ORIGINAL: TwoHeartsBeatOne I'm sorry. I have to disagree. I think ^^that, is a common belief, but really, it's wishful thinking. Here's a link for any who are interested in reading further about married (hetero) pedos. *link removed for format* I don't think anyone is saying a pedophile turns into a troll, deformed monster who reviles at the mere thought of any human contact... In fact, any predator NEEDS to be able to dissapear into "normal" human society in order to ply his or her trade successfully.. That means holding down a job, paying taxes, and yes, being married. But that does not mean a pedophile inwardly enjoys having relations with an adult. It's a perversion, a brain chemistry, something uncontrolable. You cannot think of a damaged person in terms of black and white, it just does not work, never will quote:
ORIGINAL: TwoHeartsBeatOne Well, consider then, the movie, "Secretary," in which an ashamed, self-loathing man matches with a self-abusing woman. They protect and heal each other through a BDSM relationship. Vanilla world would say they were both "damaged," right? Here's a link for instant, free, online streaming of The Woodsman. http://www.sockshare.com/file/7738AF5891E69A16 This, and your reference to the Woodsman, are two completely different cases. The Woodsman dealt with a man trying to come to terms with his inner deamons, and the persecutions he faced from the prejudices he met at the hands of those around him. Would he revert to his old ways on his own, or would the rest of society drive him to it, etc. The secretary, was a movie about two people missing a part of themselves, and how two damaged people could find a whole person between them. Albeit, it related to kink quote:
ORIGINAL: TwoHeartsBeatOne I've apologized and taken responsibility for the poor wording of my OP. If you read the thread from the beginning, you will see that I did so repeatedly. There are "latecomers" who are not reading from the beginning before posting, so they didn't see the revisions in the questions or how the focus was narrowed. Because it got so long, and because the questions were answered, or proven to be invalid, I was going to start a new thread with the new questions because the information made the topic evolve, but Admin did not get back to me and LilSquaw informed me that the thread can't be ended by me. Beyond that, what would you have me do? The best I can see done is not associating the two. There is no correlation at all between abnormal behavior and a healthy kink, although the two can come close. But and this is painfully clear, when the two come close, many and I mean many red flag pop up like signal flares. A lot of the things people do in kink can get you killed, no passing go, no collecting 200 dollars, straight to dead. so that lingering in the back of any rational person's mind, they come into these practices with a modicum of rationale. quote:
ORIGINAL: TwoHeartsBeatOne I think that your viewpoint on this is very common. I disagree for pragmatic reasons. First, pedophiles exist. Pedos have sexual (therefore, powerful) urges that if acted upon, destroy lives. Only some get caught. Of them, only some are jailed and only some are given treatment. So far, nothing seems to work to change them. Even the convicted ones who are on sex offender lists, are going to live most of their lives among us. What is being done now does NOT work well enough to protect children (and let's not forget the pedos family members who are affected, as well.) So, for pragmatic reasons... I want pedos to be able to speak up. I want them to be able to seek treatment. I want treatment available to them - you know, treatment that works. I want them to have a healthy and normal life and that means that others in society need to be willing to befriend them, live near them, love them, hire them, work with them... Before any of that can happen, the conversation needs to happen. So, if making kids safer means that I have to make room for a pedo to exist safely, then I will get past my revulsion and do my part to make an environment in which they can choose not to act out against children and instead, find other ways to deal with their feelings. And here I agree, if you wish to discuss pedophiles you can go right ahead. My issue is only with your conclusions, nothing more. And I have stated them all above
