MAP Forum

I've long stood by the thought that anti-MAP / anti-AMSC sentiments don't just come from a bigoted hatred towards MAPs, but also a desire to control a subject group.

The entire concept ...

I share a similar sentiment with that Michael Bailey quote. I entered my field years ago for unrelated reasons, but it's difficult to look at research done on the subjects of child sexuality and AMSC and not notice that the more common views on both subjects aren't incredibly supported.
