I’m not talking about queer people getting called groomers. I know why that’s happening. I’m referring more to a more general fear of pedophilia instead of just repackaged homophobia.

I feel like I’m hearing about it like every other week. For instance, parent bloggers noticing that their engagement skyrockets when they post their kids eating hotdogs or in swimwear. Another example is an increasing trend of people on Pinterest creating walls and albums labelled “hot kids.”

I know that elite freaks are all pedos, but is pedophilia an actually growing problem among regular people? It seems to me like when suburbanites freak out about any other thing like BLM or immigrants marching through and razing their communities. Or the crime freakout in the 70s/80s.

Am I being naive and we actually need to be on high alert?

yes i watched the trailer. i assure you we’re seeing the same thing. i do not find the human body inherently sinful. i saw a baby’s penis and was just okay with it.

oh ok, why don’t you become a police officer and tell the next woman who files a police report about a random man flashing her in the street “I do not find the human body inherently sinful. You saw a penis and should just be okay with it.”. That’s really fucked up.

why don’t i become a police officer to tell the next woman who breastfeeds her child in public that she is in flagrant violation of decency laws and needs to cover herself up? You know, a thing that actually happens with some frequency?

I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to sound glib about your trauma. I’m just trying to tell you that it is by no means universal, and also a baby is not the same as an adult in that one is sexual and the other is not, and I don’t think this is that complicated of an idea.
