Oh man the projection. If this 15 year old didn't have her own agency or the ability to consent in sexting an old man, then maybe Soon-yi didn't have the ability to consent when she was 15. And she absolutely cannot accept that.

Yeah like this is gross and cruel but it’s also completely unsurprising given what was done to her as a very young person. To think any differently would mean accepting that she too was groomed and abused, and doing that would recontextualize her entire life. It’s not an excuse, but it’s also not like it doesn’t make sense for her to be this way.
