Re: A foundational truth that can't be challenged

Some authors had already scrutinized CSA as an ideology, putting in check the trauma model, exposing the history and construction of CSA in late 70's and early 80's and some authors in applied ethics have even make questions about what qualify AMSC as different from any other activity to hold such ...

Re: Might kill myself soon

There's no strong word that will be enough in a moment like this, but please, reconsider.

Re: A Review of Academic Use of the Term “Minor Attracted Persons”


Salter's paper has been approvingly cited many hundreds of times on X, suggesting that its net effect has been to delegitimize claims initiatives such as B4U-ACT and Mu are hoaxes.

I'm frustrated that apparently no MAP-Researcher or B4U ...

35.71% of “Normalization of Pedophilia;”
What you think they mean by "normalization of pedophilia"? I mean, this is a pretty obtuse term that will just generate confusion and distress if discussed.

Re: Sexual orientation or Mental illness?

Michael Seto have 2 papers examining Minor Attraction as a sexual orientation. Don't forget paraphilia is pretty controversial construct (research on yesmap about Dr.Charles Moser) that resemble sexology of late nineteenth century. The only variable all paraphilias share in common is being ...

Reddit - Pedophiles aren't queer. They're simply pedophiles.

Some of them have nice insights, others are pretty regressive and denialists about similarities.
It's nice to see, however, since you can understand different perspective about the topic.

The capital C Child, what is exactly queer, etc. On the examples about cultures where in certain way same sex sexual contact was tolerated, he uses old Greece, but at end he says that this on ...
