And the amount of hate some people have...
Maybe we need to address mental health since this has been a thing since humans were...human. we're all animals. Why some of us rape is beyond most of our understanding and why some of us are attracted to another creature not able to reproduce is beyond like all of us.

I think it was batman that said killing a killer, still leaves with a killer.
Taking out someone who committed the crime does not prevent the crime from ever happening, just that one person.

Anger makes you stupid. Let's channel our anger and make it productive.
I'm all for preventative measures. I honestly think that none are beyond help, as long as they haven't taken that first step and acted on their desires. However, once that happens, that door should be shut, and they should be removed from society one way or another (I prefer permanently, but I'm not in charge), ok?

But either way, my remark was more suggesting we might have a lot of users here on this very board who share similar desires, ok?

You say that as if pedos choose to be attracted to kids. The choice is whether they act on their urges.

That is the exact opposite of what I said. I said guys are attracted to women all the time, heck, ones that specifically dress up extremely sexy, yet don't rape them. It should be the norm, not the exception. Guys don't get to choose if they are attracted to women either, just if they act on it and how.

I think adjl was saying that we should treat the ones that dont act on their urges as normal people, since they didnt act on the urges that actual child molesters do... I think...

Most of those guys have the option of acting on their attraction without hurting people. Bear in mind also that a lot of child molestation isn't as overt and forcible as people tend to consider rape to be. That doesn't make it any better, of course, but it does make it easier for the person doing it to rationalize it as being consensual enough (or at least to skip the step of considering whether or not their "partner" can actually consent).


I am of course only talking about actual molestation, although things like sleeping in the bed naked with kids is obviously wrong and should prevent anyone doing that from being alone with kids in the future. If someone controls themselves fine, sucks that is what they are attracted to, but if they don't do anything harmful about it, then good for them, they are a decent human being.

Try talking to a friend about it for support, and odds are you'll lose a friend, not end up with somebody who will discourage you from applying to be a gym teacher. As long as people hear "pedophile" and think "child molester" (lumping people who consume child porn in with that), that's not going to change, which means you're going to get more people with pedophilic urges trying (and potentially failing) to handle them on their own.

Again, I do think people should come forward and I think it shouldn't be villianized to have such feelings or desires, just to actually act on them. They should get help to prevent such actions from happening, and by identifying themselves will be put in less positions where it could. Sadly humans seem to be selfish and even if such help was available, I don't think most would use it :(

I even consider virutal (anime etc) child porn should be illegal because it could escalate someone etc.

I'd actually consider that to be one of the healthy outlets I alluded to earlier. Virtual stuff is actually harmless to make, meaning consuming it isn't harmful. That's not to say its consumption isn't cause for concern or that anyone using it as an outlet doesn't need to be seeking other help to keep their urges under control, but saying that it should be illegal because its consumers might want more is like saying that money should be illegal because it might make those who have it want to steal more. Illegality should be based on actual harm, not the presumption that it might inspire somebody to escalate to something more harmful (see also: "gateway drug").

See I get that nobody directly is harmed here, and in an eventual society where people were easily identified or came forward it might be different, but in a world where there are people out there who are attracted to kids, this kinda stuff could be dangerous. Is a crime being commited? No not really, it's technically art etc, but it could lead to crimes so I think the best bet is to prevent it from being created/spread around etc. Yeah it's a legal grey spot, but I think it's worth it. Laws can be created based on the majority of people considering it best for society.

Generally a knee-jerk overreaction, but basically, yeah. Child molesters suck and deserve pretty much all the hate they get (although the "won't somebody think of the children?!?!" attitude that drives people to consider it the worst crime ever is thoroughly irrational). I don't disagree there.


It's not a knee jerk reaction for me. I worked as a teacher, care about kids, and hate the fact that we live in a world where we have to be so careful with them. None of my students were even abducted or harmed, but we had tons of security to ensure that. It seems like the worst crime because it happens to those so young and can seriously ruin/harm their lives. Rape in any form is horrid, and sex offenders should be segregated from society, but yes, many people have a strong reaction to children being abused or harmed/put in danger etc. I think it's ingrained in us.

