SOSEN…
Uncommon Sense edition 4, has a rather good article pertaining directly to something, which has been on my mind for a while.
…and that is, sex offender law reform groups, and the general hostility that some of them show towards self identified child/teen lovers, and adults/minors who refuse to accept the victim/abuser paradigm, or the stigma surrounding various forms of human sexuality.
If you reserve the right, to say and believe that the blow job you received at age 9 was not abuse, then chances are…some of these groups do not think to highly of you.
SOSEN is a group, which focuses on reforming sex offender registries…and as such, they have much overlapping common ground, with many of us out here, in the broader sexual liberation movement.
…However, they took the step of condemning NAMBLA, a handful of months back, and disassociating themselves with various other groups, who do not outright shun NAMBLA, or who do associate with any NAMBLA members.
While I think this is much to their groups own peril, I appreciate that people’s choices need to be respected…and they are free to unassociate.
It is incredibly sad, depressing and frustrating, to witness anything that might be reasonably called “in fighting”…just senseless bickering, and wasting of energy, fighting amongst the wrong people.
We should be allies, to whatever extent we can be, and our goals match…Yet, you read the SOSEN blog, and you may come across messages from members saying…
…”[They'd] be the first to [assault, insult, ban or otherwise hinder] a pedophile”…
This paraphrase is actually based upon member comments, at their blog…
I keep thinking to myself…
…”You don’t need to be this nasty, or abusive”…
There is nothing served in being like this.
It has also been noticed, that groups like Corrupted-Justice [a whistle blowing group, aimed at Perverted Justice], also has members who are prone towards hostility, aimed at anyone who identifies in a positive way, as a child/teen lover…
There is to much senseless fighting going on, when all it does is waste the time and resources, of people who are largely working towards the same goals.
I respect that a lot of people associated with both groups, are not themselves miner attracted persons…and hence, lack any personal reference to empathise with…
…but, good grief…Cannot you see the connections, between how our exposure of law, politics, abuse and hate fight corruption, and how your fighting is aimed at the exact same goal?
I don’t hate the people of SOSEN, or like groups [though, I do believe some of them are self loathing, child/teen lovers, who never really found themselves]…but given their track record, I do not trust them on a personal basis.
It feels so outrageous, that hate has to exist, even in places like that.
Rape Apologists…
I am not a rape apologist.
I do not deny, overlook or excuse real violence and rape…nor do I absolve those who are responsible. In fact, if you bother to look at my history, it is starkly clear that I have never embraced true, sexual violence, nor excused acts of violence and real abuse. I support accountability, and always have.
What I do, is recognise that many people take an absurdly broad definition of “rape”, and use it deceptively in order to impose their own intentions, upon others who disagree with them, or would otherwise choose not to follow their wishes.
I also recognise, that this behavior is counterproductive, it wastes public resources without providing a true public good, it devastates peoples lives [often being the worst, or only, trauma involved in the entire conflict], and it creates different subclasses of citizen, vulnerable to gross exploitation.
When I take a stand, I am telling you and anyone else out there…
…that you have no right to usurp the voices of others, nor to subvert their life experiences, by subjectively labeling “rape”, those experiences which they [child or adult] would willfully choose for themselves to experience.
You do not have the right, to take those experiences we [child or adult] find personal value in, deny the good we have received from them, fabricate a fraudulent injury from it, and completely mischaracterize it…[certainly not without being exposed, for the poor quality, dishonest character which you possess].
We [child and adult] have right to the integrity of our own cognition…and dishonest assault on our cognition, is an assault against us.
I condemn all who call “rape”, things which cannot sanely be recognised as rape, by those who are experiencing them, and willingly [often enthusiastically] choose to participate.
Human sexuality is a beautiful thing…
…Children are humans, too…they have a sexuality, and full ability to engage and benefit from it…These experiences are life enhancing.
You do not have the right to call human sexuality “rape”, just because some people suppose certain types of human sexuality are socially inconvenient…or because of superstitious objections…or because of incompetent ignorance of natural, human sexuality…or because legislators hold a vote, and come up with subjective lists…or because of simple ageism…or because of sex-phobia…or because you are uncomfortable with it, and just wish others wouldn’t…or, or, or…
Calling beautiful, sexual experiences “a rape”, is a filthy, wretched lie.
…and I will continue to consistently call the people who do this, liars…I will identify them, as people lacking integrity, and not associated with honesty.
Not one single thing about this, makes me a “rape apologist”…
I am simply identifying those amongst us, who live with a sex psychosis…and often a predatory disposition, of control, abuse and exploitation of others.
Rick Roberts Wants to Know…
“Rick went back to your calls on the Dubois tragedy. He talked about how things were when he was a kid. He asked when it was that things changed so drastically… Why, for instance, sex crimes seem so common these days.
