    And straight back to your ad hominem dodges.



    Exactly. Now you are getting it. Only took 406 posts to get there.

    And I am saying that this is irresponsible of you at best ......... at worst it's actually enabling a potential abuser to hurt your children.

    How many times and in how many ways must I say that I am not willing to take that chance with my children?
    What parent would ........... oh wait ........

    fair enough, but the point is, it's a perceived risk, that isn't backed up by evidence.

    The same it would be foolish of me to think, that a guy who admits an attraction for me, might rape me.

    Of course, depending on the person ...I might worry that...depending on the person.

    I'm not even sure you realise it Maddog, but to you paedophile is synonymous with abuser.
    It comes through in your posts.

    Do you agree with this, "a person being attracted to children doesn't mean they'll act on those thoughts"?
    And if you do agree, than why claim that there's a risk that they will act on those thoughts?

    or do you think every paedophile is a potential child abuser?

    _____
    edit.
    and to rephrase the question.
    a person thinks of killing his boss, does that mean he's instantly a potential murderer? or are there other factors involved?

    "a person being attracted to children doesn't mean they'll act on those thoughts"? Agree ........

    "do you think every paedophile is a potential child abuser?" Absolutely ........... and I'm not willing to take the chance with my children.

    So now you are saying that not only would you allow the paedophile to care for your children but that it's actually acceptable for him/her to be attracted to your children!!!

    WOW!! :eek:

    paedophilia, isn't a crime.
    and the day thoughts become a crime, I weep for society


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,162 ✭✭✭MadDog76


    Not on this thread you did not. You merely asserted one to be unacceptable, the other not, then ran.



    Everything you just said here applies to you, no one else. Hence your dodges, distortions and assert and run tactics.

    Not true .........

    So lets rephrase that bold, if a girl you're attracted to, isn't interested in you, you're a potential rapist?

    same thing, different ages, but same thing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,162 ✭✭✭MadDog76


    Clearly. That needed no clarification. What your opinion is needs no repetition. It is your basis for yours, and your issues with mine, that are utterly failing in substance however.
    Did I say that? No. I did not. Another one of your many misrepresentations of my posts. The list is getting rather long now.

    The validity of your opinion would be based on the substance you use to argue it. But you are doing no such thing. You are just throwing out a number of assertions and either not backing them up, or ad hominem dodging those that call you on them.

    You've a bit of a habit of saying something ............. then blatantly denying you've said it!!! :D

    paedophilia, isn't a crime.
    and the day thoughts become a crime, I weep for society

    When people can get jailed for watching 'pixie porn'.. I fear that day might already be here, or at least not very far off.

    None it seems. Nor would I. The difference is how we evaluate risks and I am telling you that some people simply are not risks in my opinion.

    If you have never had a friend you trust enough to know they would never harm you no matter what desires they might harbour, then you have my sympathy. Given how you conduct yourself on this thread however it is not surprising.

    But the fact is I do. I have people who I know would not harm me or mine no matter how intense the compunction. Certainly not for something as petty as satisfying a sexual desire.

    You have no one in your life of that sort, then as I said you have my sympathy, and it explains your position on the matter neatly.

    A paedophiles attractions are a petty sexual desire now ........ :eek:

    tbf, there was more to that, with previous convictions.

    Totally different thing because of the ages .......... let's not just brush over the age thing, it's quite important to this topic.

    but again.

    attraction to someone, does NOT equal attraction to raping them.. how do you not understand this?

    ___
    Honestly, I don't think sexual desires can be wrong per sae, a bit like saying, liking fatty foods is wrong.
    we can't control what we like, we can control our actions however

    So being attracted to the dogs (yes some people are) = not wrong, acting on it = wrong.

    You may not like this, but thoughts aren't wrong.

    _____
    " if a girl you're attracted to, isn't interested in you, you're a potential rapist?"
    this question is NOT different despite the ages.

    a paedohile is attracted to someone who can't be attracted back, so are they a potential abuser...if yes, you are also a potential rapists.
    If you disagree with that, what makes it so that you aren't a potential rapist???


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,162 ✭✭✭MadDog76


    Just going back to the documentary .......... the featured paedophile, James, claims he has never hurt a child and doesn't think he ever will .......... maybe that's true and maybe it isn't .......... I personally believe him when he said he has never hurt a child based on nothing but gut instinct ie. he came across quite genuine.

    However he did admit to viewing copious amounts of child porn which means, apart from it quite rightly being illegal, he is in some way responsible for the abuse of x amount of children .......... child porn is largely produced to feed paedophiles fantasises/attractions etc. so James failed to control his urges in this regard ........... who could trust him (or any paedophile) to control his urges in the future?? He certainly didn't seem to fully 100% trust himself.

    I've never been attracted to anybody who has been attracted to me!! ;)

    because It'd be far creepy if a guy came up to me to confess his attractions and then say he has thought of raping me,

    again paedophilia doesn't equal child rape.

    on the child porn, I can't comment on that. He's a paedophile who claims to struggle with it. I wonder the numbers who don't?

    cgi, has also come long ways, would you be against cgi child porn, despite no child being harmed? and proof that with normal porn, sexual crimes are lower, it would stand to reason the cgi/cartoon porn would be something they could use.
    (although even cartoon depictions is illegal in most countries...)

    More of your misrepresentations.

    I mean petty relative to other reasons someone might harm me. For example someone who is starving and their family starving might be compelled to steal from me despite their love for me.

    But relative to things like that, simply getting your rocks off is quite petty yes. And the people I speak of I firmly trust to never hurt me or mine, regardless of their sexual desires. It is just not in them to do so.

    You do not have anyone like that in your life clearly, so I can not expect you to understand.

    In your case we're not talking about "Thought Crime" as such ......... we're talking about somebody going from thinking it to actually verbalising it to you ....... to which you do not react in any meaningful way to protect your children

    attraction to children = want to rape them?
    but
    attraction to adults /=(does not equal) want to rape them?

    why does your definition of attraction change with age?

    Because the paedophile has a malfunctioning brain which could (and often has) lead to rape and abuse of children .......... also I didn't say the paedophile would definitely rape a child, I just said that I personally am not willing to take that chance with my children.

    we only have statistics of those who commit a crime.

    That's like judging all men on rapists. It's biased. (One of the major reasons I want the reactionary "burn at the stakes", anger, to change, so that hopefully, we can get some real umbers on paedophiles & risk.)

    and yes, in your posts, you assume a paedophile wants to rape a child.

    By all means tell us what parts are malfunctioning and how that malfunction affects other parts of the brain specifically, such as making them likely to harm or rape anyone.

    Also you said one has lead to the other. Substantiate this too please. Perhaps they are two entirely seperate things, neither leading to the other, but when both are present in the one brain, you have an issue.

    Which would explain why the majority of pedophiles likely are unknown, harm no one, are not a risk to anyone, and will not rape or harm a single person.
