Warning for : content can be received as "sexual". Everything put in here is meant for resource purposes. And child sexual assault ofc. Be aware that this text will be triggering. .
This post is about proshippers AND pro paras (& anti recovery paras)
I looked at studies about (harmful) paraphilias & offenders about (re)offending and I can clearly say with full confidence that proshippers / anti recovery are making them "relapse".
(Not to mention most are pro para & neu rq anyways)
What mostly caused offenders to offend :
Believing they had “ consent ” of the child .
"Subscale Example Items
Children as Sexual Beings Children enjoy and want to engage in sexual activities with adults.
Children flaunt themselves in front of adults
Children are capable of seducing adults.
Entitlement One is entitled to get one's sexual needs met.
Children are ignorant about sex and need to be taught.
Children should be controlled.
Dangerous World Children are safer than adults.
You can't rely on anyone but yourself.
Children are more accepting and loving than adults.
Uncontrollability Some sexual assaults are not planned, they just happen. (?? What)
Most things in life are down to luck.
Sex can happen by accident. (??)
Nature of Harm Sexual acts between an adult and a child makes the relationship stronger
If the child loves you then having sex with them is ok.
People misinterpret acts as sexual."
"Additionally, these individuals tend to have a set of cognitive distortions and beliefs (15) usually false (i.e., rape myth), which may also contribute to their deviant behavior (14). As a result, many sex offenders do not recognize the illegal nature of their behavior, do not admit responsibility for it, or claim that the act was consensual and/or due to the victim's behavior, so the risk of recidivism is high (16). Therefore, it is imperative to carry out an adequate risk assessment, to reduce re-offenses and reintegrate the offenders into society (17)."
"Marshall, Anderson & Fernandez (1999) investigated the proposition that deficits in victim empathy were related to, or a by-product of, cognitive distortions (or offending beliefs), whereby the offender erroneously believes, for example, that sexual contact with a child is not harmful, or is even beneficial. This type of cognitive distortion would prevent an offender from realising that his actions are negative and would constitute harmful behaviour. The results from their sample of child sex offenders indicated that the greatest empathy deficits were in relation to their own victims. Their empathy deficits were also inversely correlated with their cognitive distortion responses. In other words, as their empathy scores decreased, their cognitive distortion levels increased. This further highlights the complex and interlocking cognitive products evident in child sex offenders."
Most important, what does *actually* help?
In the studies, it has been shown that avoiding that kind of media and aiming for more consensual acts with consensual adults (aka "boring sex" in their eyes) makes them desire less for possible re(offending).
"History of Cognitive-Behavioral
Therapy In a recent review (5, 6) of behavioral and cognitive behavioral approaches to sexual offenders, Laws and Marshall concluded (p. 110): It is evident from this review of the history of sexual offender treatment that cognitive behavioral procedures have developed into a comprehensive approach that is widely shared and appears to be effective. The breadth of treatment tar-gets has progressively increased and research has been implemented to evaluate the basis for these expanded targets. Theoretical and classification efforts have moved in harmony with both the expansion of treatment programs and the associated generation of research. Social learning theory approaches have been cited as important contributing factors in the development and maintenance of paraphiliac sexual interest; the importance of conditioning is emphasized over intrapsychic processes (7). Behavior therapy interventions for this population were originally derived from Pavlov’s classical conditioning (8) and Skinner’s operant conditioning (9) and used to attempt to modify sexual preferences (10). According to McGuire, Carlisle and Young (11), “The Theoretical basis for such treatment, as for all behavior therapy, is that the symptom or behavior to be treated has been learned at some time in the past and can be changed by the learning of a new pattern of behavior” (p. 185). Thus, the goal of treatment is to reduce inappropriate sexual arousal and increase appropriate arousal (12).