One of the fundamental reasons, is because so much more human sexuality has been criminalized, focused on with an obsession and demonized.
The repression, and violence towards all hints of stigmatized sexuality, have lead to a lot of frustration, anger and maladjustment…in all of those who have been denied their humanity, and a valid chance to love those they naturally would.
So you see, Rick…
…this is a double assault, where increasing technicalities of the law have infringed upon natural, beautiful sexuality, replacing it with violence and hate…and where the fallout of said violence and hate, has created an even uglier backlash of brutality.
It is a cycle, of broken practices creating broken minds…
…How else can one expect these targets to react, when they have nowhere else to go?…or no escape?
Gay & Lesbian Activists, That Just Don’t Get It…
“…one of our favorite Dr. Laura quotes: “How many letters have I read on the air from gay men who acknowledge that a huge portion of the male homosexual populace is predatory on young boys?” [...] and we were outraged that Paramount would give a national platform to someone intent on spreading that kind of intolerance against a class of Americans.”
Of course, nobody deserves having their character smeared, and being called “predatory”, when they factually are nothing of the sort.
…but, here is the issue…
They spend no time contesting the validity of the accusation [that said behavior is "predatory on young boys"], and merely try to distance themselves from “that kind of behavior”.
It is not a question of whether or not this “deserves” to be called predatory…Many so called progressives, buy into the pop culture intolerance, hook, line and sinker…and without any deeper, critical examination.
It is a question of whether or not, they themselves, are being associated with anything stigmatised, that might hold them back socially and politically.
The fact that calling man/boy sexual relations “predatory”, as an absolute default, is a lie, does not even factor into how or why they respond.
There is no integrity, in searching out and standing up for the truth…It is just all about retreating from the stigma and lies.
Many of these gay and lesbian groups, are all to willing to repeat these exact same lies…and propagate hate, violence and intolerance…so long as they don’t perceive it, as coming back on themselves in a bad way.
They demand that others treat them with integrity and respect, yet refuse these same dignities to others.
Astonishingly incredulous, but true.
It is not my intent to point fingers and condemn others…but, it is high time, that groups who claim to be for truth and freedom, actually stand for these things, unflinchingly across the board.
It is time they addressed the issues of political smearing aimed at all sexual minorities…and issues of integrity, honesty and respect for the life choices of others.
If they only focus on looking out for their own skewed interests, then they probably aren’t much of a supporter of freedom and honesty, in the wider sense.
This is one of the biggest tragedies, of the gay and lesbian movement.
Ryan Sorba – The Born Gay Hoax…
It seems like there are always a surplus of people, all to ready to redefine and dismiss…in order that realities of life not hinder their own prejudice.
Is being born gay “a hoax”?…
Being homosexual is a simple reality of nature, for those who have experienced life as homosexuals.
True, not everyone is comfortable with being different, and the social dangers posed by those who are intolerant of sexual diversity, is difficult to live with…
…but, the emergence of homosexuality is transparent, to the individual…It is just there, to be discovered…and this typically happens, at an early age.
For many of us, this is an alternative, yet parallel, experience to those who are heterosexual.
Homosexuality is part of who we are…This exists, in place of being heterosexual.
Many people deny the possibility, of being born gay…
…but, the true life experiences of so many of us, who grew up homosexual, stand as a sound contest to this.
Homosexuality is in born, at least to some degree.
I would never consider dismissing the role of culture, entirely. However, the only thing culture is likely to introduce, is a general understanding on levels of social acceptance…Or, in other words, it can make clear, a level of tolerance and open-mindedness…which can ease tensions, and reluctance, to explore these kinds of attractions.
If you are to intimidated to even talk about it, then you are unlikely to try it, even if you are homosexual. This is why so many anti-homosexual people are aggressive, towards every expression of positive homosexuality, within their culture.
It is important to keep in mind, though, that a general permissiveness is not going to instill a sexual attraction.
That must already exist, within the individual…
If it does not, then encouragement towards homosexuality does absolutely nothing, to those people who would not have been inclined to have homosexual relations, in the first place.
471 Sex Crimes Against Delaware Pediatrician…
471 Sex Crimes Against Delaware Pediatrician
Do people get into the field of pediatric medical care, in order to fulfill a sexual desire?
No doubt, a few do.
It saddens me to know, that anyone would ever think that this is either acceptable, or that it is “their only option” to know a child intimately…
…and then again, maybe…this man is just sadistic on a personal level…and he gets off on violent rape?
I don’t want to speculate very much, as I don’t know his circumstances, or the path that led him to this dreadful set of circumstances.
I should note, however…This is one of the very few case stories I’ve encountered, where the “victim count” [literal victims, or not] made it to the triple digits [though, it's just a little past 100].
These kinds of cases are extremely rare…which is why it made the news.
