I'd like to see the source of those numbers. What statistics and where
are these published?
Also let's not forget that what is CP is now incredibly broadly defined.
Sexual penetration is also very broadly defined eg a finger in the mouth
is (legally) sexual penetration in many jurisdictions, just as a hand on
a thigh can be sexual assault.
I'm not saying there aren't images of penis/vagina/anus penetration, I'm
sure there are. But this still comes from the paradigm that says a minor
engaged in sexual activity (including some kind of penetration) is always
being harmed. That is disputable and depends on exactly what is
happening.
As for violent images of torture or forced sex - personally I would find
these disturbing. And yes, believe it or not, there are underage boys
who enjoy anal penetration, though I personally have not done that - this
is obvious from the number of underage gays who are fucking each other.
As for images of say 3yo, I find these cute in the sense of baby picture
cute only. These don't turn me on. Call me old fashioned.
What I mean by all this is the caricature in this article is misleading.
Never forget that the vast majority of charges laid do not include any
kind of sadistic activity or torture. That's be like saying that
allegedly "normal" adult heterosexuals with a porn collection (which also
BTW contains a lot of shit they don't even know they have) are into
violent S&M and are really potential psychopathic rapists and killers. In
fact, the vast majority of child sex charges laid do not even include
penetration, since they have been charging people for the slightest
possible infraction of the sexual assault laws for some years now on the
"slippery slope" principle, including touching a thigh.
The "slippery slope" principle is a very bad basis for lawmaking in any
area. In effect, it is prosecuting people for what they *might* do,
according to whatever figures are cooked up, which is a fundamentally
against any notion of fairness. To be consistent, we should bring in
heavy penalties for women who *might* beat their babies, to name one
example, or marijuana smokers, since they *might* turn into crack heads
and kill someone.
So, as usual, offences are aggregated into one big basket and sweeping
generalizations and caricatures of monsters are sketched crudely out and
handed to the ever-drooling media, where Brandon reads them and posts
them here.
