The term "minor attracted adult" has been floating around for a while.
I like it a lot but it can still be a little too inclusive. For instance "minor" can cover a very large age range (almost anyone below 18). Perhaps this is it's weakness, perhaps the teenboy lovers amongst us would see it as a plus. But most people I've used it with in the non-BL world have taken to mean younger children (as opposed to teens) so it seems to work ok for me. The big plus for this term is that it includes the girl lovers and those who are attracted to both genders and it indicates that there is a significant age difference between the "adult" and the ones to whom said adult is attracted (of course some of us know we are minor attracted before we become adults... but there you go). Either way I think having the term "ATTACTION" in the title is the most important part of whatever term we use. I like it because it most accurately describes the defining element of what we experience, without any suggestion of how we behave in response to it. Much better than the pop culture idea that attraction = sexually active. Blessings Cat. ![]() |
