"I figure I can design something that conveys a message we can all agree on"
Good luck with that... 'gordian knot' ... 'can of worms' ... 'herding cats' ... etc. :j Hah, I don't think it'll be too hard. As I said, I think the idea that pedophiles should be acknowledged and respected, that we're not dangerous people, but rather that we have much to contribute to society as we are, is something we can all agree on. I think this particular pamphlet will probably be silent on the "contact" issue, for reasons I discussed in the original post. Granted, I'm not really interested in seeking consensus with folks like Moth (hope he's not too offended ;-)). I suggest asking for a GL Garden page after the design is done. I wouldn't want to download something like that from a site I didn't trust. Yeah, I'd definitely want to find a secure, fairly permanent place to host it, whether it be at GL Garden, ANU, Newgon, or several places. I also think it would be good to have a sort of official site for the project, where people who discover the pamphlet could offer feedback. It's worth doing, if it can be done right, and you're one person I believe can do it. Appreciate it; I definitely agree it could be a worthwhile way to reach out to the general public and have an impact in a fairly safe way, which is what we should be focused on. Probably. It could, if you wanted, point the reader to the web site where the original can be downloaded so more copies can be made (in case it gets in the hands of someone who agrees with it), and that site could link to discussions of other topics, or other pamphlets, so there's no need for one pamphlet to cover everything. Yeah, I think it'll definitely end up in the hands of people who agree with it or appreciate the message, whether they consciously consider themselves pedophiles or not. Hopefully, if this takes off, we could exponentially increase the number of people who would be involved with spreading these around. But I think just getting people at forums like here, BoyChat, VOA, boylover.net, etc. actively involved in disseminating the pamphlets would be a great start. |
