Beg to differ.
How would you find out that someone is sexually attracted to children?

Beg to differ.
Oh gee I dunno. Maybe by the person telling you?
Bah. France did it after WW2.
Besides, why can't it happen? It's not an impossibility. There is no reason that democratic nations cannot be utterly harsh to criminals. Especially if they keep it a secret.
Kidnapped then limbs cut off. I have no idea if that picture was true or not, but it was seriously disturbing.
You understand that as long as pedos aren't committing crimes, they don't get found out? So in the absolute majority of cases, the subject of kill the pedos movements would actually deserve it.
Hey Numbers I'm a pedo.
I'm just saying that what you said is kind of silly. You're saying it's okay that pedos are seen as evil because the only time we know someone is a pedo is if they commit a crime.
Gosh, in that case, I wonder why pedos are so hesitant to reveal this bit of information about themselves? This is exactly like a homosexual's reluctance to reveal his orientation to a society that hates gays.
for pedophiles? or for those accused of treason?
keeping it secret is what totalitarian regimes do. no surprise you'd be all for it
she became a prostitute after getting her limbs cut off? the criminals could have gotten a lot more money off of her had they left her limbs intact
you assume all pedos get caught. you also assume that killling them (in secret no less; see above) would be a detrent to future pedos. I mean criminals are deterred from commiting crimes because of the threat of jailtime so it's no stretch of the imagination to believe capital punishment will deter pedos. it works for murderers and cop killers
Numbers said:I was basing my "theory" on the fact that, yes, it is actually kinda like homosexuality - pedophiles are found out only when they commit a crime, because they don't tell people that they are pedophiles lest they get persecuted.
I suppose persecuting pedos is kinda like persecuting gays simply because of their sexuality and therefore wrong. It's hard to wrap my mind around this though. Maybe it's an automatic reaction or something, but I associate pedo with IMPRISON THE SICK ****S! It's actually weird when you think about it.
Yay let's draw unrelated comparisons between the two that have nothing to do with the point of the analogy!pedophilia is absolutely nothing like homosexuality. pedophiles get off on victemizing an innocent. homosexuality is consensual between adults
There have been a handful of threads here in the past that contained an overwhelming air of acceptance of pedophilia, and strong disapproval against those who express such ignorant hatred toward it. Those threads really made me feel proud to be a part of this community.
Child rapists are about control. the engage in a "grooming" period before committing the crime

Fixed that for you.
but ..child rapists are technically pedophiles. you dont have to engage in an act to be a pedophile
No ****ing shit. A lion is an animal but not all animals are not lions. A child rapist is a pedophile, but not all pedos are child rapists.
You are suggesting prosecution of people who have committed no crime simply because they have a taboo sexual attraction (which they've not indulged in). You're suggesting punishment of thought crimes.
no not everyone is capable of rape
have kids and then you'll understand
Yes they are. But people don't because they're not rapists and don't want to be rapists and are good people.
kyrnn said:I already understand.
You have kids and your fear for them clouds your judgement. I understand that as well, but it doesn't change the fact that prosecuting people for thought crimes is a heinous notion.
Hey Numbers I'm a pedo.
so they're incapable
Yes, I do. Since we're throwing around assumptions, then I'll assume you understood too, until your fear overcame your judgement.no you dont. I didnt either till I had kids
That is irrational. Not wanting to have your kids around them is a reasonable reaction, but wanting to violate basic human rights because you fear them is not rational.pedophiles are a more heinous notion and frankly I couldnt give two shits whether their rights are beign infringed upon. and no it's not irrational at all.
the litmus test is for someone like vegeta to tell him mom, friends, girfriend that he's attracted to little kids. he doesnt even have to admit to anything besides attraction and he'll be either shunned or told to seek help
If you think not wanting to do something means you're incapable, then its just a semantics argument. Either way, someone who is a pedophile doesn't by definition want to be a rapist (and by your phrasing, is not by definition, necessarily capable of being one).
kyrnn said:Yes, I do.

