It is
always abuse/molestation/exploitation when an adult has sexual relations with a minor.
The minor is often under the authority and/or control of the adult who is raping them and is not of age to consent to or make an informed choice to agree to the sexual interaction.
As far as enjoying it and seeking it out goes ... Molesters are masters of manipulating the minds of the victims they predate upon ... Whether the victim finds it pleasurable and/or seeks it out or not!
Again, if you are a minor being sexually abused by a pedophile in real life or online, or know of a minor who is, I urge you to immediately inform the authorities or another trusted adult IN REAL LIFE!
If you are an adult survivor, it's okay to look for answers here, but if you are a minor, I cannot impress the importance of getting help in real life!
Sincerely,
Pfrog!
