Oh. I did not know there were distinctions, and different terms. I think when I made that statement, I was more talking about those stories about teens getting taken advantaged of by adults, especially teachers, and the severe power imbalance there. I do credit "Gift" for showing that a woman (albeit a nonhuman woman) taking advantage of teenage boys is as creepy as a man taking advantage of teenage girls, and not the teenage boys "scoring." (Even with the fairy tale magic, the Mab story kind of seems like a metaphor for those kind of situations).
