A significant number of my female high school friends were seduced by college student aged men at that age and it really fucked them up psychologically. Some of them for years.

I remember taking one of my friends to get a pregnancy test because she was getting screwed by a fucking substitute teacher who was also a grad student (it was a college town) and he never got found out.

Yup. It seems like most women I know well lost their virginity to older men. It wasn't always predatory but it happened often enough to really give pause.

I think you can argue that it's always predatory even if the girl didn't realize it at the time.
