"Pedophilia is natural, it's seen in [...]" isn't typically used to explain that it's okay or moral. They are two separate arguments. We usually make this argument to combat the active assumption that pedophilia isn't natural, which is still a common belief among antis and a basis for certain ...

Mark walked away with no criminal record or any form of monitoring. He was not placed on the sex offender register and there is nothing he has to disclose to an employer or a partner.

Shocking news: man not placed on sex offender registry after not having committed a sexual offense.

I'm not sure on the percentage, but I'm pretty sure a lot of the age gap discourse (and by extension, some anti-AMSC rhetoric) comes from people who are just genuinely upset that people they are attracted to are just attracted to younger people.

Sometimes you'll see the same thing parroted and there won't be a distinction, however the separation is noted often enough that it paints a ...

What is everyone's thoughts on the idea that there's a large portion of the population that actually accepts MAPs on a subconscious level, and some that there are likely a lot of people that subconsciously accept that minors can actually consent? I think many of us here agree that much of the ...