"Enhancing Appropriate Sexual Arousal to Adult Partners
The second component of cognitive-behavioral treat- ment with individuals with paraphilias is to assist the patient with enhancing sexual interest and arousal to adult partners or to appropriate behavior with adult partners. There are a variety of techniques, some of which will be described here.Orgasmic Reconditioning: Marquis (25) first described this procedure in which the client masturbates to orgasm while fantasizing about or watching normative sexual behavior with adults. Other clinicians later described similar techniques (26). According to Laws and Marshall (12), evidence is weak. Masturbatory satiation, previously described, is also used to replace deviant fantasy by pairing fantasies of consenting sex with peers with masturbation and ejaculation. Fading: This is a technique which helps individuals shift their sexual fantasies from atypical to acceptable (27). It aims to change sexual fantasy and arousal towards more acceptable interests. The patient is asked to fantasize about atypical sexual stimuli and then gradually fade the fantasy to one involving more acceptable sexual activity. It is also used to increase sexual interest in adults (27). Kelly (28) reviewed behavioral procedures used to try and reorient sexual preferences of child molesters. He reported that 75% of programs employed behavioral techniques to suppress deviant sexual arousal, others used procedures to enhance appropriate sexual arousal and some used both. He concluded overall that these procedures were effective."
Overall with studies :
Encouraging them into engaging with such medias (in short: being anti recovery) CAN cause them offend. After a time, fantasies will not be enough. They will desire for more.
In order to prevent assault, that person should stay away that kind of thoughts and seek for safer options.

"Oh but, ice cream cookie anon, im a profic and this does not makes sense! Its only about offenders who did in real life! Not that only, it's not fiction's fault that they do not have self control."
It's not fiction's fault. Okay. But whose fault is that for advising them to keep engaging with such content and normalising this kind of behaviour? In order to form harmful paraphilias such as pedophilia, zoophilia and necrophilia, your brain's control part have to be damaged. It's not like they lose control after they see loli. They didin't ahd that control in the start and now you're making it worse.
Still not convinced? Let's look into some basic facts.
Most adult proshippers encourage minors into sexual content.
Most known proshippers were already offenders. (For example: Shadman. He drew a real child.)
Proshippers tries to spread their agenda. However, beacuse of their sexual and disturbing nature, other people who do not wish to see thaf kind of content can be triggered or grossed.
Noone gives a shit that children proshippers labels themselves as "kodacon" which is child sexual content.
"I'm still not convinced.*
Fine..? Then..
"Several articles drew from the voices of authorities and highlighted their messages that VCSAM is a form of CSAM, signifying that this type of material can still result in harm. Several cases included messages from judicial officers. For example, in one case, while the judicial officer indicated that drawn images and anime are considered to be less serious compared with pictures of real children, it was still considered to be “of great concern”. In fact, this judicial officer highlighted the “serious risks” of this material, having the potential to “degrade and incite”. In a different case, the judicial officer highlighted the reasonable “public concern” about any type of offense in relation to possessing CSAM and that regardless of whether the children were real or anime, protecting children is of “paramount importance” in society. Another judicial officer highlighted those individuals accessing this material “creates a market” and that this material can still involve the suffering and degradation of children. Another case drew from the voice of law enforcement, with VCSAM charges serving as “a reminder” to society that cartoon/animated images are illegal and can result in serious charges.
"The point of escalation in offending was also highlighted across a diverse group throughout the articles. For example, in one article, the director of a child sexual abuse survivor support center voiced the “very real” link between pursuing sexual abuse after viewing such images, irrespective of images being cartoons or involving real victims, arguing the sexualization process is alike. A prosecutor in a different case indicated that sexual offending might be spurred on by the normalization of the cartoon material and through the ability to use it to groom children. In a different case, in which the offender had over 30,000 images, and over 600 videos, all computer-generated or cartoon/anime files, the offender himself said that he was concerned about the effect the material had on him, and he could see himself engaging in worse offending as a result, including perpetrating similar offenses on children."

I would write more but I felt lazy. Ok bye
🍦🍪
This is an amazingly impressive essay anon, if everyone can, please reason
