A comment on two threads I've seen.

I cannot be the only person that is disgusted by the pedophilia and rape threads where there is an attempt to either excuse the act, or say that if society was diffrent, then it wouldn't be so bad. Give me a break! Having sex with a child is wrong and disgusting because the child cannot give proper consent, and most Pedos trick their victims with promise of candies or toys. You can remove all of society thoughts on sex, and raping someone will still be wrong! Why, because you're violating the person's personal space, and you are robbing that person of their dignity. For those who starts these threads have either A. never talked to someone who was affected by either horrible and disgusting acts. or B. Probably a pedo or raptist yourself. I've seen threads like this on here before, what is so hard about realizing that there's no excuse for either act?! I don't understand why people are actually trying to say that "well it's natural, it's how their wired." or "Well maybe if Society wasn't so uptight about Sex, it might actually be ok!" Sweet Mary mother of God people! Being fair and balance is one thing, but actually trying to justifed these sick perverts is just crossing the line! I don't know why people are trying to justified these acts, but I think you should think of the victim first and the person who did the act, dead last.

It's not digusting and foul (or whatever you said) because a child can't give "proper consent" .. it is disgusting and foul because they get off on little kids period. Those that do.. have some major fucking psychological problems. I know it's been around for ages.. and I know it can be hard to decipher, in the early teens, between an innocent child and a little whore. Still gotta draw the line somewhere.

Yea, but even sex with a teen that dresses like a whore is wrong, because she's not legal.

Oh, I totally agree on the legal part.. but you've got to admit there are teens that have sex with older men that consented or even provoked it.. but this isn't the issue. When I think of a pedophile I think of someone "preying" on a young person. A pedo imo, probably wouldn't even want a kid that was "willing" .. They probaly want that fresh and new disposition .. I just mentioned what I did cause there are people in prison or on community watch lists that were 18 and had sex with their 16 yr old slutty gf's. A long way from what I consider to be a pedo.

I personally feel that if a teenager lies about their age, they should be deemed to have consented to whatever comes as a result of them lying about their age. They knew when they said they were 18 as opposed to 14 what the older party was going to do. I'm not checking the ID of everyone I take to bed, and I'll be damned if I recognize the right of the state to arrest me when there's a clear lack of intent to break the law.

You are far from the only one, but from an objective point of view that is a bad thing.
What people in theory should be doing in those threads is debating whether or not the opposition against those acts is justified. The nice thing is that if it is, one should be able to show that. One provides decent arguments, applies solid reasoning and voila: rape and pedophlia are shown to be bad and we have in fact strengthened the case against it. Hurrah.

Being unwilling to debate it however suggests one is uncertain if one can actually make a case beyond "it is evil !".

You can remove all of society thoughts on sex, and raping someone will still be wrong!

Nitpick: if one created a society where having sex is considered the normal way of greeting, *refusing* someone sex can even be considered to be extremely impolite. Of course, we do not live in such a society.

Can be hard..especially for men.. we women have a more keen eye to those things.. just like we (women) are usually able to pick out a tranny quicker than the average man.

Ofcourse not saying that a lot of older men don't want the younger .. just saying that it IS possible that the men get confused.

Wilgrove, you sound like your sexual life is a real blast. All seductive and spontanous and such. :fluffle: 'Baby, show me your ID.' :fluffle: lol

Before you get all heated up! I do agree with you, that there is no excuse for rape. Whoever excuses it should get treatment - this way or the other, that'll cure such a view! The rapeists? I'd design a machine that rapes them and then send them to prison.

As for sex at young age: This is really a difficult one to draw legal lines. Basically, I am tempted to say that consent is important. I would think that a 16 year old with a decent education on sexuality can judge whether she/he wants sex. A 18 year old having consented sex with a 15 year old should not be a legal problem (as per example it isn't in Switzerland). I also know several girls who were with 30+ years older man at the age of 17...and knew absolutely what they were doing and don't regret it either (well, not more than any other broken up relationship).
However, what about street kids say in Rumania? They usually consent to having sex with elderly men. Basically, they know what they are doing - and do consent. However, obviously their social status leads to a 'forced consent'. How can you possibly define 'forced consent' by law?

These two scenarios can't be defined and seperated easily by law. I don't want 60 year old pervs preying on kids or going to foreign countries and lure them to sex with gifts. But I also think it's wrong to completely 'ban' sex below 18. Damn. What a hormonal overcharge that must be (glad I didn't have to wait that long).
I think the law itself should leave room to consented sex...but the punishment should be stricter on the 'real' paedophils. One joke of the current law is that you have the 19 year old guy who had sex with his 16 year gf on the same list as a 40 year old who lured a 10 year old thay boy to bed with money for his family.

I hope you do see the difference, Wilgrove.

I'm not sure that's a convertible proposition. "Wrong" is subjective, and many things that are considered "wrong" by many people are quite legal. I'm avoiding examples because the only one I can think of right now would only make this thread worse.

Gaydania: The problem of the 15 year olds having sex is with education and social environment - not with age. In Switzerland I'd say more than half the kids have sex before 17. We don't have a child pregnancy issue. When I knew, with 15, that I'm going to have sex with my gf (14), I a) knew about possible consequences and how to prevent them and b) could talk to my parents about it. No harm done (well, you know...). This only becomes an problem, if sex at that age is deemd as 'wrong'. It's nonsense. And your example is EXACTELY what is wrong with the law (in the US...and probably a few other nations): would you compare that 15 guy with a 50 year old who get off 10 year old girls? Hardly.

personaly an 18 year old and a 16 year old is not sick in my opinion at all. But again thats down to what is acceptable within society, its always been legal at that age here. If it were a 60 year old and 16 year old that is questionable. But if the person is of the age where they can be independant in the world, support themselves and there many other physical and emotional needs then how can it be wrong?

Quite right, quite right. In the U.K. the average age for- let's just say- "first contact with an alien life from" (Yes, I am actually prudish enough to try to avoid saying it.) is below sixteen! At first a was shocked, but then it occurred to me that I was also shocked by Mexico, Denmark, The Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Spain, Monaco, Italy, Greece, Switzerland, and France. Upon this realization, it didn't take me long to figure out that the rest of the world isn't loose. America is prudish! (Canada as well, by the way.) We usually think we are very open, because of our television shows, our fashion trends, and, of course, places like Las Vegas, but the simple fact is that we are about as boxed in as a society can get before it starts spawning counterculture. -But wait a second! We have counterculture! See my point?

Sweet Mary mother of God people! Being fair and balance is one thing, but actually trying to justifed these sick perverts is just crossing the line! I don't know why people are trying to justified these acts, but I think you should think of the victim first and the person who did the act, dead last.
paedophile =/= child molestor. The main point made in those threads is that it is not necessarily those people's faults that they have an attraction, and that it is wrong to punish people IF THEY HAVEN'T ACTUALLY COMMITTED A CRIME YET.

And that's the relevant point. I will continue to object if anyone suggests punishing people simply for having thoughts, no matter how deranged those thoughts might be.