You basically just described a concentration camp. Being based on criminal convictions instead of some politician's genocidal inclinations takes a lot of the sting out of the concept, but it's still not really a reasonable approach. Rehabilitative prison and post-release restrictions (i.e. not being allowed to work with kids) is generally going to be more reasonable, though obviously America kind of struggles with the whole "rehabilitation" thing.

Not at all, I'm talking about something better (by far) than our current prisons. You might call it a concentration camp, but it is WAY better then what we currently have. Basically full towns, with homes/apartments, that have places to eat just like normal homes, grocery stores etc. There are no kids at all though, you can't have a family inside, you can't leave whenever you want etc, but you can live a normal life otherwise (possibly even better than some since your guarrenteed a job etc). Is this perfect? Heck no, but it's WAY better then the current jail system, and would be sustainable (money wise).

Lol no

You've got a lot of people to arrest for hentai.

Also pedophilia doesn't "progress" like cancer. It's a fetish, and the more you suppress it the more it comes out, so you would probably indirectly be responsible for more molested children if you did that. Like, the only real world non-moronic solution to pedophilia is drawn pictures to keep people from going to the real world with it.

If you have a scab don't scratch it off. This topic is essentially "I hate tumors so much that I'm going to cut them all off because I'm a real healthy person, unlike those pussy doctors".

Alabama went for this solution that's been proven ineffective because Alabama appeals to simple people.

While I see what youre saying, the opposite is also true. As its their only safe outlet. And could cause more problems if they cant use that. Not to mention, loli stuff probably isnt going anywhere anytime soon... And most people probably wouldnt agree to a law that prevents something like anime characters. Thats very unlikely to happen...

I like anime, and loli basically is sexualized young looking chars right? It's not actual sex with them, or pictures of them naked etc? From my understanding loli stuff wouldn't be illegal then.

Anything that depicts adults having sex with kids though would be, or porn with kid like characters etc. I do not think that is common at least right now.

I don't know if there is such thing as a "Safe" outlet for something like that. If I look at pictures of pizza on the internet, that isn't going to stop me from wanting pizza, it's going to make me want that pizza MUCH MORe and soon. I love pizza....I don't wanna have sex with it, but I just about enjoy it as much as sex. I HATE seeing pizza comercials at 3 am, when I can't get any good pizza. It's freaking torture.

I'd say that would be the same thing for pedophiles seeing pictures and never getting any of what they really want, why torture yourself?

I can't get delicious NY pizza (there is one place in NY in particular with such good pizza I dream about it). I don't go online and look at pictures of that pizza to ease my cravings, that would be insane. I would quickly end up flying to NY just for that pizza (again, did it in my 20's).

So yeah, nope on the scratching an itch etc, the best outlet is something else that has nothing to do with kids at all. People redirect sexual urges into sports, art and tons of other things. Do that, not look at pictures of kids.

I mean its a bit different then eating pizza.

There no paralells I can think of for masturbating for when it comes to eating pizza. If you were to compare it then eating of the pizza is more like sex. You dont need to have sex to have your sexual urges satiated. On here alone theres plenty of 30 year old virgins who get off on just masturbation.

Loli anime doesnt have sex, but thats because its anime. Hentai is different. And theres Loli hentai. But that also wont wont be outlawed. Because loli means they look and act like children. But it doesnt mean they are children. Which then makes it legal...

And if they did outlaw it here (which they wont), they could move to Japan. Anything goes there, it seems...

You can say that for you. But you cant say that for others. I know people on diets who looks at cakes and others sweets to help them stop wanting them as much. So, theres that... So, just because it doesnt work for you doesnt mean it wont work for them. Not to mention, as adjl said, their brains are wired differently... So, I still stand by what I said. Its a safe outlet. And probably the safest...

Wouldnt that still be eating, though. That would probably be like the handjobs and blowjobs of the sex worlds. Still still sex with another. Just not full vaginal/anal sex. Haha.

There are laws in place in most states that restrict where sex offenders can live, usually within 1000 feet of a school, park, daycare, etc. Many larger cities deliberately do things like put down a single bench on the side of a street and classify it as a "park" to make the entire surrounding area off limits, that and letting anyone start a "daycare" regardless of if they have any qualifications or accreditation to further cut off parts of the area (totally kid safe).

