honorable

Why don't you wait till you're older, yeah yeah, you'll understand

Interestingly, this was written by the female lead singer about the recent introduction of age of consent laws.

Also, not usually one to kink shame but the fact that one of the most mainstream fetishes is "school girl" is rather problematic to me.

vithigar ,

I'll lead by saying that's not a fetish of mine, but I kind of get it, and in a way that has nothing to do with age.

If a person who is attracted to girls is surrounded by almost exclusively girls in school uniforms during several formative years of their life in which their sexual interests are initially developing, is it that strange they'd grow to find the uniform attractive?

Maybe the fact that I didn't go to a school with uniforms is part of the reason I don't share that particular taste.

GeoGio7 ,

Personally I always thought it was just because it looked good, like it's stylish and esthetically pleasing. But now as an adult I realize that for a lot of people it is about that connection to younger girls. Gross.

Leviathan ,

Yeah that's definitely it for me. Schoolgirl uniforms do nothing for me, but if my girlfriend dons some 2000-2005 styles it definitely does it for me.

There's an old polish classic song where the signer in one fragment sings that "she's very underage".

Welp.

and another mythology is built

FuryMaker ,

"You're so hot, teasing me
So, you're blue, but I can't take a chance on a chick like you
That's something I couldn't do

There's that look in your eyes
I can read in your face that your feelings are driving you wild
Ah, but girl, you're only a child"

I guess ABBA singers did the right thing?

Probably only because their wives were, like, right there.

mPony ,

    Little girl don't notice me
    watching as she innocently plays.
    She can't see me staring at her
    Because I'm always wearing shades.

    Art Lover by The Kinks

    The cover by Lambchop gives it the perfect vibe.

    Wasn't Sharona 16 when they wrote the song?

    The 1970s and 1980s in Europe were a terrible time in regards of pedophilia. In the aftermath of the sexual revolution and the decriminalization of homosexuality, some people thought everything goes and weren't really stopped. Take people like Volker Beck in Germany who openly demanded pedophilia to be decriminalized or Daniel Cohn-Bendit, who wrote a text about having sex with a 6 year old (he was working at a Kindergarten at the time). And they were by far not the only people who went way too far.

    Volker Beck later became a member of the German parliament (for ~20 years), a leading figure of green politics and is currently serving as the president of the German–Israeli Society. Daniel Cohn-Bendit later became a member of the European parliament (for ~20 years)...

    Stray Cat Blues, Rolling Stones (unfortunately; man it's a great song if not for the... Entire subject)

    NewAgeOldPerson ,

    I am not trying to be edgy. Just a very recent revelation..I didn't know until that movie that Elvis was dating a 14 year old. So the only progress in this scenario we made as humanity from Mohammed to Elvis was one year. I guess that's progress?

    But honestly, reading the lyrics of classic rock has really really hindered my ability to listen to some of my favorite bands.

    Just a light example. The Animals. Love. Don't let me me misunderstood.... Comes off as domestic abuse apologist. Maybe I'm way off. I'll show myself out.

    lemonmelon ,

    Nina Simone recorded it a year before The Animals. At the time, it was regarded as a metaphorical statement about the Civil Rights Movement.

    mojofrododojo ,

    and it's fantastic. highly recommend.

    MeDuViNoX ,

    Probably an unpopular opinion, but pedo or not, I've always hated Elvis and his music.

    RecluseRamble ,

    So the only progress in this scenario we made as humanity from Mohammed to Elvis was one year.

    Aisha was 6 when they married and 9 when "the marriage was consummated", so it's more than one year. Still not great but pedophiles won't ever completely vanish.

    OldWoodFrame ,

    Mohammad to Elvis. Famously equivalent figures in their respective day.

    Cryophilia ,

    I mean...

    GraniteM ,

    Into the Night by Benny Mardones wouldn't necessarily sound so bad, but then you see the video and hooooooo boy it is not okay, not okay at all.

    hessenjunge , (edited )

    The song by itself could be seen as someone reminiscing about teenage love, I.e. both parties are teens.

    The video is quite disturbing though. They could have shown a teenage couple while the singer is the narrator. Instead they went full pedo.
