5. He's a weasel and a lawyer, that statement means nothing without each word being dissected in detail

For all we know, he means something very specific and even possibly obscure by the term "had sex" and hundreds or even thousands of specific discrete sex acts -- none of which a minor can legally consent to -- do not meet *his* definition of that term. And that is even granting him a concession he does not deserve: that his statement is even technically true from a very particular perspective. There is no reason for us not to believe he is just as likely to be brazenly lying his ass off.

Dersh has argued in bad faith on too many topics too many times for ANYTHING he says to be granted the benefit of the doubt of being accepted as true, even provisionally, and certainly not in the way he wants it to be accepted as true (i.e. broadly, expansively).
