Exactly. I’m all for studying them to better understand how to keep them from hurting kids. But, call them what they are—pedophiles. Call their condition what it is—a paraphiliac perversion that harms children. Stop tip-toeing around with these euphemisms.

Furthermore, “the freedom to study uncomfortable topics” is not what these people actually want. They’re out here on every platform going on about “MAP pride” and how they really aren’t that bad. These bastards are going to try to use this as a bridge to push those harmful messages and drag us along.

Exactly. The not-so-hidden agenda is the normalization of pedophilia, much the same way as violent and degenerate sexual proclivities have been normalized with prohibitions on 'kink-shaming', and sexual exploitation of women is normalized as 'sex work is work'.

1000% agree.

“We aren’t trying to normalize pedophilia. We just want you to refer to it by another name because calling it that is so alienating and offensive. Please ignore the army of pedophiles publicly stating that this is an attempt to normalize pedophilia.”

Just posted a comment about euphemisms before I saw yours. I agree and I'm disturbed that there seems to actually be some modicum of support for "MAP awareness" this time around.
