that's why they're working around the clock to flood her tag with rape fantasies disguised as faux positivity. they have no friends offline they can hang out with & no friends online who can witness their obsessive behavior and tell them, gently, that they need to disengage.

for all they claim to care about their sisters, all they REALLY care about is clinging to whatever pathetic scraps of control they can wrest from women who are younger and less experienced than they are.

that's what this entire "movement" is about: a group of adult women who are so desperate to feel relevant and powerful that they've tethered their sense of self-worth to a collective rape fantasy. and all while masquerading as activists!

i think this is the last thing i'll say on the subject. what i've posted so far more or less sums up my feelings on the matter, and my posts will remain in this tag as a reminder of what ISFF supported.

i have family, friends, and coworkers who deserve my attention far more than this motley collection of groomers.

like, first and foremost: pedophiles are a danger to children and they need to either seek help or be forcibly prevented from interacting with children. if you disagree, you are in favor of creating an unsafe environment for trans girls and other children.

second: even if you're just joking, even if it's just a "harmless" fetish... why the fuck are you so obsessed with depriving women of their ability to consent? why can't your message to trans women be "it's okay to be a girl, i will always be here to talk if you need to talk"? why do you have to be so fucking WEIRD about it?

given the fact that most of these accounts were posting every 5 minutes yesterday, i can only assume that i'm dealing with a small but mighty group of unemployed women whose time would be better spent browsing indeed.

"pedophile" is a word that has more than one meaning. people use the word "pedophile" colloquially to describe offenders and non-offenders alike. there is no "correct" definition of pedophilia because it is a word that has multiple similar, but discrete meanings.

the distinction between "pedophile" and "person with pedophilic disorder" is not a useful one, because it relies on the assumption that pedophilia (and paraphilia more broadly) is a coherent medical diagnosis that exists independent of its sociocultural context, which is vapid. sexual desire is a product of your upbringing, environment, and lifestyle choices; it is not a biological fact.

pedophiles are adults, and all adults have power over children. furthermore, pedophiles have an incentive to abuse their power that other adults do not have. pedophilia is not the sole incentive for child sexual abuse, but it is frankly asinine to pretend that it isn't an incentive for abuse at all.

there is no such thing as a thought crime because there is no such thing as mind-reading. once you post it to your blog, especially if your blog is visible to children, you have officially turned your thought into an action that can cause material harm.
