This is more of a 2 part question. Should child porn that does not include a real child be illegal? If so, who is being harmed by it?
The other question is; does giving a pedophile access to “imitation” children give them an outlet for their desire, so they won’t try to engage with real children, or does it just reinforce their desire, thus helping them to rationalize their behavior and lead to them being more encouraged to harm real children?
I’ve heard psychologists discuss both sides, but I don’t think we have any real life studies to go off of because the technology is so new.
I’m just curious what the other thought out there are from people who are more liberty minded.
…cried the guy who contines long past his announcement that it is indeed the end of the dicussion.
Because, once an addict always an addict, right? ALl those beautiful words you say, they need to be re-read, the flow of adrenaline has to continue, long past the logic has left the room, right?
Would that be all?
You’re right here with me, though… Don’t fall on your sword as you go for yet another ad hominem.
At this point, I’m just trying to leave you with some thoughts, hoping some of them sink in and make you a better debater.
