Talk:paedophilia

Spelling

I really think that the proper spelling should be dominant. Once again, etymologically it is dominant, as well as with the respect to the number of regions which say it like that. User:Beta m/sig

I see that now paedophilia is spelled correctly by using only pure Latin ENGLISH/US letters. Weird stuff like Æ, Œ, Þ, Ð, etc... are used in Nordic/Viking alphabets, but not in modern ordinary English alphabet. At least someone corrected this. 91.94.249.58 17:10, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Reason why i've reverted

User:Feighnt has posted a rant, which while not anti-anarchist in any way, has nothing to do with the article. May i suggest some sort of blog to express his (i assume it's a male, since i rarely see females do this) opinions.  ~ User:Beta_M (VolodyA! V Anarhist) ^Talk 2007 December 6 14:07 _(UTC)

Neutrality

I really think that articles should be written neutral which is in this article not the case.

"While pedophiles have made great contributions to past societies, their influence is often ignored or their attraction to children is greatly played down."

First of all there is never THE pedophile, THE anarchist, and secondly if you made achievements it has nothing to do with you sexual orientation. This is the same like saying a group of humans is better or worse than the others.

"One of the dearest fantasy held in the paedophile sub-culture is that of the fantasy island - the secluded island community where paedophiles and children roam free, enjoying total sexual freedom. The idea behind this fantasy is the suggestion that away from the oppressive teachings of these organised religions, those who feel a sexual attraction towards the pre-pubescent can indulge their basest desires and, in doing so, also achieve some form of enlightenment..."

Everyone can think what he wants. And this is good. But it is also clear that pre-pubescent children are not always able to say whether they like something or not or regret later what they did, especially it it affects sexuality. This is why the age of consent exists. Off course some laws about sexuality are sometimes religious motivated, but pre-pubescent childrens should be protected. If two pre-pubescent decide to have sexual contact it is their decision, but sexuality with elder persons is diffrent.

All in all I think the article should be much more neutral. --Lin 12:47, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