The litmus test for what?
kyrnn said:The morality of one's attraction? The way people react has no bearing on the morality or immorality of anything. Until recently gays couldn't admit to their attraction without being either shunned or told to seek help either. History is littered with ignorant people reacting poorly to something that is not immoral, but that has never justified a violation of human rights when no act or crime has been committed.
I understand the distinction. dfor example I dont have a desire to rape someone and I know I'm incapable of it. remember that seinfeld scene where George was caught with his pants down and jerry's girlfriend laughed at the size of dick "I WAS IN THE POOL" ..ya same thing but without the pool
Yes, I do.no you dont
I won't deny the possibility that you didn't understand before, like I said I was just playing the assumption game with you. Having children doesn't change the laws of morality, it only gives you another phobia to worry about. A pedophile is not necessarily going to rape your kids, just like a heterosexual man is not necessarily going to rape your sister. What you're talking about is paranoia, not understanding.and no I didnt understand. and it wasnt fear that made me understand it was experience
As I said, not allowing your kids to hang out with someone IS a rational notion, be he a pedophile or a douchebag or a republican or whatever. You don't want your kids to hang around someone who could be detrimental to them. I'm talking about persecution of someone just because they could be detrimental. Keeping your kids away from someone is not persecution and it is not violating a person's human rights.how am I being irrational? would you allow your kids to hang out with vegeta just because he hasnt offended yet? you're really going to take that chance? I'd rather not
Who the **** is suggesting that it is socially acceptable?for how acceptable simply beign attracted to children is.
ok you're being silly and comparing apples to oranges. homosexuality is consensual, child rape/abuse is not
no not everyone is capable of rape or else rapey rape would have it's own speciality channel and how to courses
have kids and then you'll understand
Why would I want to tell my family? It's not like being a pedophile is a huge life choice like homosexuality. It's not like I'm going to marry a child. For me, and most people who aren't rapists or people sick in the head, pedophilia is a fetish like any other. They can indulge it in safe and harmless ways. Would you tell your family that you have a rape fetish? Scat fetish? Necrophilia? No. Does that mean you 'failed' this test and you should be shunned from society because you have these dark secrets you don't want to share? And for the record, my girlfriend does know, and she accepts me because she's not a ****ing idiot.the litmus test is for someone like vegeta to tell him mom, friends, girfriend that he's attracted to little kids. he doesnt even have to admit to anything besides attraction and he'll be either shunned or told to seek help
The stuff I say to you that grosses you out is on purpose, because it's fun.You're undoubtedly different than most. You're currently in an environment that you feel you can tell people. You tell me and I do nothing other than ****ing berate you and tell you to stop talking to me about ****ing disgusting pedophile things. The people on these forums do nothing other than laugh and make jokes really.
Just like they would react to any other weird sexual fetish. I have no reason to tell them and they don't want to know. What is the problem, and what does this prove?But the case for most people, and the case for yourself, is that you will not be telling the rest of the people in your life. You won't be telling your family, you won't be telling your employers, you won't be telling any casual person or most regular friends you have because those people are going to react very, very poorly.
the litmus test is for an otaku nerd is to tell him mom, friends, girfriend that he's attracted to anime girls. he doesnt even have to admit to anything besides attraction and he'll be either shunned or told to seek help
the litmus test is for a bdsm fetishist is to tell him mom, friends, girfriend that he's attracted to dominatrices. he doesnt even have to admit to anything besides attraction and he'll be either shunned or told to seek help
the litmus test is for pole humpers is to tell him mom, friends, girfriend that he's attracted to lamp-posts. he doesnt even have to admit to anything besides attraction and he'll be either shunned or told to seek help
the litmus test is for a gay man is to tell him mom, friends, girfriend that he's attracted to men. he doesnt even have to admit to anything besides attraction and he'll be either shunned or told to seek help
I got bad news for all of us.

I'd certainly be much happier and not concerned at all if my boyfriend watched porn that didn't depict women.
