No worries. Didn’t want you to accidentally imply anything you didn’t mean to.

Uh huh. Have a good night.

1. Do not. The person you’re arguing with is saying a pedophile is not a rapist, never said it was fine, and you’re arguing with them.

2-3. See point 1.

4. Actually, the way we use the term Fetish colloquially is how the term Paraphelia is used in psychology. A non-con fetish is a paraphelia. The reason I used ‘non-con’ is because, like pedophelia, it can be redirected in legal forms of sexual expression.

What’s concerning is calling everything you don’t like or don’t understand concerning, and hinting that people arguing with you are pedophiles.

Again, you argued with someone who tried to point out pedophelia doesn’t make someone a rapist. You brought up the nature of a fantasy as a point of argument, which I responded to.

Your entire last paragraph is ridiculous.

I believe they were accusing you of having pedophelia, not referring to your neurodivergence.

Lots of people have non-con fetishes. Doesn’t make them rapists. Hell, who hasn’t thought about murdering someone, or robbing a bank?

Good fucking thing we don’t punish thought crimes.

Pedophelia is a paraphelia that requires treatment to manage/mitigate/overcome. Many people with pedophelia were young rape victims, themselves.

If we can all agree:

1. People don’t choose to have pedophelia, and,

2. We would like to have less people with pedophelia,

Then we can also agree there should be easy to access treatments for pedophelia.

People trying to destigmatize the paraphelia and promote access to treatment are doing a lot more to make the world better than the ones calling every pedophile a rapist, even if they never act on it.
