Horrible Accusations

I presumed you understood I consider it a law enforcement subject because the judicial system works in tandem with mental health professionals who DO use the word in the reports they submit to them.

Since "Pedophilia" is demonstrably not a law enforcement subject, I made no such assumption.

And as "Child Molestation" and "Sex Offender" are the province of law enforcement; and have an entirely different ( and non-overlapping ) criteria, I expected you to be able to parse the two.

Your linking of them due to the courts use of "experts" doesn't make the differing disciplines and their disparate criteria into one subject. So you still evade my questions about which criteria you were using in your blanket phrase "law enforcement psychiatry."

Since you admit that "Pedophilia" won't be found in any criminal code, maybe you can admit that conflating it as a law enforcement term is an unfounded opinion, rather than a factual assertion.

I've done my citing. Why can't you?

If people paint 'MAA' as pedophile, they're idiots, and not all the terrorists are idiots. Furthermore, if they are attempting to smear the individual, MAA, unlike 'girllover' and 'pedosexual' looks technical and not a weasel term at all. Of course, I know many terrorists do see it as a weasel term, and that is unfortunate and I hope they don't confuse weasels with people who legitimately mean it to be what it is.

If you can admit that our enemies see "MAA" as a weasel word for "Pedophile," then why advise anyone to use it understanding the potential consequences? It doesn't take all the anti's abusing the language, all it takes are the ones who are engaged in terroristic campaigns.

...join the fight against pedophilia! absolutezerounited.( don't go here)blogspot.com ... MAA, Boylover, girllover) They all essentially have the same undertones...

I pulled these off the search engines results-page by using the search terms "MAA" in conjunction with the names of known cyber-terrorist organizations. I won't be daft enough to go to the pages listed within the search results.

All I need to know is that those enemies whose actions have harmed Peds just for being Peds are targeting MAAs and GLers as if the terms are interchangeable. Quite frankly, I agree with them that the terms are interchangeable; and that all of the above deserve to be left-alone to love differently as they were made to.

I do not seek to limit ideas and vocabulary. This is a horrible thing you have accused me of. I have never sought to censor an idea, nor remove the use of a word.

Geeze, go back a few posts.

Do you remember saying this? Liking prepubescent girls doesn't make you a pedophile, preferring them does. Stop using that word for guys who just happen to ALSO like them and not have some ageist focus on them.

How about this? Pedophile is a word that has been used in psychology, a science which is used in conjunction with legap precedings. If you disagree with them using that word that is totally fine... but don't just start using it to 'take it back'. Get them to stop using it BEFORE you start using it, okay?

"Stop using that word," You're correct it is a horrible thing I have accused you of. I believe that I have adequately demonstrated by reference to Linguistic Authorities, Psychological Authorities and Law Enforcement Authorities that your reductio ad absurdum of language and ideas is unmerited. I agree that it is horrible. But I think its you who owe the apology.
