@Tfmonkey - Funny thought: I just noticed the implication there.
It may be that the best approach for preventing someone with a loli attraction, who may be considering an attempt to indulge their fantasies with real children... would be to have them spend time with real children, as a means of dispelling their fantasy notions. I wouldn't lock them in a dark closet or anything, but under supervised/public conditions, it may be the best cure... 🤔🤷🏻♂️ Familiarity may breed contempt, as they say.
@Tfmonkey - I'm brainstorming in public. Not every thought is a winner.
But I see abuse as coming in different flavors, according to motivations of the perpetrator.
This idea, or some kernel of it, may be helpful for a younger male, at a crossroads. Should he be there? Ideally, no.
Men can't sit on park benches alone in public, and maybe there are unforseen consequences to a young male raised in such isolation - idealization & fantasy run amok?
@YoMomz Again, it's almost certainly caused by the same factors that cause homosexuality, which are genetic/hormonal and often caused by being molested themselves.
You're free to imagine it's more complicated than that, but it really isn't.
I have nothing more to add to this conversation.
@Tfmonkey - I don't mean to draw your ire.
I seek solutions for a problem, and will entertain unpleasantries to find them, if need be.
The duality of life is such, that giving someone a chance to do right, also means giving them a chance to do wrong. How can that be done while minimizing harm?
Food for thought.
Or alternatively, when you're beheading offenders... Don't forget to behead their victims too.
@YoMomz That's a horrible idea. That's like taking a fat person to an all-you-can-eat buffet so that they will eat until they're sick.
Will you make them sick? Probably. Will you "cure" them of their obesity? Absolutely not.
Haven't you known people who get drunk, then during the hangover they swear they're giving up alcohol, and then they're drunk the next weekend?
