Why I hate fucking Catholic scumbags

If there is one job that would attract pedophiles/gays even more than priesthood, it would have to be the job of administrating the PPG tests.

Here's a question: Assuming homosexuality has nothing to do with pedophilia, why do you think it is that ancient Greek homosexual sex tended to be between men and boys? My guess is that in a society which has an expectation of homosexual activity, men who are otherwise inclined toward the straight end of the spectrum (the majority) would be more likely drawn to a young boy to fulfill the expectation than to a grown and manly adult. If so, that tendency might become somewhat codified into the expectation itself and lead to the identification later on of homosexual activity with pedophilia.

But sexuality does have a strong cultural element.  Greek society may have had a lot of sex acts between men and boys because it was expected. 

Fun fact: I once heard a presentation by Roy Hazelwood, who did a lot of work with the FBI in working with and classifying sexual sadists and serieal killers (the kind of stuff they do on Criminal Minds).  He mentioned that when he got started back in the 60s or 70s it was extremely rare to see an instance of anal rape - it just wasn't something people really considered, thought about, or fantasized about.  But with the increasing prevalence of porn, and hard-core porn, the incidence of violent sexual anal rapes increased dramatically.

Nah.  Administering such tests on youths (at least in Canada) has been quite definitely found to be unethical.

I hardly have a patent on the Penile Plethismograph (PPG).

Which is a shame, because there appear to be quite a few:

Just to pick 3.

I doubt very much there are any studies on the topic.  How would you study such a phenomenon?

iirc there have been such studies.  In the early days of the Human Rights code the justification for criminal background checks for people working with children was, at least in part, justified on this basis - ie pedophiles are attracted to positions where they can have unsupervised contact with children - for example boy scout leaders, teachers and priests who have sexually molested children.

I dont know of any studies linking homosexuality to a propensity for pedophilia.  I doubt it exists.  I think it more likely that pedophiles are equal opportunity abusers.  Take Clifford Olsen for example.

Don't flatter yourself, one is enough.

I found this research piece looking for the studies I told BB about. 

http://www.scribd.com/doc/20809797/M-Seto-Pedophilia-and-Sexual-Offending-Against-Children-Theory-Assessment-and-Intervention-2008

I scanned it and the sense I get is that there is no link between homosexuality and pedophilia but the piece suggests a number of other causes.

There is such a thing? For real? Isn't a boner, a boner? Can boners be quantified? Measured? Studied? Contemplated? Analysed....Anal...heh, I said anal..

Yep, it has been a standard test for detecting sexual deviancy for some time.  Basically you flash pictures and see what response you get.

If you hate fucking Catholic scumbags, maybe you should just stop doing it.

Pedophilia = homosexualia

I mean, are you seriously going to argue that being atracted to MALE boys is not gay?

[Martinus]

Pedophilia = homosexualia

I mean, are you seriously going to argue that being atracted to MALE boys is not gay?

What about people attracted to FEMALE boys?

You're a moron.

In this particular instance, I don't think Marty is the moron...

What Siegy said was not a stupidity, but a truism. While it sounds weird, it's not wrongfully used. Marty responded quite differently, placing an illogical expression as the means of counteracting Siegy's argument. If he would have used "female girls" instead, it would have been better.
