I know I've seen this before and I tried to just glance over it
because it's fucking PREPOSTEROUS
WHO THE FUCK THINKS THIS NEEDS TO BE MAINSTREAM
I know I've seen the coming trends on places like tumblr and twitter where CHILDREN, FUCKING CHILDREN are posting in their bios that they are MAPS- minors AGAINST FUCKING PEDOPHILES
THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE TO FUCKING PUT THAT IN THEIR BIO
Now I'm not about 'kill all pedophiles' because I've thought about it and it's NOT a satisfying punishment
I'm speaking as someone who has had a number of different types of abuse from pedophiles in my life, and they do not deserve death
I don't know what the fuck needs to be done but I am shaking with rage and no where to direct it
I want to stand on every parliament building and scream about this until im bleeding tbh
it's coming from groups who want to legitimize yheir abuse of others sadly
wait MAP doesn't even mean what i thought it means
I don't even know how to process the information on this page yet
like I understand the best way to ... deal with abusive issues is to confront it and not go to war against it because, especially in todays age, that can cause twice as much problem as ignoring it
i really dont know and i want to stick to my moral standards that i use for everything else but this is so fucking personal
honestly I'm so confused by teens calling themselves MAPs.
[ The overwhelming opinion in the professional sexual violence prevention community is that helping pedophiles by offering peer/professional support is the best way to ensure that pedophiles do not harm children, and suggest that reducing the stigma against pedophilia (the attraction) will help this endeavor and protect children.]
perhaps its because they are minors attracted to minors? or its a misunderstanding of what it means- i mean i CLEARLY just misunderstood what it meant until i actually googled it
i thought it was 'minors AGAINST pedo'
but its actually 'minor attracted person(s)
which is FUCKING BUCKWILD TO CONFUSE THE TWO
i knew it as 'minor attracted person' i just figured kids were using it as a fuck you or something when you said that
cause like. you are a teen, why you need to state you are attracted to people your own age
i know a number of teenagers are often attracted to the younger teens/tweens too
which makes me fucking nervous, but thats another can of worms
like i get being attracted to people a bit younger than you- that's normal when its a few years around your own.
and i KNOW its a difficult area when you're at a cusp age of 'legal' and 'not legal yet'
and its never going to be an easy thing because it really comes down to the older, more experienced person HAS TO MAKE THE FUCKING CHOICE to not be sexual towards someone who is still growing, i dont give a FUCK if you love them, you're teaching them something toxic
this is such a fucked up, messy topic that i can't even.. wrap my head around any of it
its so fucking intricate and normally this is where my mental capabilities FLOURISH because i love pattern seeking and understanding depth psychology but holy FUCK
maybe its because i have a big fucking wound here ??? is that how that works?
which obviously means i can't see it objectively
and i worry that i may not be able to
or if that should even matte
yeah. and it's different wth it's say, 16/17 and 17/18 in terms 'of age' or not. just. it's a huge mess
i can't, i knoe i can't, I'm...ok with that
im not sure im okay with it. i have a big 'fight for the cause' gene in me that doesn't ever let me sit still
i mean i would never EVER expect anyone else to have that
but for me personally its infuriating not just for the topic but because i want to do something about it
but im really emotionally charged here
and holy FUCK is it hard to talk to people about it
though high key considering dedicating my entire life to this cause
because i dont think ill ever be able to let this go
like i want to know what the FUCK is going on with politicians/hollywood and the sex trade industry
because that shit is FUCKING DEEP and there are cults hidden very deep in those areas
and i want to rip them to shreds
that's what i mean, I'm not objective about it and I'm ok with that
