"People here are already handing out leaflets. I'm just in response handing out leaflets with a different point of view."

Erm. No.

Folks here are holding natural conversations with each other here about what matters to them.

You are pretending to engage us when your primary purpose is write for an imagined audience of outsiders. This is why the natural give and take is so strained for you; because conversation is a pretext for polemic.

"But a fair amount of the discussion here is railing angrily against the injustice of society in not allowing man-girl sexual activity."

Not according to a recent content analysis by a Non. But then again she didn't have a bias in having any POV at GC become "accepted" or be "acceptable."

"When that comes up, I sometimes state a different opinion. To you, my view looks like a terrible sell-out. To much of society, it is horrible pro-pedophile propaganda. I think GC readers deserve to hear both points of view, and those any other girl-attracted pedophiles have to offer."

Yes. We are posters talking to posters ( and then only to the ones presently responding in a thread. ) You are thinking about the readers, real and imagined. And arguing that they need to hear some sort of a balanced presentation. The funny thing about spontaneous sincere conversations by real humans is the lack of addressing a balance.

"OMG. Here we've been talking about our favorite bands. Cheryl likes Emo, Bill likes Metal, Dave likes Synth-Pop and Melinda likes Folk-Rock, but nobody thought to represent Jazz or Country? How wrong of us?"

The truth is that all manner of opinions do arise spontaneously and sincerely at GC in the course of conversations by people who are here to listen and reply.

You arrived with a message to promote. And now its clear that this wasn't secondary for you, but a primary concern.

You might find that arriving with a prepared statement and never allowing yourself to get far off-message makes you a poor listener. Or maybe not.

But actually listening to others and conversing with them rather than at them isn't how PR campaigns work.

* reminded of spy-cam footage from the Michigan Republicans who infiltrated Democratic fundraisers to ask their scripted "gotcha" questions. "Did I sound natural when I asked that? I thought I sounded natural. Did it sound natural to you?" *

And again its d*mned funny to hear an "all sides need representation" argument made by you. You may think that GC readers "deserve to hear both points of view." But you believe that VirPed participants must not.

I'm reminded of the Soviet Era joke about the Russian Wolfhound praising all things Soviet to a little mutt in a dogpark in Warsaw. "But why," the mutt asks, "would you leave all THAT to come here?" " Oh," the Wolfhound replies, "I come here to bark."
