You're sick.

Aside from the fact that you're sick, the brain of a human is not even completely grown until around age 18. The law is actually pushing it by allowing age of consent to be 16. And if there weren't so many pervs wanting to do it, then we wouldn't have this problem at all. And an older man should not be allowed to be with a girl under 16, because it's much easier for an older man to seduce a young girl who just craves attention, and feels vulnerable to him. The same thing for older women and younger men.

And do you know why most of these people end up being 30-something and wanting to touch little kids? because they were involved with sexual activity at such a young age, and were raped or molested themselves. The fact is, once you wait until you're older to do it, it doesn't become such a norm that you have to go out fucking with little kids. So if anything, they should be stricter on these freakshows.

I don't think gay people like to be compared to pedophiles either...

I know. It seriously pisses me off... i'm 20 and my boyfriend is 19.. we are two consenting adults.

Jesus christ.

Girls don't fully develop thier... "bits" untill they're 18 anyway. so raise the age of consent to 18.

The whole age of consent thing is screwed up anyway. I mean, at 16 i can have sex with someone and bring a child into the world but i can't drink in a bar or pub? Bullshit!

I know...I'm sure 100% of the guys who are going to impregnate kids are going to marry them and be around when they give birth to their children. This is surely the most responsible option, especially when we know 11 year olds are perfectly capable of supporting themselves and entering legal agreements. :rolleyes:

I agree entirelly as well, but the people who fully support this movement do not listen to personal experience. They only believe scientific studies.

Either way they are wrong.

Mesatecala, you speak as if there was something inherent in sexuality that is guilt-inducing, traumatising and destructive. Human biology? Development? Pretending a two year old is mentally equal to a ten year old is just silly, and pretending sexuality is nonexistent until puberty is equally laughable. Ignoring the obvious doesn't work anymore.

You have virtually no concept of the facts. And you don't even know what you are talking about. Human biology and development has all to do with this.

Uh, what? There is overwhelming research that makes it absolutely obvious that child sexuality exists; it's practically one of the fundamental pillars of developmental psychology.

I don't want to have sex with little boys. I'm not sure when this has been implied, but it isn't accurate; and, in any case, it is irrelevant. Child sexuality is, in modern society, the object of an immense amount of anxiety and paranoia; it is as unhealthy for the average joe to cringe at the very mention of pedophilia as it is for the child to have their sexual urges repressed and linked to guilt. We've dealt away with the stigma of pleasure and orgasm which religion gave us centuries ago; we've dealt away with the stigma on masturbation and lust that the victorian ideals of innocense left us with; we've dealt away with, to a good degree, the stigma on interracial and homosexual relations. And now we're hung up on child sexuality; pedophiles are caracterized as "monsters", "predators" and sub-human "animals" that deserve no rights.

Or are people not rather quick to forfeit fundamental human rights when it comes to pedophiles? Look at the state of the laws in the United States and the UK. Lifelong tracking and registries, effectually giving perpetual sentences; the ever-present threat of a mob coming to your house to lynch you, stone you, tear your house apart and kill you; publication of hundreds of names and facial pictures of alleged pedophiles in newspapers for the purpose of selling more copies, destroying the lives of people; aversion therapy, for god's sake! How can this be admissible in a civilized society?

Dude you are a full of it. I hate being compared to pedophiles. I am a gay male. I have a relationship with another an adult who can consent. A child cannot consent because he/she is not fully physically and emotionally developed. That's supported by solid scientific fact. Your child sexuality nonsnse is just so you can excuse rape.

And pedophiles should be tracked and put under strict rules if they are ever released. I however think they should be sentenced to life.

Selectively picked a post to prove point.

Education, should only be given so that they can survive? I think it is more than that.
And education is rarely, if ever "objective."
And as I and many philosophers before me have stated, granting the "freedom of choice" to someone can be an horrific situation. This may be part of our nature, but certainly does not need to be pointed out to those who could not handle it.
Hmm it's a shame that this thread has degraded into name calling and personal attacks......

