Gloss and Te, avert your eyes!
Dear various people on the internet:
When I tell you that you are wrong about Slade's characterization, accept your defeat gracefully: you *will* lose if you argue him with me.
I don't actually insist that all of you worship me as the sole arbiter of Slade. I do insist that all of you refrain from using the "Slade likes his girls young" defense.
Because if you guys keep using that, I will BEAT YOU SEVERELY.
What do I have to do, people? No, this is a serious question. What will it take to get you all to quit using that argument? Do you want me to make a list of every sexual partner Slade's ever had so I can show you his sexual proclivities? Which, um, would be kind of a long list, because this is Slade, possibly a bigger manwhore than *Ollie*. How about everybody he's ever had explicit flirtation with?
I can do that, guys. I have the canon. I have the obsession.
Listen very closely: Tara Markov I is a statistically *insignificant* sample. As in, not his norm. As in really *really* not his norm.
The next person to say Slade is a pedophile -- or an ephebophile -- will be hit with the entire sixty-issue run of the Deathstroke comic and then forced to listen to a litany of every single canonical flirtation or sexual relationship the man has ever had.
Thank you.

P.S. Wrt Slade and rape, that has been said quite sufficiently here. Call him a rapist again and I'll hit you HARDER.
