Hi I don’t know about many of you, but I find Romeo and Juliet laws (close in age exception) to be dehumanising, discriminatory and have negative impacts on MAP’s, youth Lib and AAM’s for these reasons.

1. It implies that sexual/romantic relationships between teenagers and adults/people much older ...

Hi,
I wanted to know if there are any forums/Map groups that are inclusive to Pro-Contact MAPs.

If you don't have a parent that knows you're a MAP and is supportive, you can borrow mine.

B4U-ACT would not use the language "Destigmatize MAPs".

The title of your petition mirrored the language used to criticise MAP initiatives and draw the lines against violating community standards, literally the "glorification of pedophilia" as an "identity".

Kids/teenagers can groom, exploitation and take advantage of other minors and/or adults. Sometimes the older partner may be more innocent and niave and the younger person (minor ...
