Re: But

I understand the difference. You do. Lateralus does.

Does it matter that we do when almost everyone else "out there" doesn't?

I'd much rather combat such ignorance than help to perpetuate it.

"Almost everyone" is also an overstatement, because there are millions who don't blindly accept social taboos and can look at the subject with a relatively open mind. We need to reach out to as many such people as possible.

It does for the hebephile who would sell the narrow peds for his own acceptance (the way the teleio gays sold the BLers - or the teleio lesbians sold the korephiles).

You probably should address the narrow pedophiles who are anti-contact pro-government sellouts first.

Should it matter to anyone else? I don't think so. Or at least I am aiming higher.

Fuck yes it matters unless you're aiming to get pedophiles made into a "protected group" which actually IS a sellout strategy. I don't think that is your aim so...

Here's why it matters: "pedophilia" in the broad sense is not a minority orientation as political-homosexuals describe homosexuality. Strategically it would actually be ill-advised to ghettoize ourselves rather than hammer on the hypocrisy of sexually schizophrenic "polite society." We need to punch up the cognitive dissonance as much as possible. Strong sexual attraction to "minors" is NOT rare. Admitting such attraction is - as long as so many people are such craven hypocrites and cowards on this issue.

Rendering AoCs a dead letter will benefit us all - narrow or non-narrow, exclusive or inclusive. The more we can get open-minded people to realize they are sexually attracted to "minors," the more practical means we will have to accomplish such an aim. We won't do that by buying into false dichotomies promoted in so-called polite society and even in pedo-PC. "You're either into adults or into minors" (compare to "you're either straight or gay") is simply bullshit. At least sexes have existence that goes beyond legal fiat - minor is nothing more substantive than a legal category arbitrarily created by the State.

Of course, since I personally straddle the menarche line, I guess some would say that my inclusive approach is itself selfishly motivated.

So do I. There are some girls - like the famous Sandra from Russia - I can find very sexy at any age or level of development. I actually don't think even pedophilia proper is that rare. I do think the exclusive variant is.
