Age of Consent?
The latest tactic of progressives/LGBT activists is to lower the age of consent for sex, thus giving adults more access to younger boys and girls. Along with schooling to detail anal sex ,etc. to youngsters (Montana), classes to tell them they aren’t necessarily of any gender and must be nice to everyone no matter how they “identify” themselves ( Fairfax County Virginia) your child will be exposed to PC sex education which says everything is good, normal and OK. They can get a morning after pill at 12, an abortion without parental consent at 14.Lowering the age of consent will further strip parents of the right to educate, discipline, and instruct their children in how to live a good, productive and yes, moral life. What is age of consent? Our version of the law stems from English law.in 1275 it became illegal to “ravish” a maiden under 12 (marriage was common at that age.) in 1576 the law was expanded to include a felony for carnal knowledge of a woman child under ten. The intent was to keep girls safe until marriage. These general definitions were accepted in the colonies as well. The so-enlightened European countries followed through with similar laws in the 1800’s. http://chnm.gmu.edu/cyh/teaching-modules/230 The notion that children under legal age cannot make an informed decision about sexual activity is expanded to all children today in the US. Laws protect children from sexual abuse. The penalties for having sex with children under 12 usually (but the age can vary a bit) carry heavier penalties than having sex with teenagers. Age of consent varies from 16-18 depending on the state. Why so high? To try and prevent child prostitution. (19th century) and to keep it fairly high as a consequence of immaturity about sexual matters could lead to pregnancy (1930’s.) it was the feminists in the 1970’s-1990’s who got the laws changed to gender neutral language which did therefore also protect boys. The groups behind lowering age of consent are those such as NAMBLA (they want age of consent laws removed entirely) " David Thorstad, a spokesman for the homosexual rights movement and NAMBLA, clearly states the objectives: 'The ultimate goal of the gay liberation movement is the achievement of sexual freedom for all - not just equal rights for 'lesbians and gay men, but also freedom of sexual expression for young people and children." This goal has not changed since it was articulated in 1972. Sometimes officials in various countries http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2569570/Patricia-Hewitt-breaks-silence-groups-links-National-Council-Civil-Liberties-boss.html Enrique T. Rueda, The Homosexual Network (Old Greenwhich, Connecticut: The Devin Adair Company, 1982), p. 201 They are openly supported by most LGBT rights groups…even if they hide that fact. Cover is given by such above board groups as the Evelyn and Walter Haas Jr Fund, a philanthropic group which gives money for gay marriage and gay and lesbian issues, and academics such as Robert Lackey, a top writer in the field of LGBT issues and a college teacher. He is the president of Egale. A homosexual rights group. http://egale.ca/ Some of his writings include; Euthanasia laws, polygamy, not raising the age of consent , and various LBGT issues. http://www.narth.org/docs/lowered.html http://www.theglobeandmail.com/globe-debate/ottawa-must-now-draft-a-suicide-law-it-should-look-to-quebec/article22829318/ When it comes to pedophilia, the progressives have used an old tactic. Change the language, control the conversation. It is asserted that pedophiles are not child molesters. That they simply have an inborn desire to have a child as a love and sex partner. That most pedophiles abuse girls and are in fact straight. That no harm comes to a child involved with---are you ready for it? Intergenerational sex. Pedophilia..love of children, meaning sexual love, is still listed as a mental disorder. Factually, a child is of no interest to a pedophile after a certain age. Unlike other types of relationships, there is no possibility of it enduring (one could argue gay and straight adults are not doing much better, but they are adults.) The child is in fact a sex toy, an OBJECT of desire and not a person. There is NO “relationship.” There is only predatory behavior. Likewise, child porn DOES victimize a child who is used by an adult to make money. They do not have a choice. As the psychiatric associations have willingly thrown in the towel on homosexuality and transsexualism (a body dysmorphia) they will probably list pedophilia as an orientation (discounting decades of evidence that child molesters have usually been abused, nurture not nature.) The idea is to bring the behavior into the light so more effective treatment can be sought. Pedophiles want the right to work where they please, which would include working with children. As no one knows a man is a pedophile unless he breaks the law, I fail to see how it is relevant to the issue. Any sexual contact with a child (up to the age of consent, not just younger children) is a crime. We know (from those busy researchers and psychiatrists who have spent decades surveying, discussing and publishing reports on every aspect of human behavior) that children make attachments in a particular order. First mom, then dad becomes a focus at about age 3, then other children (friendships) and then attempts to form romantic attachments. It’s part of growing up. Along the way, they do show sexual behaviors, such as masturbation and curiosity about their own bodies and the bodies of