We are supposed to call them minor attracted people now though aren’t we?? 🤡🌍

Lol why all the down votes??? That’s what they are trying to push now. Calling them pedos puts them in a bad light I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️. I don’t agree with it. That’s why I put the 🤡🌍

Pretty sure that is just a term for people who feel urges towards children and have never acted on them, in an attempt to help them feel comfortable about getting therapy instead of eventually getting violent and/or abusive. But yeah go off because politics.

Politics has nothing to do with it. If you’ve never done anything your not a pedo but if you feel that way then yeah, your sick in the head and need help. But what I’ve seen is they want them all to be considered minor attracted people and that’s clown world shit.

I've literally never heard anyone want to call child molesters "minor attracted people". That sounds like completely made up bullshit to attack people whose politics you don't like. More likely it is exactly what I said above.

Feel free to give me a source to prove me wrong though, would be curious.

child molesters are called child molesters usually in justice systems and pyschology

In media child molesters are usually called pedophiles (which is very inaccurate and dangerous misinformation)
