<quote>Pedophiles are born pedophiles, and if they don't harm others I don't have anything against them. </quote>
WTF kmfkewm, every time it comes to this CP thing. You jump on the wagon and give this provocative arguments. I am not so firm as you in these studies you mentioned, nor am I informed in the whole CP scene. But this statement is just false.
How can someone be a born Pedophile? If you are born as an innocent child you are just a child and we humans need some time to develop to grown humans. We are helpless and have an extended childhood. Unlike an animal that have to have skills to survive.
And I dont think someone that fixed on CP is a normal human. No way, man, no fucking way. Tell this someone who was in this situation as a child and now with all the problems of the shaken confidence and unable to love someone.....
Oh my god! Really?! I love you security posts, really but I have to stay away from this CP threads. I could cry just from reading this bullshit.
And on a side note, if someone consumes Adult porn with violence it can easily lead into a change of erotic feelings and a "new picture" in their heads.
The point I was trying to make is that pedophiles do not choose to be pedophiles anymore than a homosexual chooses to be a homosexual, I believe the 'I was born this way' (ie: had no choice) slogan was popularized by the homosexual movement, but it applies equally to pretty much any sexual preference.
I really can only theoretically understand the thinking pattern that you (and many others) are using, but I personally find it highly illogical, to the point that it is actually kind of confusing for me.

Has to do with MOLESTATION. The inability for people to distinguish between pedophilia and child molestation is as strange as it is common, I blame propaganda and media sensationalism for this phenomenon. People sometimes talk about child porn consumption directly causing some mystical voodoo process known as "revictimization" but there is absolutely no basis for this, it is essentially the same as asking me to believe that stabbing pins in a voodoo doll caricature of me will cause me to feel pain. Some people argue that access to child pornography increases a pedophiles risk of offending, but just as many studies say that it decreases the risk. Who knows what to believe in this world full of intense information warfare. So fall back to a morality stance, and increased probability of a pedophile molesting a child is not reason enough in my eyes to criminalize the behavior, that is pre-crime and pre-crime is bullshit. Some people argue that the commercial market or certain distribution structures result in the demand for child pornography causing production, but commercial child pornography is essentially non-existent in recent times, and at best this is an argument against certain distribution structures. I remain entirely unconvinced that viewing child porn is a particularly bad thing, although I am personally not turned on by children so avoid it