others. Most parents are perfectly capable of keeping calm and reminding the child that is only for their own private time, not in public, There are horror stories of parents who threaten to cut a boy’s penis off, or of punishing children physically or verbally, but that is not the norm ( though in my mind just as abusive.) The fact that the nerves, etc. are in place, that a child will act out or can be enticed to act in sexual ways, does not mean they are ready to have sex. Period. Not physically, not mentally, not emotionally. They are growing and learning. There is nothing to suggest that, in any way, they can give consent. I need to say something right now….to any of you who suffered abuse as a child. It was not your fault, and even if the aggressor made it feel ok, that does not make you guilty. Responses are based in biology. Even if you didn’t understand that, you did not “ask for it.” Until now, parents have been the authorities as to what happens to their child’s bodies. The onslaught on age of consent would further erode any parental control, protection, or guidance. It’s a guaranteed way to have the government (already way too busy using CPS and the like to harass perfectly adequate parents) control our children as wards of the state. When I was involved in a sex abuse case and learning all I could to help the victim, I will never forget what a police officer, a detective, said to me. He said it’s not a surprise more parents don’t figure it out…molesters are predators. They are very good at blending in, hiding, and making things appear normal. They are also very good at making the child feel it is all their fault. At the time, pedophiles were listed in a different way than they are today. They could be Primary pedophiles, only capable of sexual arousal with children Secondary pedophiles, who did have adult relationships but would act out with a child given an opportunity. Add in the term incest, such a common form of abuse, and you have neatly summed up the whole picture. Men who will have sex with a child given any opportunity at all. To boot, these men are good at seducing and terrorizing a child, who without the strength or logic to stop them, do fall for their tactics. They are manipulative, not just of the child, but of any person in the way of their objective. They give presents, they physically abuse, they tell you mom or dad said it was ok or won’t believe you, or even that they will kill them. Adults fail to protect themselves in abusive relationships; how do you expect a child to cope? To give you more of the lingo, the changed language to provide cover to what is really quite evil, so that you are prepared to argue via ballot box or protests,,,,, I’m going to run the references at the end of this section as it will interrupt the flow so much I am not sure the meaning will come through. A pedophile is usually a heterosexual male with an interest in girls. There are some who are not particular; either sex will do. Homosexuals claim that, therefore, this is a straight problem not a gay problem. A pederast is a homosexual male with an interest in boys. Usually this is with adolescent males. A child molester is someone who aggressively or forcibly sexually abuses a child (note the careful wording there) The group Virtuous Pedophiles claims its members are celibate. Note the careful wording, once again. Celibate not virginal? So they have had sex with children in the past? Or are they comparing themselves to Catholic priests who take a vow of celibacy? The virtuous pedophiles are restraining themselves from breaking the law, not breaking a religious vow. If they change the law, they can have the relationships they want. How about the flip side? What do therapists/doctors/ police officers say about the results of abuse? Abused children do not grow socially, may even stop growing physically. They range of effects is devastating.(from the Guardian site listed below) From the Jim Hopper website listed below… “First, I want to recommend a paper by David Lisak, Ph.D. This paper contains many powerful quotations from interviews with male survivors of sexual abuse. Lisak groups the quotations into themes, and discusses them with remarkable insight and compassion. The themes are:
Finally, some clinicians have noted that sexually abused males often experience confusion and distress about their sexuality:
From the Emasco website listed below. “How prevalent is child molestation among homosexuals? · The Gay Report, published by homosexual researchers Jay and Young in 1979, revealed that 73 percent of homosexuals surveyed had at some time had sex with boys 16 to 19 years of age or younger.5 (5. K. Jay and A. Young, The Gay Report (New York: Summit Books, 1979), p. 275. ) · Although homosexuals account for less than two percent of the population. they constitute about a third of child molesters.6 (6. K. Freund and R.I. Watson, "The Proportions of Heterosexual and Homosexual Pedophiles Among Sex Offenders Against Children: An Exploratory Study," Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy 18 (Spring 1992): 3443, cited in "The Problem of Pedophilia," op. cit. Also, K. Freund and R.I. Watson, "Pedophilia and Heterosexuality vs. Homosexuality," Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy 10 (Fall 1984): 197, cited in NARTH Fact Sheet. ) Further, as noted by the Encino, Calif.