Things involving children, no consent, animals, etc is abuse. It is not harmful to be attracted to these things; it is harmful to physically participate in said para. No this does not include rp or fiction. This is about actual harm.

On another but not completely different note.

this also isn't anything to do with being "queer" or gender identity, at all. i see people going out of their way to act like there weren't several adult trans women on that callout talking about assaulting toddlers, and they aren't better than ezra, the trans man posting equally disgusting comments, or any other of the nasty adults, cis or trans or non-binary or what have you, and it has nothing to do with anyone's gender. gender identity doesn't make you have paraphilic disorders, nor does any specific sexual orientation, but none of them exclude you from having one, either. there is no link between these things. the "radqueer" movement is just people who are specifically not cishet who engage in this behavior, and cishet people very much do as well.

but this is a disturbing, horrible scenario. these people were encouraged to engage in "kink" (which, this is not even close to kink, this is rape/crime) in the name of being free and uncensored or liberated. this is going to be a fucking nightmare if it makes the news. if broader, people are arrested and this is sensationalized, the "radqueer" movement has endangered every lgbt person because people were too fucking scared to call out another gay or trans person for being obviously horrible (with slight plausible deniability) lest they be crucified on the internet. well, what will you do when this kind of thing is shown as proof that lgbt people need to go to permanent psychiatric "care" like ron desantis said?

i don't care. i think maybe it is time to gatekeep who stays in a community or not. we kick nazis out, the broader lgbt community shuns radfems, i think we should keep "radqueers" out of the lgbt community because they aren't radical, they need therapy and medication that they're refusing to get and not only does that make the lgbt community look bad, but those of us with mental health disorders who do get treatment to prevent things far less damaging than going out an molesting children or animals. not having access isn't an excuse, go get medicaid or something if you're in the usa, or do the right thing and throw your electronic devices out. read books or something and keep away from anyone you might victimize. if you can't do that, then you definitely need to be seeing a therapist. i don't even care if that's harsh. you don't get to hurt children.

Mental health matters until your a paraphile or hyper sexual person who cries every night out of self hatred and fear of your intrusive thoughts of doing horrible things for pleasure, mental health matters until you relapse because your scars are fading and the idea that surface cuts isn't enough is engrained into your mind, mental health matters until you call your best friend sobbing and asking if they hate you for no reason other then that they texted different then normal or the weathers just fucking cold.

Whether it's the person we were talking to last night who was lamenting her favorite teacher losing his job because she didn't think unwanted non-sexual physical contact was a big deal. Or when I was a preschool teacher and had to tell other staff members that no means no, even when it's "just a hug".
