This film was released in 2014, but the producers had a hard time getting sponsorship for it. So now it's on Youtube.

I don’t think there is a single reason anyone does anything, let alone behavior like this. For some it may be a power trip. For others it may be a fetish. The fact that so many abusers were abused themselves isn’t a minor detail. Sexual abuse might be one of the most damaging experiences a person can have. It’s an awful subject to discuss and worse to study.
Did you notice how you used gendered terms throughout what you wrote? One of the real blindspots we have in our culture when dealing with this subject is how we treat pedophilia as if its gender specific. As someone who was abused as a child by a female, I can assure you it isn’t. Female pedophiles get overlooked and often their behavior gets dismissed. It happened with the girl who abused me.
Remember Anders Brevik, the Norway shooter? His mother allegedly abused him for years. His father fought repeatedly to get custody of him and lost.

It’s hard to see the truth when you put something up on a pedestal. Whether it be a female abuser, a church leader, Hollywood, or politicians, nobody wants to believe people are capable of doing something so horrible.
I’m not defending the Roman Catholic Church but Hollywood loves to deflect Pedophilia anger away from themselves.
That is the key. A healthy person enjoys the spark of a child, but the first thing they say is where is your mother or father. He respects the natural order of control, and will always contact the parent first, and if not available a cop.
And for a Hollywood casting agent to ignore a parent present is SICKO.
True, but they were opening a Pandora’s box on themselves by way of criticizing another organization for crimes of which their own industry is very guilty.
You're protecting your children in a way that you wish you had been protected. Your pain is very real.
Sadly, there are still many ‘non-believers’ here on FR that yell up and down the block that MJ wasn’t a PED. :/
I agree, but there are exceptions... My mother was FAR from loving and never safe to be with ;p
As full as they are with homosexuals, I wouldn’t be surprised to find they’re just as full with pedophiles.
Born pedophile? How could you post something this ignorant?
Bkmk
If you remember the character of the Film Producer in the Godfather who wakes up with the horse’s head, in The Godfather Novel he is portrayed as a pedophile, who preyed on the daughters of his actresses. So this problem is as old as Hollywood.
Sending your kid to Hollywood is tantamount to child abuse.
you realize The Godfather was fiction?
If God doesn’t destroy Hollywood, he owes Sodom and Gomorrah an apology.
Of course.....but it was also based on a real character, I’m sure it wasn’t exactly a secret about what went on in Hollywood back then.
you just make leaps of logic over and over. Go ahead i;m sorry for pointing it out. Good night.
