Welcome, but please stop if you are looking for support for having sexual relations with children.  This is NOT a pro-pedophile site.  Adults having sexual relations with children is dead wrong. 

Actual sexual relations by adults with children is very wrong and wrong for a number of reasons: 1) It distorts the child's view of sex and what it's about.  2) It deprives children the enjoyment of having their first sexual encounters with members of their own generation as they mature.  3) It may fill the child with feelings of guilt.  4) It is also grossly unhealthy even for the adult because it hampers developing normal relations with other adults.  It is a lose-lose situation for all concerned, and nothing contained in this site is meant to condone overt sexual conduct of adults with children.

A phobia is an irrational, or out of proportion fear.  Thus, the term "pedophileophobia" is meant to indicate a fear that is out of proportion to the threat, not that there is nothing to fear.  While it is certainly true that children are sexually abused and traumatized, sexual abuse of children is not the problem it has been made to be.  For every child who is sexually abused, there are 7 who are non-sexually abused; often by whippings with belts, cigarette burns, neglect, starvation, and intense verbal abuse.  For every 1 child who is killed by a pedophile, 50 are murdered by their own parents through non-sexual abuse (about 2,000 per year)!  Why isn't there all this same clamor over that?  It's because of a fanatical hysteria about any crime that has "sex" attached to it.  Many acts regarded as  sexual abuse, or so called sexual abuse, can be nothing more than a pat (anywhere), just answering a question about sex, or just anything at all that may have even the slightest sexual overtone.  That clearly indicates a phobia, is hysterical, and is what this site is about.  

The reality is that things have gone way too far under the pretext of helping children, and America has become a raging pedophileophobic hysterical insane asylum, resulting in the ruination of adults lives on a daily basis by false or exaggerated allegations of child sexual molestation, oversensitivity as to what constitutes molestation, and exaggerated claims of harm.  Now, approximately 1 percent of all adult males in the United States are on sex offender registries, all with ruined lives.  Many of these individuals are honorable people who just did something minor or foolish.       

The current overly hostile climate toward sex crimes has been mainly due to a hand-full of high profile cases where the child victim was murdered -- not because of an increase in inappropriate adult-child sexual interaction.   The anger and hatred generated by those few crimes are being vented upon any and all who have the misfortune of being convicted of any sex crime, regardless of how minor it may have been.   

Ironically, the root cause of all this, death at the hands of a pedophile, is one of the most rare causes of death of children -- less than being killed by lightening.  To put things in perspective, about 30 or so children are killed by lightening every year in the U.S.  Furthermore, over 2,000 children die at the hands of their own parents, over 2,000 children lose their lives due to drunk drivers, and over 3,000 lose their lives due to firearms.  Yet, we do not see drunk drivers having to endure life-long registration or being beaten to death in prisons; nor do we see owners of firearms having such ownership disseminated to neighbors, so children can be warned to not go in or near such households.

No one ever holds the child or adolescent accountable, even though it may very well have been the so called victim that purposefully initiated and persistently encouraged the incident  This is an absolute fact that many don't want to admit.  Many adolescents and even children can be very forceful in getting adults to engage in sexual acts, and it is actually the adult who is the victim, but still must pay the price of a ruined life.  For instance there was a boy who targeted his attractive female teacher tying to seduce her and eventually enticed her into having sex with him.  The boy even later admitted it was all his doing, but she still went to prison.  By never holding the child responsible we are, in fact, often now just teaching those under the age of 18 an easy way to rip-off the system with profit for lies at the expense of grown adults who lose everything. 

Having to register as a sex offender and having one's name disseminated to the general public has got to be one of the most injurious things that can happen to one's life.  However, it is now common that even misdemeanor sex offenders are required to register as sex offenders for life, though this was not always the case.  It was ruled in 1983 by the California Supreme Court (Reed  33 Cal.3d 914) that sex registration for misdemeanor offences was unconstitutional, but now we see misdemeanor sex offenders having to register again in California and in every other state as well.  A life-long stigma being attached to a misdemeanor is arguably absurd.  Sex offender registration can devastate the lives of those having to register, causing needless suffering to the great majority of sex offenders who are of no or little threat.  The absurdity of life-long registration boggles the mind.  Are we to have ninety-year-old men hobbling into police stations for something they did when they were in their twenties?  

The information on the site is meant to elucidate the facts, see the reality of the situation, address what is helpful and what is not, and lastly to help counter this modern day witch hunt and gross hysteria that has engulfed the United States and which is slowly creeping outward throughout much of the rest of the world.
