and you wonder why they feel like they have no where to go?

like you are going to trust a complete stranger only interested in your money to keep a secret like that?

its like going to a psychiatrist to confess a murder in their mind

Psychiatrists are professionally trained and meant to be objective but if you're hounded and told you're evil before you've even done anything for something you can't help, you'll resign yourself to that mindset. Paedophiles are not criminals until they commit a crime. By encouraging they seek treatment you can save a life instead of let them ruin someone else's

As I said- for me its same as feeling urge to kill someone. If you choose not to seek help if that happen to you, then thats on you. Yeah- its tragic we cannot control our mental health, but looking for help to get better is matter of personal responsibility

I feel you there

you can encourage them, and this assumes Psychiatry even works for them, it might very well not do jack shit. But imagine if word got out that their Psychiatrist is treating a self-declared pedo.

this is all that is running through their head, meanwhile our only response to them is "well, Psychiatry is the best we got, go talk to one and hope it works and also hope no one finds out, especially your loved ones, why you need to see a psychiatrist"

All im saying os that is their resposibility to seek help, and its true. And there are therapies for those ppl. What then is your alternative to that? Not trying to seek help in fear of your doctor breaking medical secret? If they rather not to seek help, just because they are scared of that- then thats on them and only them if they commit crime.

And there are ppl who actually seek help before they did anything wrong. There are actual programs that can help those people.

“ Redefining pedophilia with pedophile’s help “ by Tracy Clark-Flory on Salon

This article describes a group of “ minor- attracted persons “ trying to manipulate the revision of the diagnostic criteria for pedophiles as a “ motley crew” . Also describes pedophilia as a “ sexual orientation “ . This is an old article, but it shows us how long this agenda has been pushed in left wing circles.

We said this would happen with the whole sexual liberation thing but people dismissed it as a slippery slope fallacy.

Kind of assumed the next step would be legalization of polygamy. They could use the religious freedom angle.

But I guess they haven't exactly been facing much opposition so why not go for broke?

@bitels I never said they shouldn't or can't. But your original statement was "I don't get why he said 'there's nowhere to go with it'". I'm giving you a possible idea going through their head that is preventing them from seeking help. And it's gonna be hard to get them to seek help if they refuse to tell anyone for fear of backlash. It's a vicious cycle with no good solution outside of trying to drive a wedge in the public conscious between those who have the urges and those who act on them. And that is getting dangerously close to normalizing it.

@Atkins why would the legalization of polygamy come next when pedophilia was already pretty okay in religious circles. I mean, it's not pedophilia when the child is married to the rapist. There are still states that allow child brides. Then there is the problems in the church.

i saw this study long time ago

about homosexuality in countries were it was illegal

the study found that homosexuality was present in more than 2 times the usual rates in countries where is illegal than where it was not.

there were no solid conclusion other than to credit human behavior to the response of things that are illegal and imposed by an authority

so

this type of behavior is also relatable with drugs.

of course there are other factors like how addictive is a drug and social economical issues that lay heavy on drug abuse

but usually drug abuse is higher in countries where is illegal than where it isn't.

that goes for so many things

wonder if it follows for murder....

i guess theres a big % of the population that does things that are illegal because they are illegal

a big fuck you at the system

everyone does something illegal.

probably spreads to pedophilia too

most people speed

so, i am not sure how to aproach the pedophilia subject

should we do it in a understanding way?

i mean it could work to the point to lowering the pedophiles to half of the numbers they are

that or just find a way to test their blood and silently execute them

remove them from the gene pool

that assumes its genetic

more over, who we call pedophile would need to be better defined, specifically pre-pubescent attraction

wait

pedophiles are the ones atracted to prepubescent kids
