Even if he has not engaged in sexual activity with minors, his regular use of a trade that does traffic in minors damages any attempt at combating CSA, because he will become the issue as his past gets more and more attention. He knows this, hence the many times that he has insisted that any sex workers he 'dated' were 20 or older. This, in itself, is an issue- that 20-year-old may have been forced onto the streets at a much younger age, which is the sort of thing that someone like him should be fighting against, instead of supporting with his dollars.
I never picked up on it originally but noticed from the great review video posted a few pages back - Lloyds very first attempt to dismiss what he did on his livestream by comparing it with "worse crimes" was to say "I've not raped anybody".
Question: How could he know? Read the experiences of people who have escaped sex work - they have to pretend that it's consensual to avoid being beaten or worse. You'd think an EX activist would know to listen to an EX to know the true reality of a system, right?
If you do the math, and look at the reality of prostitution and trafficking, anyone who regularly uses sex work victims is almost certainly a rapist.
Just like in politics, people tend to accuse others of the things they themselves are guilty of, because in their heads it is the absolute worse thing someone can be accused of (the thing they fear being found out about themselves), it makes me wonder when people start making pre-emptive denials of things they "haven't" done ... is it because deep down they realize they may have?