Someone in his position had resources [drugs] available to him, no doubt, to assist him in getting away with this for so long…otherwise, one would be left to wonder, if he were doing violent assaults on children, then how is it that none talked, or showed signs of the assault?
…Or, maybe they have one, or two [or a handful of] charges against him, and they decided to pull his entire clientele into the investigation, claiming they are all “victims”?
Such distortions are very possible, when it comes to this kind of news.
I am curious as to why anyone felt the need to clarify, that “one of the victims was a boy”. That just came off as bizarre. It is as though they had the opportunity to claim homosexual assault, so they went ahead and did so…for shock value?
I do not see the relevance.
For the record…if these charges are true, then this guy should be locked away for a long, long time…and he may never see the outside world, again.
I recognise that kind of behavior, as both predatory and gross exploitation. You do not present yourself to others, under an unrelated and important pretext [ie: being a doctor to service your child's needs], just to turn around and force some kind of blatant assault [on those who were brought to you, in order to tend to their medical needs].
I am reminded of Dr. Adam Selene [a BoyChat poster, from years back, who was a knowledgeable doctor]…and how he sternly rebuked an anonymous poster [a troll?], who asked for advice, as to whether they should become a pediatrician, in order to gain access to children.
“You don’t get into the medical field, unless you sincerely want to help people”, and “This is no place to get your sexual thrills”, are how I would [more nicely] sum up Dr. Selene’s message.
I agree.
This is just about as bad, as the “pedophile priests”…
We, as a society, need to start getting smart…and looking at the root problems, which would drive anyone to these kinds of behaviors [and in some cases, atrocities].
You know…I don’t tend to highlight these kinds of cases on my personal websites, though I’ve addressed many of them [at places like BoyChat] over the years.
I do not ignore them [not at all], it is just that my focus has been on bringing the world to a well rounded, even understanding of “pedophilia”, and the issues surrounding it.
I figure, within hours…hundreds [probably thousands] of people will have pounced upon this news story…and they will be letting the whole world know of their own outrage, and whatever it is they think “should be done to” this guy.
I try to provide not only a better quality of personal character, but also a higher standard of integrity, than what you would typically find on the internet…and I hope this comes through clearly.
I refuse to engage in the typical, online behavior.
This is why I normally focus on the positive, rational aspects of “pedophilia”, and upon confronting the social resistance towards it…as well as other forms of taboo, human sexuality.
We need far more level headed voices, like what I am providing.
We need to band together, and remove the broken social behaviors, which would drive anyone to do the kinds of things, that honestly can be called “sexual assault” [on children or adults]…
…but, at the same time, we must respect that there is a clear, distinct line between healthy sexuality [and development], and predatory assault.
We cannot ever hope to effectively address real sexual violence, until we are ready to get serious about not convoluting the issues, and not allowing sex laws, to be used as weapons against peaceful, sexual minorities.
As things stand, persecuted sexual minorities will only be driven underground…Some will become desperate and angry, because they have no safe outlet. These circumstances only act to inflame, whatever serious dangers already exist.
…This pattern of political, social behavior, only acts to encourage sexual violence, and other forms of violence, including murder.
We need to focus on the root social problems, not spend our time, recklessly calling for this guys head on a platter, or seeking bloody revenge.
Is nobody else, at all, interested in confronting these issues, in a way that actually means something?
“Do Death a Favor and Kill Yourself”?…
Wow…More hate speech on YouTube…and it has been up, for over a year and a half, now.
Should Atheists Commit Mass Suicide?
So, this young man seems to believe, that because the views and opinions of others do not accommodate his own preconceptions, that means those people have no purpose to live…and hence, they should just kill themselves.
He even goes so far, as to offer advice [via private messaging], as to how to go about committing suicide, while making your death appear from natural cause.
The message is pointed at atheists [obviously]…
Seemingly, because we don’t define our existence, based upon religious lore…this renders us, what?…”invalid”?…”undeserving of life”?
As an atheist, as a homosexual, as a child lover…I have every bit as much right to exist, and live, as any other person on this planet.
…and, no…People like that young man, do not have any business, strongly implying to others that their life is not justified enough, to continue on living.
It is none of his concern, that I decline the poorly crafted, and unsupported, god concept…or other mystical superstitions, for that matter.
I’d be willing to bet, he rejects a lot of religious lore, himself…most especially, that not adhering to his own, familiar religion.
Who is to say, his own beliefs are not “meaningless”, or worse…because he is following a false god, in a false religion?
Good grief!…
Is there no sanity, or common sense, in this world?
It does not matter, if you think that arrival at some “happy land of death”, is the ultimate goal of life.
What we really know, is that life exists, and we are here, regardless of what we do, or do not, understand and like.
It is not for you, or anyone else, to subjectively dismiss my own existence, or right to struggle on in life.