The thing is, like the objectively proven thing, is that the chance of some guy snatching a kid off the street outside of a school/park, especially one within a close distance to his house is incredibly small and if we're talking someone already convicted of a sex crime almost 0%. The vast majority of cases of child abuse come from within the home or from a close family friend or relative. The laws passed to stop the almost non existent threat of stranger abductions by segregating sex offenders don't really do anything except create situations where they all get grouped together since most would be on some sort of probation or parole and be forced to live in a certain town or city even though the majority of the city is off limits to them. That and give easy votes to politicians for being "tough on crime" .

And then what happens next is people complain and ask why such a thing is allowed, letting so many criminals congregate where there are probably still kids running around anyways. There was a case in my town years ago where a little girl was dismembered by some mad man in such a place full of sex offenders, but the guy who did it wasn't one of them but that's all the media could focus on, this "secret" sex offender trailer park and how dangerous it must be. Not the unrelated child murder or anything.

The empathy most of you seem to have for child molesters is concerning, to say the least, ok?

It's concerning that people have empathy for human beings?

Not every "child molester" molested children. You realize that, right?

Not everyone in prison is guilty for their crime.

Sometimes there are false accusations that can lead to arrests.

Sometimes juries can be INCREDIBLY stupid....and convict someone of a crime they didn't commit. They were just easily swayed by a fancy lawyer and some kind of personal bias the prosecutor took advantage of.

Sometimes juries convict someone just because they are more scared by the possibility he didn't commit the crime....but it would be worse to risk letting an innocent man go free on the OFF CHANCE he did commit the crime.

Sometimes the law just needs someone to take a fall for the crime. There needs to be blame and justice assigned.

You have to take into consideration that some of the people in prison are totally innocent, so perhaps stringing them all up by their balls in a public square while an audience cheers....isn't exactly the best idea?

If the system isn't reasonably accurate then you can't do any penalty. If you can imprison someone for 15 years by trusting the accuracy of your judgement, you can use the same trust to torture a theoretically innocent person.

It's one thing to put a man in a cell for a crime he may or may not have committed.

It's another thing entirely to put that man in a cell....and then slowly cut his balls off with a dull knife. And then cut his eyes out. And then flay him. Pour salt on him. Piss on him.

Torturing him in such a way says more about the country that can imprisoned him, than the crime he allegedly committed.

There's no difference I see worth noting. 15 years of imprisonment is insanely cruel, a day of brutal torture is just a quicker way to dole it out. As far as I'm concerned, if you're willing to subject an innocent man to 15 years of prison, you should be willing to kill one or torture one. If you're not willing to do that, then you're only choosing prison so you don't have to witness their torture and take it on personally.

No difference worth noting?! Jesus Christ. Are you serious? Or are you just being disagreeable for the sake of being disagreeable?

Simply putting a man in a cell......you are separating him from society so he is no longer a danger to anyone.

Skinning him alive, covering him in salt, cutting his balls off, cutting out his eyes, and any other form of physical torture you can think of......now you are just being sadistic. It has gone from separating him from society.....to personally torturing him. It went from a logical punishment......to petty vengeance and bloodthirst.

If you see no difference, I highly suggest seeing a therapist.

I would choose neither if I had a choice and just die, but if I had to choose between being put in a cell for 10 years, or being tortured for 1 day, I would go with being tortured for 1 day (I'd still fight against that torture though).

Keeping people in cells is horrid, and should only be done in a worst case scenerio and only with the CONSENT of that person where the other option is death.

Don't feel like killing them because of religious reasons etc, fine, but give them the ability to kill themselves at least.

Do not stick people in over crowded, unsafe, torture chambers for decades.

It's horrific.

It's not just what those predators have done directly, which is horrid enough, but the fact that it has changed our society so children are no longer free to be children, where you can't trust strangers around them, where teachers (at least male ones) can not comfort or hold a child who is upset.

Sexual predators have created a society of fear. I don't think people on here are really defending them though. Defending the right to create art for instance, isn't totally wrong, and I admit my stance on such art is controversial.
I hate the way things have changed within my lifetime. I was lucky enough to go to a private school at the end (for one year) and it was like a family. Everyone cared for all the kids there, and I was often in charge of watching them etc. Such a thing wouldn't be done now, you wouldn't trust other adults to watch the kids, people won't just send them over to each others homes and I doubt there are such family like schools at this point. It's a really sad thing to me.

