Is pedophilia going mainstream?

We need to have Dimensio come by to assure us that there is no such thing as the "slippery slope!"

That'll surely calm my fears! How's by you?

"...For elsewhere in the public square, the defense of adult-child sex—more accurately, man-boy sex—is now out in the open

My take on what I have been reading is it is our sons they are trying to throw to the rapists (let's call it what it is!). N.O.W. is probably all for this since it involves the dehumanization and rape of MALE children.

I was in a live chat awhile back that was full of Europeans and went ballistic on some wretched old male gasbag who was practically salivating over the thought of what I LOUDLY termed "baby rape" and called him a rapist - I actually got bounced from the room for being "vulgar".

15-20 years ago, when I heard someone say "stock up on and hide your guns and ammo for what's coming" I'd think they were paranoid nuts. Now I believe they were right all along.

. . .unite against the [L]eftist filth in this country!

This is my entire political philosophy in a nutshell.

[rdb3]

Mine, too!

I would submit that any nation that would allow an organization like NAMBLA to exist, is a nation in serious decline. I not only believe that efforts to desensitize people to pedophilia are taking place, but that beastiality will be ushered in right behind. I've even seen this taboo used as a punchline in a move, "The Animal".

You are right. I have been chastised for calling "having sex with children" what it is: RAPE. First they desensitize people by altering/softening the wording. After that it is easier to make it acceptable. It is incremental. I would recommend everyone be very adamant on calling it "rape". The fact that we are even talking about the subject shows how far it has permeated into the mainstream.

Remember it was in the late 1970s that Anita Bryant led the effort against "civil rights" status for homosexuals in Miami.

Honestly? No, I don't. But you'll understand why as I didn't turn 10 until December of '81. ;-)

Of course, ephebophilia used to go by a different name here in The Colonies back about 200 years or so ago. Back then, it was called "taking a wife." Low life expectancy rates almost mandated early marriage.

But things have changed -- life expectancy is higher, marriage age is higher, and in the Colonial era, the intentions of such men were honorable.

Can anyone cite an example of the RENE GUYON SOCIETY ever participating in an Easter parade? A Memorial Day parade? A Straight-Pride celebration?

The only question as to what would happen to them if they did would be how many pieces would their respective members be torn into.

NAMBLA, however, did march in "Gay Pride" parades until it was realized that this generated bad press. Now they participate without their banner.

[PISANO]

The entire press corp and news media is reporting this outbreak in the Catholic Church as a "SEX SCANDAL". Somehow giving it the same polishing as BJ Clinton's sexcapades in the Oval Office. This might not sound like a big deal but change is slow and the hearts and minds must come along for the ride. How better than through the constant bombardment of the TAGS that the liberal media put on events. You have "suicide bomber" legitimizing the taking of innocents non combatants now you have "sex scandal" to describe pedophilia. Sick!

I would submit that any nation that would allow an organization like NAMBLA to exist, is a nation in serious decline.

The free speech envisioned by the first ammendment was primarily political, whereas today the entire argument has flipped. You can suppress political speech all you want, but not advocates of pedophilia.

Really though, we are a culture in decline. Some things the law can't really deal with. In times past, making such outrageously evil statements earned you an appointment with an angry mob and a rope. The authorities often looked the other way because the values being enforced where quite general. (Of course, this phenomenon is not generally a force for good.)

Today such evil is not just tolerated, but promoted. The animals making these demonic suggestions are not just safe from harm, they have government jobs paid for by taxpayers. We are subsidizing their sickness in every way.

What needs to be done may not be suggested. We have civilized ourselves to the point of defenselessness.

[DoughtyOne]

Sadly, your comments are rather accurate.

[oceanperch]

Come on we all knew this was coming no that homosexual hoopla is socially exceptable with mainstream society.

"NAMBLA, however, did march in "Gay Pride" parades until it was realized that this generated bad press.

As documented in The Overhauling of Straight America

"A media campaign to promote the Gay Victim image should make use of symbols which reduce the mainstream’s sense of threat, which lower its guard, and which enhance the plausibility of victimization. In practical terms, this means that jaunty mustachioed musclemen would keep a very low profile in gay commercials and other public presentation, while sympathetic figures of nice young people, old people, and attractive women would be featured. (It almost goes without saying that groups on the farthest margin of acceptability, such as NAMBLA, must play no part at all in such a campaign; suspected child-molesters will never look like victims).

You'll notice that Kirk & Pill didn't say that NAMBLA was unacceptable.

Is pedophilia going mainstream? I have a real hard time believing that society will ever tolerate sex between adults and children who haven't reached sexual maturity, let alone accepted it as normal or celebrate it. Even a scourge-of-FR, Liberaltarian weeder like me would never stand for something like that, and I'm sure I'm not alone within my ranks.

But what we have her on this thread is a bunch of different things being lumped together and mis-understood.

Pedophilia < > ephebophilia < > bestiality < > incest < > pederasty < > homosexuality.

Lumping them together and branding them equally evil does nothing for us.

[EdReform]

BUMP!

Sorry, but I believe that you are quite wrong here. Going back to the days of Stonewall, you'll see that the most vocal proponents of the homosexual agenda also target the reducing or elimination of age of consent laws. You may not like facing the truth but Homosexuality leads to ephebophilia, pedophilia, and pederasty. Incest and bestiality are not a direct link but, being Biblically based morals, how long will it be before law against such are scoffed at as religious mores that infringe on individual liberties?

Actually, PETA will probably prevent bestiality from going very far. Guess we'll just have to wait to see if any academics start publishing books about how animals can give consent!
