Pedophilia is crime because it involves a child who cannot consent.
Two people of the same gender being romantic is usually consensual, which makes all the difference.
Hope this helps you! The difference between the two is consent, which is very important. I know stonetoss likes to believe that there is a homosexual-relationship-to-pedophilia pipeline, but there isn’t.
If you are going to write political comics, please make sure you are well informed on the issues you are trying to speak on.