Saying I'm a bad father (fuck you), saying everyone is a sicko or prevert, doesn't do anything to express yourself (other than your ignorance), so please cut it out.

Rules do need to be clear, with motivations and reasoning, not "because I told you so". Education is meant to equip poeple with the tools to survive and thrive, to tell right from wrong, what else could it be for? If you think your children can't handle it then keep hiding behind your vague notions of morality.

Why shouldn't you hurt other people? If you can't give your kid a clear and understandable answer for that answer then reallly tie your tubes.....


More disclaimers:
1)don't diss science simpliy because it doesn't agree with you, science isn't perfect (drug company experiments come to mind), it is based on objective skepitism and experiments.
Experiments use 2 or more groups, one not exposed to the independent varible (the control) and one that is. If a difference is detected it is attributed to the influence of the independent varible.

2) I never meant to group homosexuals or "oral sexers" in the same catagory, only to draw comparisions between the two pheomons. In the 80's when AIDS first come to light gays were considered deviant freaks that corrupted innocent straight men. We now know that it is not the case, but back then many would insist a real man would never consent to such behaviors. Much like what we see now.
All times and eras need a moral scapegoat. That was my point.

3) For everyone that was hurt in the past I am truly sorry for what happened to you, but what happened to you was bad because it did not involve your consent. Whoever did that to you should be punished in the harshest ways, but please don't misunderstand the intend of this author. RAPE is rape no matter what age.

Your problem is you are qualifying pedophilia under "child sexuality." That's like calling a US invasion of Iraq as "Iraqi politics."

And now we're hung up on child sexuality; pedophiles are caracterized as "monsters", "predators" and sub-human "animals" that deserve no rights.

Pedophilia =/= child sexuality. It is the sexuality of older males (predominately) forced on children.

How can this be admissible in a civilized society?

Rape is defined as a violation of a person's body, against their wishes, without their consent. Nonconsentual sexual activity is a Really Bad Thing(c). It has nothing to do with child sexual activity. The issue is consent, not age. Laws on age of consent are based on archaic principles that treat children as automatons, not persons capable of decision and self-determination; they are ridiculous. Any child sexual abuse can be dealt with using rape laws; yes: laws to deal with non-consentual sex.

No there isn't. In fact the overwhelming amount of research backs my opinion up. That children are not fully developed before puberty. You can't even be bothered in citing anything.

Have you ever read anything by, I don't know... Freud? Eric Berne? Ernest Becker? Have you ever heard of Alfred Kinsey's studies on sexology? Or, for that matter, anything about sexology? Anything about modern psychology? How does the fact that children are not fully developed even begin to relate to whether there is child sexuality?

Denying child sexuality is akin to promoting geocentrism; perhaps worse.

What does it mean to "survive and thrive" in todays society? For a child it is having the most friends, being liked by everyone, or as Disney would say "fitting in."

If a child can't handle it then why should you force them to be free, to come up with their own morality?

Do you have a concrete explanation for why we shouldn't hurt people? What does that mean. You're saying you've figured it all out?

Science, as I've said before is merely a philisophical tool. It has no moral basis besides "the truth" and cannot explain why it strives for this. The scientist needs to turn the disecting scapal on himself before he declares he has found "objective truth."

And I majored in chemistry, and I am well read in philosophy. I know what I'm talking about.

Children cannot in the same way as one can normally expect of adults judge the possible consequences of sexual intercourse, like sexually transmitted diseases, pregnancy, etc. Partially because they in general are less informed about these subjects, but also because children are much more easily influenced by their seniors. They trust them more easily as sources of authority ("he's a grown-up, so he must know better than me,") and are much more easily intimidated as they are physically smaller than adults and are more suspectible to bluff threats.

