       Issues in Shipping: Moonstalker is disgusting.
       By: Gemclops Date: August 6, 2017, 5:58 pm

       Whoever ships Moonstalker should understand that normalizing
       Pedophilla is disgusting.
       If we wanna get technical Tui said "Well, four to seven are
       teens, seven to eight are young adults, and everything above
       adults." So Darkstalker was only a small handful of years older
       and not a proper adult while Moon was probably [about my age] in
       her early teens.- Vulacntus
       Moonstalker is a ship between an adult and a child; yes, even
       mentally, Darkstalker is an adult. He was seven when he was
       trapped. -Icarus
       Adding on to this, saying Moon will grow up is like saying that
       a Pedophill can date a child because the child will grow up.
       Another thing Moon is 13-14 if early teens. As Darkstalker is
       17-19 if he's a young adult.
       In America, depending on the state, 17-19 is considered an adult
       age. That makes Darkstalker an adult, so its Pedophilla.
       My opinion shortened. MOONSTALKER. IS. PEDOPHILLA. NORMALIZING.
       PEDOPHILLA. IS. DISGUSTING.

       [font=arial]Here's the thing about what I said:
       After that, I specifically said that I never saw their
       relationship as much beyond platonic. Because I do understand
       that pedophilia is wrong.
       The main problem for me is: I have to turn a blind eye to it a
       lot in other fandoms that my mind has stopped seeing it as an
       issue at this point.
       And I notice something: Moonstalker seems to be the only ship
       that gets bashed like this. Whirlpool was already an adult when
       Coral was planning to marry him off to one of her dragonets.
       I've seen people ship Whirlnami and I've barely seen others bat
       an eye. Turteril too, yet people don't see the issue there
       either.
       Do we even know if it's wrong in this world? These are dragons
       in a fantasy world that we really don't know that much about.
       (As a side note; I don't think they meant it was okay to ship an
       adult with a child because the child would grow up. They
       probably meant that it would be okay as a ship if the child was
       an adult/when the child grows up)[/font]

       Moonstalker may be pedophilia NOW, but it WILL NOT be in 5-10
       years.  What?  Are you saying that my grandparents weren't
       allowed to get married because my grandma was once 20 at the
       same time my grandfather was 15?
       Please, please see the big picture before ranting.  It's
       annoying.

       /dod spoilers in this post/
       Hydra, that doesn't matter because if youre shipping them in the
       books, that means at the current point in time of canon, which
       you are, then it's pedophilia and gross. Anyways, darkstalker is
       peacemaker now, and is the dragon equivalent of like a
       pre-schooler or kindergartener, so Moon can grow up but
       darkstalker doesnt exist anymore anyways.
       So lets see. Your argument is that Moon will grow up. But, at
       the time the books are at, Moon isn't an adult and Darkstalker
       doesn't actually exist anymore. So Moon never got to the dragon
       age of adulthood while Darkstalker existed.

       fanfics where you can change the world however you want and that
       includes making Moonstalker a perfectly legitimate ship))[/font]

       yes, fanfics exist, but that doesnt stop that the base of the
       ship is gross. and to hydra, where else do you ship them? did
       you want the ship to happen in the book? then you shipped them
       in the timeline of the books. i dont know why it doesn't bother
       you at all, but i guess i cant change your mind and make you see
       how disturbing it is :/

       [font=arial]Who said we ever wanted it to actually happen? I,
       for one, know it'd never happen in canon so I don't
       bother.[/font]

       I think it would be cool to have it happen in the books, but I
       know it never will.  I ask you again, please stop putting words
       into my mouth.  I get that I'll never make you understand that
       it isn't disgusting.  I never said they should "hook up"
       immediately, I never think that for any of my ships.  You just
       don't get it.

       I was 12 when I had a crush on a 16 year old. It's been 2 years
       since he moved, and I'm 14 now, but I still love him. If he
       moved back he'd be 18. Crushes that are a few years apart
       happen, especially when maturity is put in. I was pretty mature
       when I was 12, but my crush wasn't at all, he was still young
       mentally, so we were really only 2ish years apart. I'd still
       approve. Considering that Moon and Darkstalker are not that
       apart from me and my crush, I don't mind. I don't even ship it.