What an example, of sickening levels of contempt…
As to, “how could you not exist?”…
Think about this question…
What status did you exist in, prior to birth?
By any honest examination, you simply did not exist…and anything which has been put forward, in attempts of answering this question in a contrary manner, falls squarely into the realm of mystical lore.
What is so difficult, about understanding that we return to this status?
You must have a very crippled mind, in order to have problems with understanding such a basic concept.
Now, “why haven’t I killed myself, already?”…
Inevitable consequences of life [ie: death], are not reason enough to abort life.
It makes no sense, at all, that anyone would make such a conclusion.
Maybe, I enjoy some aspects of being alive?
Why should I throw that away, over some simplistic idea, that “none of this matters, so we should just quit”?
That young guy has a lot of personal growth and learning ahead of him [hopefully]…and he needs to learn empathy for others.
Oh Look! YouTube Does Offer Alternatives…
…and a chance to bring your account back into good standing…
…Well…they do for some, apparently privileged, groups of people.
Being someone who has never actually seen YouTube reach out, with a respectful, understanding and balanced response, towards perceived violations in “terms of service”, this video really caught my attention.
Wow…they really go into detail, with the person in question…even pinpointing exactly where, in the video, the “offense” started.
YouTube gave him 48 hours, to “correct” this very clearly defined material.
There really is no question at all, as to what YouTube is referencing, or what YouTube expects this person to comply to.
My question is…
…If YouTube is this concerned, and that dedicated to working through conflicts amongst it’s users…
…then where was “my” ultimatum?…where was the clarity, in specifying how “I”, allegedly, violated their “terms of service”?…and where the hell was even so much, as a simple e-mail, acknowledging me, or my account, or what some bigot was doing to me?
I went from no problems [except being cyberstalked and threatened, by online sociopaths using YouTube], with an account continually in good standing…to a full stop, suspended account…which I got locked out of, without even so much respect, as a simple acknowledgement that I exist…
Now, that is true contempt.
It is inexcusably shameful behavior, on the part of YouTube…which continues to sweep this kind of behavior under the rug, and whitewash it.
In contrast, it actually floors me, to see evidence of various other targeted people, where YouTube actually takes the time, and care, to respectfully work with people…and resolve the conflict at hand.
I never had problems with YouTube prior to the sudden locking of my account…I minded my own business, and was not harassing anyone.
In all of this, YouTube lost sight of the fact, that I was the one, being targeted and abused by other YouTube users.
YouTube’s response in all of this, was to victimise me all over again, by taking away my account…while allowing the accounts, of those who have lied about me, and disparaged my character, to remain unchallenged.
That is wrong, unethical and just flat out abusive.
Words of Hate: Religion Inspired Terrorism and Abuse…
Richard Dawkins Reads His Hate Mail
The God Delusion Excerpt: Hate Mail
…Do I need to add additional commentary here?
My apologies to those offended, by the graphic chosen for the video…but, that’s how the person uploading this content, chose to present it…and I have no choice in that decision. I would have linked to an alternative, if I knew one were available.
You know, amongst the tragic things about all of this…
…is all the people engaged in this kind of behavior, who do not think of themselves as terrorists…or even just abusive.
A lot of them, immediately following, and while committing these deeds, consider themselves to be “good, decent, respectable and kind people”, no doubt.
Where did their common sense and sanity evaporate to?
Who ever told them, that this sort of behavior is acceptable?…or good?
Is this how their parents raised them?
Some of those comments and threats, are quite violent and demented.
Why “The Religious” Are So Disliked…
A possible reason for not liking christians
Actually, amongst the most pressing issues, respect for individuals rights, and diversity, is probably at the top of the list.
Many religions have dominion-ism, as their primary focus. Because of this, they aim to control and manipulate as many people as possible. Whomever cannot be controlled, they aim to marginalize in order to erode their political status…and in worst case scenarios, those kinds of people get out right murdered, in the name of “divine right [or justice]“.
In spite of the fact, that many people within the religion prefer to overlook this…this fundamental truth still exists, and manifests itself in many ways.
People who are not under the influence of these religions, recognise the encroachment upon their own lives, and the freedoms they value.
Not only does this create a very real, very justified sense of offense and threatened assault, but also one of alarm…and a need to go into a defensive mode.
Those who are religious, have a tendency for flocking together, and seizing political power…and stripping rights from others, who do not subscribe to their own beliefs, dogma, or agendas.
A great many of us who are not religious, have recognised this behavior, and the threat which it poses to everything from civil peace, to the very chance of staying alive and living life to it’s fullest.
If you are religious, and you want religion to be worthy of respect…then push for religion to respect, and not tread upon, the freedoms and viewpoints of other groups…even including those groups, who reject religion.
This is key.
It really is about “human to human” respect.
The contempt within religion, is poison.
