... In 82% of cases (222/269), the alleged offender was a heterosexual partner of a close relative of the child.....


WHEN YOU SHARE UNTRUE IDEAS ABOUT A MUCH HARASSED GROUP BEING MORE LIKELY TO HURT KIDS AND YOU ARE NOT BASING THAT ON SCIENCE BUT ON YOUR PERSONAL ESTIMATION WHEN YOU LOOK AT A SUBSET OF CHILD ASSAULT (CATHOLIC CHURCH ASSAULT), YOU ARE MAKING IT MORE LIKELY THAT PEOPLE WHO CAN'T REASON WILL HARASS PEOPLE WHO ARE GAY AND ATTRACTED TO ADULTS (MOST GAY PEOPLE).


This forum gets thousands and thousands of views, Eliza. What you shared is dangerous. It is also untrue. Please ask the administrators to take it down when you've read the science.

Your ideas can be part of why some person out there hurts someone who is gay.

What I shared is the TRUTH. Just the facts. I did NOT share ANY untruths. I shared TRUE facts about a subject I have studies intensely. If you don't believe it, research it yourself. It is out there in spades. Because your ideas on that are WRONG. The TRUE facts related to sexual abuse should not be "taken down" and hidden! You sound cultish, nanashi!

Above, as you stated, that child sexual abuse is largely perpetrated by family members or those trusted by family members is true. Its a sick world we live in, with almost no censorship for pornography, which fuels the sick minds of those who do this. Pornography SHOULD BE OUTLAWED!

A) This isn't a theocracy like Iran and Saudi Arabia.

B) See A.

C) You have to convince people of your viewpoint in a representative democracy. You have to take into account what laws and challenges exist. IF YOU REALLY want abortions to stop, support policies that make them less likely. You're currently supporting a policy that will mean they happen still. What DOES decrease abortions? Sexual education. Poor girls and boys having access to higher education (most poor kids can't afford college, but kids who DO have academic futures in their own minds DELAY having sex). Access to contraceptives (many poor adults don't even have enough money for enough food, and that makes the most preventative contraceptives seem like luxuries). Support a social net for people. A lot of abortions happen because someone recognizes how shit the economy is and loses hope that the 'village' will help keep them and their kid alive. Stop shaming women for having babies when someone didn't give them a piece of paper and jewelry first. Recognize that since we have this system where our young are living off our personal bodies, there are going to be cases where continuing that isn't desired by the person who's being lived off of. Sometimes they're afraid. Sometimes they're desperate. Usually they're profoundly unsupported. They can't legally be forced to let someone else continue to live off of their body without that opening up the rules to including us using each other as generators.

I'm not saying it isn't upsetting.

I'm not saying you can't be passionate.

I'm saying if you actually care about this, be effective. The policies you're supporting are NOT EFFECTIVE.

LOOK AT WHAT ACTUALLY REDUCES ABORTIONS.

OUTLAWING ABORTING DOES NOT IRRADICATE ABORTING

And you shared your unmathematical and dangerous and NON-factual extrapolations from incomplete data. That's not 'just sharing the facts,' Eliza. (I'm saying this in a serious, gentle voice, not yelling at you)
