I just found a site that lists the age of consent for everywhere in the world. It can be as low as 12 and as high as 21. So he could have bonked that 13 year old in Mexico or Holland and been legal. Even in the USA a few states have it at 14. It is the picture taking that is getting them into trouble. Not the sex.

I am happy to accept that paedophilia is an "incurable" desire, just as the rest of us have little control over our sexuality (there, is no 'cure' for being gay, for example) but the fact that this sexual preference causes long lasting damage to children who have not willingly consented, means I honestly feel that paedophiles should be 'put down' like a sick animal.


This is not about revenge, torture or even punishment - if anything it is to release these terminally ILL people from the torment of their own lives, as well as to protect our children from harm.

My friend in Texas is on a lot of heavy duty drugs due to flaskbacks of things her father did to her when she was 9. She is 37 now and can not keep it blocked anymore without help. I do not think drugs help, but there are no victim help groups where she is.

Rehabilitation does not work for those sick fucks that prey on children. When they are caught they need to be taken out of the gene pool.

The man in the attached article is a paedophile who used his occupation to further his perversions. He was in a position of trust and by virtue of his craft was allowed to free reign with children. Sometimes the only concrete proof is pictures that enable a charge to stick, but there are times that words alone by children have been enough to garner enough to charge these creeps.

The teacher in my kids school had no pics......just the words for a few brave young girls who told the truth.
Pictures are undeniable proof....and as for age of consent, most paedophiles do not adhere to that statute. They go for the age that feeds their so called natural needs, whether it is a 2 year old or a 14 year old. Age has nothing to do with it if a child tells that he/she has been forced or coherced into doing something sexual that they don't want to do. It is called sexual assault......not bonking.

Did you know that at least ten percent of child sex abusers are women. It is so taboo to our culture that noone wishes to acknowledge this fact.

I saw a woman child sex abuser being interviewed and she presented her situation as a medical condition that she had no control over very lucidly.

Vigil,

No, I did not. Interesting how this subject does not yet admit easily of a debate on the distaff side.

I will acknowledge it Vigil....

In fact over the past 10 years there has been a great increase in the number of complaints made against women.
There are also up to five internet sites devoted to woman/child love. The North American Man Boy Love Association now has a female auxiliary branch that is growing in leaps and bounds.

It used to be thought that female paedophiles were more likely subordinates who worked hand in hand with their male partners to aid them in acquiring children. In writing this I can think of four cases off the top of my head that supports this but I am very sure that there are women who are just as perverse and vile as male offenders.

I think that the spirit of this thread was created and nurtured about males only because the article was speaking of a male.

Just yesterday here, a teacher was found guilty and will most likely go to prison for 15 years for having a slumber party and sex with her male students. The one she was convicted for abusing was 15. I'd have tore her ass to shreds if I were the boy's mother no differently if she were a male.

I can understand why countries have different ages of consent. Some recognise the point of sexual maturity and some psychological maturity and some fudge the two.

I have grown up in a country where it is normal for 16 year olds to have sex which must seem as odd to those who are used to this being a criminal act as the Netherlands being used to 14 year olds having sex is to me. So, if a 14 year old Dutch girl had sex with a 17 year old American boy, it would be the girl who was the criminal. Bizarre isn’t it?

So you have the situation where someone may get 15 years in the States for making many 15 year old boys fantasies come true and in the UK we have only sent a completely sick bastard down for seven.

It is also of interest to me that we are sexually prejudiced - well I will admit that I am. A fifteen year old boy I presume to be a lucky sod for having a 30 something woman, whilst a thirty something man having sex with a fifteen year old girl would exact a very different response from me.