It's only a small number of people who could/would harm kids, but it has had a huge impact on how almost all children live in this day and age. There are tons of sad things in the world, but this is certainly a big one (and I know, it was always around and happened, it just wasn't as well known...so in some ways it's better now since less children are actually (hopefully) being abused/hurt. It still sucks though.

The media sensationalizing and hyper focusing on horrific but ultimately extremely rare cases while largely ignoring more widespread but "mundane" cases of child abuse has created a society of fear. Negative emotions like fear, anger, and hatred are their bread and butter after all. I could even get into the research that suggests the extreme reaction people have towards certain cases of abuse is just as damaging to the child as the act itself, but that's an even touchier subject.

Why oh why does society focus on protecting vulnerable children instead of defending the rights and freedoms of sexual predators -potd, apparently
Right, opposing cruel and unusual punishment of criminals because we're a society that believes in some fundamental human decency means that we don't care about protecting vulnerable children.

Philia is not an action. Unless you want to police thoughts.

If someone keeps it to themselves, let them be.

Philia means brotherly love. How is the death penalty brotherly love?

Relatives are significantly more likely to molest your children than some strange guy at the park.

And opposing cruel and unusual punishment doesn't mean you aren't valuing the protection of children....and it doesn't mean you are defending pedophilia either.

But I can understand how some people might want to jump to such conclusions....because their minds only operate in extremes and they are only on this message board to get into arguments.

Just another day on Gamefaqs.

Offensive (according to GameFaqs): sexually explicit, gory, or other obscene content.
Different opinions are not offensive unless they contain these elements.

that's how a lot of people are in the real world too unfortunately. people in general are very narrow-minded and it takes a lot for some to actually listen to another view point or argument.

Right? That pesky 8th amendment. I want to to violate some basic human rights, what's a little casual bodily mutilation? Must be a bunch of pedos here.

Simply putting a man in a cell......you are separating him from society so he is no longer a danger to anyone.

You are "simply" taking away a large section of their life they will never get back and guaranteeing there will be nothing for them when they leave.

Don't even, prison isn't "just a room", you're ignoring the brutality as is convenient and normal.

GreenKnight127 posted...
It went from a logical punishment......to petty vengeance and bloodthirst.

There's nothing logical about imprisonment, it's all petty vengeance for the appeasement of society.

The point of the law is to ensure wronged people gain suitable vengeance in a standardised way so you don't get feuding civilians escalating trouble. If vengeance is not delivered then people get restless, that's all there is.

Don't be a coward, if you really feel somebody has molested a child, go all out and give them the death they deserve, don't sit on the fence and fail to deliver vengeance. We will occasionally get the wrong person, but that's the price we pay to ensure the public gets its retribution.

It's ineffective, I believe RKelly was using similar drugs to reduce his libido and it didn't do shit, thus not a good idea.

Nope, you're muddying the waters.
cool, i had no clue you're r kelly's private physician, ok?

If the castration worked, then it would be prescriptive.
you have evidence showing it doesn't?

Pedophiles that don't progress into child molesters deserve respect for their self-control, not the same vilification that they would face if they did find themselves a toddler to diddle.

Still you expect me to feel respect to someone who would think sexually about my niece and nephews who are kids because they haven't acted on it? For someone as smart as yourself that's one stupid expectation. A bullet to the head is what they deserve.

Yes, just as you should respect your friend who wants to bone your wife but doesn't.

I assume there is an equivalent in place also for females that are pedos and child molestors also.

I respect the person who thinks about raping my dog on a daily bases too. Spoiler: I have no dog.
Honestly though while paedophiles and child molesters are different they are both scum on the earth so deserve the same punishment in my eyes. I would say "get pedos help" but honestly they don't deserve the time, money and resources wasted on them when folk who actually deserve help are going without and even taking their own lifes. I'm all for helping with most mental health issues but not that kind.

You also have no wife or friend, it's an analogy.

I imagine you consider yourself one of those people deserving help, despite pedophiles as a whole on average contributing more to society than you.

If someone is attracted to children and has shown that they cant control those urges and has harmed children, then I really dont consider it cruel or unusual to give them drugs to suppress their libido as a precaution to protect children from them
