How many times must I say this... Just because you are a paedophile does not mean you molest children. You can be a non-practicing paedophile. Paedophilia does not equate molestation.
By the way, the paedophiles I know, both online and offline, do not have sex with children. Why? Because they feel it would harm the child.
Hey Druidus, I see you're still up this late ( 1:40 here in California ).
I'm too drowsy to form a proper paragraph.
1. Sexuality: sexual orientation, sex acts
2. My point on your claim of non-acting paedophiles is that, if, they do not plan on acting out their thoughts, why do they want to make it a sexuality? SExuality is for the purpose of having sex, sexual orientation. In the past, you said you are a heterosexual, but that doesn't mean you are having sex right now or something to that effect. Well sexuality doesn't mean you have to be having sex every moment. It just means if you are a heterosexual, you are attracted to a certain sex, eventually leading up to the act of sex. Same for homosexuality. What makes paedophiles so special that paedophilia should be declared a sexuality for .... what? Their thoughts of sex with children and not the act of it? This is perhaps the most
b.s of a thing i've ever heard.
3. Druidus, yes, one
can be a non-practicing paedophile I suppose. However, it is undoubtable that they are having thoughts of sex with children in their heads, is it not. They must be because most everyone else love children, but not in the same way. The difference there being the thought of sex with them which paedophiles have. Have you heard of the story of a child molestor named Duncan? He too thought he could control his feelings, he even kept a blog "
The Fifth Nail" in which he kept his daily activities and thoughts down to "acquit" himself of any false accusations. What happened in the end? He wrote a crazy post, drove somewhere, killd a family (mother, father, 12 yr old son), and took the younger 2 children hostage. He later killed the 9 yr old boy and his acts with the 8 yr old girl is still being investigated. He is arrested and most likely faces the death sentence. How do you know that no "non-practicing paedophile" will ever act out on their fantasies? Making paedophilia a sexuality will start approving certain aspects of their lives giving them more freedom and acceptance, which when it comes to paedophila, is a bad thing. Most paedophiles commit multiple crimes, many, after being released. Criminals, especially paedophiles, to paraphrase something from Batman, relies on the acceptance and forgiveness of the society.
4. By the way, druidus, how certain are you that the non-practicing paedophiles you know, both offline and online, have never done anything (especially online)? The typical paedophile is very manipulative and intelligent. Manipulative and intelligent enough to get close to children, their families even, and even able to put themselves into job positions where they can easily have contact with children, not to mention commit multiple molestations before getting caught.
