I don't think it's because I'm secretly ashamed or not proud but just worried at everyone's reaction. I don't have any in person friends or family who seem like theyd be remotely accepting of maps.

Ive never felt "ashamed" of being a map though on a personal level. I know Im not a predator or anything. I discovered I was a "map" when I was quite young, a very young minor myself.

Feeling proud of being a map definitely came later though as i spoke to other maps online. We're a diverse bunch and all quite normal. A lot of maps and aams I've met are kind people with similar tastes in hobbies as myself. I'm proud of us and I'm proud of being a map. I like kids, and that's just one part of my personality and not one that I feel should be demeaned or anything

I am saying this partly for my own benefit as much as anything, but there is absolutely nothing wrong or illegal in being a MAP. It is only social stigma that vilifies us. I yearn to be open without fear.

When I am calm and relaxed and feeling safe, no I don't believe we are wrong for being attracted to kids. But sometimes when you see and read of the violence and hatred directed at us, it is difficult not to question and see see yourself in a bad light. Which is why these groups are so good.

This nicely sums up my thoughts . Thank you.

By the way Stefanos, I completely agree that nature made us this way - I did not learn to be a MAP, it is a natural instinct. Whether nature wants us this way is a slightly different matter and as a nepiophile I would find it a bit harder to justify a 'natural' case. Don't get me wrong, I am quite happy and proud as a nepi and wearingthat label, and I extend into the pedo range as well, but lots including other MAPs do not see nepiophiles as a natural tendancy.

Thank you and I appreciate it's difficult. I errr more towards toddlers than infants but not exclusively. Yes I sit in the pro-c camp but again not exclusively. More than happy to discuss Nepi attraction if anyone wants to explore the subject, but I do understand it sits less 'naturally' than other MAP attractions.

I can say for sure that I am proud to be a paedophile. It's who and what I am.

I used to feel like a bad person for the thoughts and sexual attractions/advances I had but now I feel ok and stable about it.
