Pedophilia is a medical condition.

[Stop Pretending]

Thought crime anyone? Society cannot be free if people can be punished for "wanting" things.

I didn't say lock them up for thinking it, the fact people are defending those thoughts, is what i have an issue with.

So? Thoughts are free - as long as they don't do it, they can think of whatever they want.
A lot of people think about killing someone. Doesn't mean that they actually do it. You can't punish someone because they imagine killing someone. That's ridiculous.

No but if someone thinks about murdering people as far as watching say snuff movies, if caught he should be punished AND kept under watch by weekly therapy

In what sense are people defending them, other than not wanting people punished for them? People are choosing to be a pedophile. I'm not going to waste my time judging someone on a thought they can't control when they're not acting on it.

Lmfao, what do you want us to do? Purge their minds with MIB technology? You're entitled to every silly thought in your head; until you act on it.

It's not like at inception the fetus goes "boy I hope I'm born a pedophile!"

Though you get points on being a prophet though.

Edit: I can't spell an acronym I am so good.

While being attracted to "children" can be considered a medical condition, becoming a pedophile is a crime. Upon acting on the urges, the person, man or woman, deserves the harshest punishment for their crimes, equally. I think it should be given the harshest punishments, as children are the future.

We can't be thought police though, and even if we could, that sets a terrible standard.

Those whom have sexually suggestive thoughts of children should be given guidance and therapy on managing those thoughts, they shouldn't be hunted and harmed for it, they didn't ask to be born a certain way.

While I still wouldn't say "pedophilia is okay", I gotta agree with RapBreon. So long as it stays in your head, you shouldn't be able to be persecuted for it. The problem is when it affects others.



Like I said: a lot of people you would call normal have rape fantasies. About getting raped, being the rapist -- or both, but have never acted on "those fantasies". Are those rapists now, too?

You have a problem with people being against those who want to judge people for things that are out of their control? You don't choose to be a pedophile, I'm pretty sure most if not all of them would wish they didn't have those thoughts and desires.

Pedophilia, so far as I know, refers just to being attracted to children. Not necessarily to acting on the urges that attraction brings with them.

That's what a pedophile is. The term you're looking for is child molester/rapist.

Looks at your sig, uh huh.

What does that even have to do with anything?

But if you see my sig as related to paedophilia, then its you who has a problem, sorry to bring you the news.

Yeah. (Especially) Because - like with child porn - those people create a demand for such shit.

It isn't. Becoming a child molester is a crime, though.

What this dude said, beat me too it. Though my stance on punishment in general is fairly 'eh'. Go Finland!

can't be proved

[RapBreon]

Huh?

A medical condition? I certainly hope I don't catch a case of it, hopefully they develop a vaccine for it soon...although if the vaccine didn't work I'd not only be a pedo from contracting this medical condition..I'd also become an autistic pedo as well. Hopefully if I eat enough GMO rutabagas I'll develop the secret wang-cancer that Monsanto is putting in their seeds (shhh!!) and if I do catch a bad case of the 'philes I won't have to worry about getting boners while watching Fullhouse reruns.
