Symptoms of Pedophileophobia

Make no mistake "Pedophileophobia" is a real illness and very harmful to society.  Below is a list of its symptoms.

1) Presenting a doting and overly emotional syrupy sweet attitude towards children:  "They are the most important things in our lives.  We must protect their innocence.  They are our sweet angels." 

2) Overly hateful remarks, such as "Molesters are the lowest scum of the earth."

3) Self-empowerment phrases like. "My patience runs out when I read about ... "  "I'll come after them myself ...."  They give subjective rather than objective remarks.  Such people have feelings of inferiority and are in it for themselves.  It makes them feel superior to pretend that good and bad all comes down to their "own," but actually adopted politically correct, opinion; and they view themselves as the knight in shining armor that will avenge and protect our children.

4) Over generalizing: "We are talking about child molestation here you know."  That's as silly as saying we are talking about stealing here you know, lumping shoplifting right together with the North Hollywood bank robbery and shoot-out that occurred a few years ago.  Not being able to distinguish betweens levels of criminal behavior displays a lack of thought and actually a lack of intelligence.  Their attitude and language demonstrates the feeling that all sex offenders of children are the same.  These people always ignore or avoid talking about the particulars of any crime.  Sex offenders of children are all just "molesters" -- misdemeanor or felony, consensual or non-consensual, true love or just sexual lust is all the same to the pedophileophobe.

5) Overly exaggerating claims of harm, and the attitude that anything sexual at all between an adult and a child is just de facto traumatizing to a child, as if age alone can somehow turn an otherwise harmless act into the worst act in the world.  Such exaggerations include the continual use of loaded terms such as "hurt": "I don't see how a person can hurt a child like that," and referring to any adult sexual contact with a child as "sexual abuse," rather than inappropriate sexual behavior.

6) An unrealistic fear that their own child will be molested, or kidnapped and murdered by a crazed pedophile.  Death at the hands of a pedophile is almost certainly the rarest cause of death among children.  As far as molestation is concerned, virtually all children get molested to some extent by someone somewhere: a brother, sister, cousin, doctor, teacher, uncle or aunt and or even a parent will inevitably do something that could be called molestation.  Everyone gets molested at least a little even if done under the guise of play.  An older sister might pull her brother's pants down, or a doctor might exam a little too thoroughly, a parent will needlessly have their children run around naked, sometimes in front of strangers.  Everyone gets molested and the vast majority grow up to be completely normal.        

7) Always holding the child  blameless, or simply not believing or accepting that children often initiate the incident.

8) Referring to teenagers as children.  A person stops being a child at the age of 11 and  becomes an adolescent at the age of 12, yet most laws and people (pedophileophobes) inexplicably refer to anyone under the age of 18 as being  a child.  Anyone who is intellectually honest should find it quite understandable how any number of adults could be sexually attracted to teenagers.  Portraying such attractions as  pedophilia is not only medical wrong, but just plain silly.  Most any man, certainly up to the age of 40 or so, would give his right arm to have sex with "that" cute cheerleader at the local high school, but we pretend such thoughts don't exist and lie in public saying such desires constitute a criminal illness. 

9) Remain completely oblivious to the fact that hundreds of thousands of Americas, many of whom did very little, are methodically having their lives ruined by Megan's Law and other sex laws that don't allow citizens to live where they want.  Only in communist countries and in Nazi Germany have people ever been denied to choose where they wish to live..

10) Lastly, people who are afflicted with pedophileophobia are always completely oblivious to the fact that their own children, whom they are trying so desperately to protect, will soon grow up and be subject to these same insidious laws.  They'll be whistling a different tune when little Johnny gets thrown into prison just for having cyber-sex with an underage girl or having consensual sex with his girlfriend who happens to be 17 instead of 18.