For girls, getting pregnant at an early age presents a dire health risk if the pregnancy is carried through, as their hips are not yet developed to deal with childbirth. The result is a much greater chance of permanent crippling or death. This is the case in countries where girls are married away aged twelve or thirteen. An abortion is traumatic enough to most adult women, and would be more so to a child.

Simply put, children do not have the mental or physical supposition to act as responsible as one can expect of adults. This is why they cannot be punished for criminal offences the same way as adults are, are not able to own credit cards, cars, etc, and cannot consent to sexual intercourse with an adult on an equal standing.

Yes, and children are not legally, and in mine (and it seems many others here) opinion not any other way either, capable of giving consent to having sex. Therefore pedophilia is a form of rape. What you would call "consent" I would call child abuse and rape.

What does it mean to "survive and thrive" in todays society? For a child it is having the most friends, being liked by everyone, or as Disney would say "fitting in."

If a child can't handle it then why should you force them to be free, to come up with their own morality?

Do you have a concrete explanation for why we shouldn't hurt people? What does that mean. You're saying you've figured it all out?

Science, as I've said before is merely a philisophical tool. It has no moral basis besides "the truth" and cannot explain why it strives for this. The scientist needs to turn the disecting scapal on himself before he declares he has found "objective truth."

And I majored in chemistry, and I am well read in philosophy. I know what I'm talking about.

If we need a scapegoat, why are you so fed up right now?
Most would define being successful in life as being happy with what they have done in life. I'm not as versitile as you, I'm only in med school atm, but I think everyone has their own idea of what it means to be successful.

Maybe I am old fashioned and/or down-to-earth but I think you could explain why not to hurt others without over-philosiphying or getting into wordplay and syntax. Or are you like this all the time? But for your information I have figured it all out, I would explain it to you as if you were a child but I don't really see the point since you will only over-dramatisize it, and try to steer the debate into another direction.

I never said that there absolutly needs to be a scapegoat, I said there always is one. I don't like having scapegoats, they are a byproduct of trying solve complex issues in a simple way (anyone remember the Jews pre-WW2?).

Just because you have a BA in philoshophy doesn't mean much to be honest, just because I am training to be a doctor (in psychiatry no less) I don't proclaim to know everything about behavior. Such a childish display of educational "status" is very un-becoming. If anything you are putting it to poor use. If science is a tool it should be as valid as your circular logic.

On the other hand, by you agreeing that a scapegoat is needed in every society you agree that while pediphiles may be wrongfully accused that it is a nessicary evil? You're talking yourself into circles.

Actually in your view, only things that agree with you are the truth, even though those things have been refuted a hundred times over. In essence, stop defending child rape.

Actually you guys are just arguing over science. Science has limited evidence and has not seen all there is to offer. So you're both arguing over nothing. How about learning from personal experience? Here's some personal experience... It's sick, it's wrong, it's perverted, and it hurts people... and to allow people who are mentally ill and want to touch little kids to keep doing it... you are only putting fuel on the fire. You're only making their mental illness worse. And when you allow them to do it to children, you're making the children mentally ill.. and most of those kids grow up and do it to other kids. It doesn't matter what science says... look how often science is wrong. Psychology and science are just collective theories based on limited unseen evidence... science and psychology gets people killed and destroys their lives every damned day.

I repeat, 13 at lowest. I'm 16, I know 13 year old girls I'd bang, and I feel rather bad about that. But I degress, any lower than that is just... no. Now, if you're 13, you have a 12 year old partner, and you're both idiots, whatever, go ahead, it's not my problem.

We're not discussing creationism, now are we? Yes, some things are more defined than others. You and I have both always accepted 1+1=2 to be completely factual... I still find it very hard to discredit... but alot of more credible, intelligent scientists happen to think that axiom is bullshit. Get it? I'm not saying that science is definitely wrong, I'm just saying it can't be defined as complete truth, although it is very dependable. Also, evolution is hardly clearly defined. It is in the sense of microevolution, but not in macroevolution. We have no proof of the latter, really. It's just an educated guess based on very debatable evidence.

