My personal bias (an open letter)

I'm not interested in having sex with kids (teens are a different matter, though I wouldn't do anything illegal). I am, however, interested in public opinion of sex with kids. Because when people are so scared of sex with kids that they don't allow kids to act sexy, or for adults to admit that they're sexy, that's a problem for me. It's the slippery slope that everybody talks about and many people try to discredit - it's not going to happen, it's already happened. If you're up in arms about a little girl wearing a miniskirt because there's another little girl somewhere else who is being sexually abused, you're overreacting. When you start attacking freedom - personal freedom of expression, and the right that every person should have to engage in consensual pleasure-seeking activities - instead of the harm that's actually being done to children, I get mad. When you say that no kids are allowed to have anything to do with sex because some kids are hurt by it, that's an infringement on basic civil liberties. When you start moralizing against my opinion that little girls can be sexually attractive, and discriminating against me for it, because of your opinion (and it is just that, an opinion) that kids ought not to be seen in that way, let alone to engage in sexy activities, for the sake of preserving their imaginary "innocence", or whatever you want to call it, I'm gonna start fighting back. When you slander me as a criminal even though I've never broken the law, when you call me a predator even though the last thing I'd want to do (even at the cost of self-sacrifice) would be to intentionally harm another human being, let alone a child - especially a girl whose happiness brightens my own life - you're revealing your own deficiencies, not mine. I am not responsible for the harm that some children have to endure, and I will not sacrifice my and my fellow brothers and sisters' freedoms to ease your conscience. Truth, freedom, justice - and happiness. These are my personal biases, and I am not ashamed to have them.