-based National Association for research and Therapy of Homosexuality (NARTH), "since homosexual pedophiles victimize far more children than do heterosexual pedophiles, it is estimated that approximately 80 percent or pedophile victims are boys who have been molested by adultmales.7 (7. Thomas Schmidt, Straight and Narrow? Compassion and Clarity in the Homosexuality Debate (Downers Grove, IU.: Intervarsity Press), p. 114, cited in "The Problem of Pedophilia, op. cit., p. 2. ) · A nationwide investigation of child molestation in the Boy Scouts from 1971 to 1991 revealed that more than 2,000 boys reported molestations by adult Scout leaders. (Note: The Scouts, who have 150,000 Scoutmasters and assistant Scoutmasters, ban hundreds of men each year from scouting out of concern that they might abuse boys.)8 (8. Patrick Boyle, Scout's Honor (Rocklin, Calif.: Prima Publishing, 1994), p. 3l6. ) · A study of Canadian pedophiles has shown that 30 percent of those studied admitted to having engaged In homosexual acts as adults, and 91 percent of the molesters of non-familial boys admitted to no lifetime sexual contact other than homosexual.9 (9. W. L. Marshall, et al., "Early onset and deviant sexuality in child molesters," Journal of interpersonal Violence 6 (1991): 323-336, cited in "Pedophilia: The Part of Homosexuality They Don't Want You to see," Colorado for Family Values Report, Vol. 14, March 1994. ) · Judith A. Reisman, Ph.D., and Charles B. Johnson, Ph.D., conducted a content study of the personal ads in the Advocate, the national gay and lesbian newsmagazine and discovered that "chickens," a common term for underage boys sought for sex, were widely solicited. Many of the advertisements in the magazine solicited boys and teens from within a larger pool of prostitution ads.10 (10. Judith A. Reisman, Ph.D., "A Content Analysis of 'The Advocate,"' unpublished manuscript p. 18, quoted in "Pedophilia: The Part of Homosexuality They Don't Want You to See," ibid. ) The authors also note a statement from a book review by homosexual activist Larry Kramer that the work, "like much canonized male homosexual literature, involves sexually predatory white men on the prowl for dark-skinned boys to gratify them.11 (11. From "Lany Kramer's Reading List," The Advocate, January 24, 1995, p. 99, cited in "Status Report," The Reisman & Johnson Report of Partner Solicitation Characteristics as a Reflection of More Sexual Orientation and the Threat to Children, First Principles Press, January l995.) In a 1985 study of the rates of molestation among homosexual pederasts compared to heterosexu1 pedophiles, Dr. Paul Cameron found the following:
If you can show me the difference in a heterosexual forcing a girl to comply with sexual demands and a pederast forcing a boy to complete sexual acts..well you can’t. We have years of research to prove children ARE harmed by sexual molestation, whether it is forced or not. We know that those who go on to abuse children, whether they consider themselves pedophiles or not, were usually abused. We know that many homosexual men will admit to having been sexually abused often at young ages. We seem to wink at teenage girls seeking relationships with older men, but it is just as predatory, just as harmful. Russia and India are both raising the age of consent to eighteen, probably to stem the tide of underage prostitution, but also logical from a legal standpoint as they can enter in to other contracts at that age. What do these countries..which we consider backwards, in many cases, know that we do not? To continue to broaden the obvious harm done to previous generations by making it easier for those who want to continue the pattern; by reducing the age of consent, would be a societal travesty never mind a personal moral tragedy, case by case. You cannot make evil good by whitewashing it in a coat of government sanction. If these trends continue, I urge parents to seek a way to homeschool their children. To not let their guard down around any potential predator..even your best friend.to teach your children from infancy up what is permissible touch from an adult and what is not. To keep the channels of communication open so they CAN talk to you if they are uncomfortable about any person. To teach them how to control themselves sexually, as you do in every other area of life. And for those who are so inclined, pray… Pray for that hedge of protection around your child, every day. http://www.Celibatepedos.blogspot.com http://www.theguardian.com/society/2013/jan/03/paedophilia-bringing-dark-desires-light "one in five of all adult men are, to some degree, capable of being sexually aroused by children". http://www.wnd.com/2013/07/gay-laws-set-stage-for-pedophilia-rights/ http://yellodyno.com/Statistics/statistics_child_molester.html http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=10&ved=0CFoQFjAJahUKEwichp32v5TGAhXLMowKHZRpADA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.health.harvard.edu%2Fnewsletter_article%2Fpessimism-about-pedophilia&ei=vDyAVZy4LsvlsASU04GAAw&usg=AFQjCNEP7Df5jU471EJ2pwg5A6Z_3_pDzA&bvm=bv.96041959,d.cWc&cad=rja http://www.straitalk.info/stfbaswm.html https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Oscar_Wilde http://www.emaso.com/links/extra/frightening_gay_statistics/frightening_gay_statistics.htm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexual_agenda#CITEREFKirkMadsen1989 http://www.nasponline.org/educators/sexualabuse.pdf http://www.jimhopper.com/abstats/ http://www.jimhopper.com/male-ab/ http://www.jimhopper.com/pdfs/Lisak_%281994%29_Male_Survivor_Interviews.pdf http://www.theguardian.com/science/2012/feb/13/childhood-abuse-growth-brain-emotions http://thefederalist.com/2014/07/21/why-arent-there-more-gay-people/ |
