But to make it like this? And you are exactly right about the alcoholic/paedophile analogy.

There is just so much in your post that one could spend years discussing it. One point I will comment on is the comparison with alcoholics. A reasonably good analogy yes, except when a pedophile “busts” or “goes on a bender” the victim will not only be the pedophile.

Many cultures tolerate marriage at around 14 - and it was pretty much universal in pre-modern times.

Interestingly, one of the classicists I know here who’s researching this stuff says the evidence shows that the less sexist societies (eg Romans) would marry a 14-16 y.o. girl off to a 18-22 y.o man, while ancient Athens (women had no rights at all, basically) would commonly pair the 14 year old girl with a 30 year old man. She maintains the younger age at marriage across all pre-modern cultures is largely a function of life-expectancy. In terms of gender relations, what matters is the age gap.

Win at poker and end up with a 13 year old.

I see you and raise you my 13 year old daughter.

As repulsive as these people are, I honestly don’t see where the consumers of computer child porn are committing an offense. They are not the monsters violating these kids.

I have read studies suggesting the brain imaging is similiar to that seen in sociopathy, and Terje once commented he had read that chemical castration had little effect on their habits(long time ago).

Short of refining chemical castration there is no chemical solution, there is no specific target in the brain that a chemical can attack.

Mind over matter? Behavioral therapy appears to be working, but I’ll withhold a judgment on that! In other contexts though “mind over matter”(misleading dichotomy) therapies have proved rather rather successful.

There is one chemical that works really well on these people: lead.

I wonder if paedophilia in particular is like alcoholism - the only way to beat it is complete abstinence. Alcoholics struggle with their addiction every day, even when they haven’t touched a drop for 25 years.

Elvis had the hots for his future wife when he first her. She was 13.

I think our standards have changed.

Once people are desensitized to this sick shit the leftists will be giving these rock spiders the medal of freedom and running legal defense for pedophile rings in the midst of a pandemic of missing children.