I personally do believe in creationism... but that's not fact based, it's faith based. I don't need facts to believe in that. Because it simply stands, that if there is a God, I think he can do whatever he wants, despite the evidence. But I refuse to debate on creationism because I hold it sacred.

No, my personal belief is if they both understand what sex is, both are sexually mature (postpuberty) and they love each other, its ok. But its hard to determine understanding, so those in the age bracket of 12-16 are allowed to fuck those in their age bracket, those in the age bracket of 17+ are allowed to fuck anyone else in their age bracket.

But Paedophilia means love for children WHO HAVE NOT BEGUN PUBERTY, so they don't understand. So no, screw you you paedophile.

Yeah...and with the evidence of the "dumbing down of America" and all of that...it seems like in the US the age should be raised, not lowered, if anything at all.

We stay kids longer now. The last I heard on the news was that sociologists determined you're now not an adult in all realistic senses of the word until you're 27. It's not like back in the day when 12 year olds were expected to raise a family, have a job, etc themselves. Now kids are still living with their parents at 24.

I think back to all the dumb things my friends did when we were 18...it's not like that's some magic number that automatically brings you into adulthood. In many cases, bodies aren't even completely developed at that point. So...11? They may have kids dressing more inappropriately these days, but that doesn't mean they're ready to start thinking about having sex with adults with actual life experience.
Rumali
19-09-2005, 00:50
because there are cases of children as young as 8 who have fully developed does not mean that child is ready for sex with an adult. or even understands what it going on. full sexual development does not for the majority of children happen till after 12 and for some children is not completed until 15 or 16. and that folks is in the text books and established as fact. just because a child's body is able to deal with sexual intercourse does not mean they are mentally ready for it. physical development is not the benchmark. there is a natural progression to a childs sexual life and any adult sexual intercourse at a young age is an interruption in that natural progression. infants are capable of reflexive sexual responses from birth. male infants are capable of erections, and female infants are capable of vaginal lubrication. should we allow adults to have sex with them? i don't think so. an 11 year old you can achive and erection or vaginal lubricate and may be beginning to explore the sexual world. that does not mean the child is ready for intercourse or to have an adult be that adult 16 or 42 have a physical relationship with them. anyone who assumes that it is, is just looking for self sexual gratification for themselves. the childs well being isn't even taken into consideration. yes does not mean consent.
any adult willing to risk a childs development is a monster and any time an adult talks a child into saying yes, is abuse.

The factors sociologists site for raising the perceived level of adulthood include drastic changes in our educational system and in technology/media exposure. There are many studies demonstrating the lowering of maturity and decision-making skills.

This of course is not true for every individual, as is the case with most sociological findings.

well i kinda think that mabye the age of consent should be when the kids/teenagers are physically ready for sex so it doesn't harm them say 12-13 or whenever. BUT: they should have an age limit to who people can have sex with, like if someone is 13, they could only have sex with someone who is 17 years or younger.But a 17 year old could have a relationship with someone 21 years old and we should have 18 be the age where you can start having sex with someone of any age, who is older than 18 also. it might be confusing but it lets kids who are able to experiment as they want, but it wont let older people take advantage of them. im not saying an older person always would take advantage of a younger person, but just in case (not everyone is going to be happy with every law...sorry)
But with that said sex without consent is rape and should be illegal in ANY case. and sex of someone who is say 24 and someone who is 14 should be illegal at least until that 14 year old turns 18.
And another thing, i dont know if anyone knows this but the united states has more laws regarding the different kinds of sex you can participate in than ALL of the european countries combined. so enough of this "anal sex is illegal" and "oral sex is a illegal" yea says fuckin who? the curch???? what? :headbang: i thought there was a seperation of church and state in this country. even though the person in power seems to be able to speak with god. yea he needs to go. but still i dont know if i made ANY sense at all but thats just what i think...
