You've got to stop it somewhere. You've got to set a limit so everybody knows what is legal.
I know plenty of 15-year-olds who are capable of drinking alcohol responsibly.

Their love of methamphetamines and needle sharing propensity?

Ok,how about the fact that homosexuals live shorter lives,have more diseases,more instances of emotional problems,domestic violence,etc.
are there links to this, or is this just water cooler gossip from your local KKK chapter?

Minors do not have the LEGAL capacity to consent to sex. That is completely different from their actual desire to consent.
Yes, but again, everything has a start.

Thus, pedophillia is NOT the same as homosexuality between consenting adults with legal capacity to grant said consent.
If the APA changes this to a sexual orientation, they are given the same protection under the law! Not a thing you can do about it.
Second, if that's step one, then who are you to keep them from their rights?
Third, If those same doctors state that children are capable then what?

quote:
Little research has been done on children involved in pedophiliac relationships. Although there are many preconceptions about the nature of the “sexual abuse” occurring in these relationships, little is known about how the children involved actually feel about these sexual contacts. In this research the question of whether sexual relations with an adult can be a positive experience for a child is addressed.
quote:
Although the boys were able to point to some negative aspects of their sexual contacts, most of them reported experiencing these contacts as predominantly positive. The sexual contacts were found to have had no negative influence upon the boys' sense of general well-being, nor did the boys perceive in these contacts a misuse of authority by the adult.
So far there have been 4 people in this thread that agree with pedophilia being labeled as a sexual orientation.
BTW, I am not one of them.

However, I don't equate or even analogize homosexuality with beastiality or pedophilia, so I'm on your side in this particular point. Other than it being a sin, assuming one is a Christian or believes the Bible to be true, I am indifferent as to homosexuality.

Even if the evidence supports his position, WHO GIVES A frick!!! That doesn't prove JACK shite!!!
So, we should round up all the gays and systematically execute them for the "greater good." Not thanks, comrade. Take it back to Red Square.

At the end of the day shame and guilt are powerful forces. Just because you are a homosexual doesn't mean you have to frequent bath house or beat up your partner when you are angry. Part of the issue for homosexuals is the guilt ridden trip society puts on them. It is a recipe for shame and high risk behavior.

Yes, I agree it would be flawed. I said that the have the capacity at different ages to consent, but for purposes of the law, pedophilia must have definite terms.

quote:Agreed. Sex with children is almost always some form of rape. As to when a person develops the requisite ability to properly consent to sex such that it is no longer a form of rape, well it differs from person to person and situation to situation such that a bright-line standard has to be drawn no matter how imperfect.

I'm like 80% sure pedophilia refers to an attraction to prepubescent children. I don't know of an age of consent in the developed world low enough to cover that.

It's imperfect but the laws are multi-faceted. Someone who has sex with a 15-18 year is getting less time than some who goes for someone under 13. Clearly most, if not all, of the 13 year old out there don't have capacity.

While I agree with you 100%, that is changing within the APA.
Again, once it is an orientation, it's protect.
