Kids, Sex and the State

The age group with by far the largest number of convictions for sex offenses are people between 14 and 20 years old.
---
There are 19,000 minors on sex offender registries nationally. 19,000! Some of these people are as young as 11 years old.
---
In every state of the union if you have sex and you are a minor you are likely committing a felony.
---
Kids are being arrested for taking naked pictures of themselves—this is called sexting—and sending them on their cellphones to their friends.
---
So the person can be a perpetrator and a victim of child pornography production at the same time! Then the friends who receive the images are now in possession
---
But there was a survey done of kids about their online behavior and 1 out of 5 kids said they had done sexting. So that's 20% of kids are doing some sort of a crime.
---
Being caught for child pornography is no small thing. It is a federal crime and the penalties for it are four times higher, in general, than they are for murder.
---
So if a kid gets prosecuted for one of these things they are in deep trouble and, as with all sex crimes, they will be on a sex offender registry afterwards.
---
The criminalization of teen sex is very good for prisons and juvenile detention centers many of which are private. From 1985 to 1995 youth detention grew 72% in America.
---
In Pennsylvania two judges were charged with receiving kickbacks of 2.6 million dollars over 4 years for sentencing kids to juvenile detention. These places are really torturous. Kids have died in them.

I thought this article was worth sharing because it really highlights some important points that I think people need to understand. We are putting many kids through a literal hell because of naive emotions rather than wise logic. Sexual hormones are not a disease that require curing, and I feel it's beyond absurdity to be treating these children like criminals and sex offenders. These poor kids even undergo therapy to help "cure" them, as if the natural instinct to want sex is a blasphemous and criminal thing because they aren't of a certain age which society deems acceptable. One kid replies "I learned that sex is bad" when he is asked what the therapy taught him.

This quote really sums it up for me:

"The panic surrounding youthful sexuality can perhaps best be compared to the war on drugs: Both are based on ideology rather than science, and no amount of evidence can change the minds of true believers. Both mask underlying social agendas in which concern for children is used to control the behavior of adults. And both engender problems of credibility as young people reject exhortations to do as I say, not as I did."—Judith Levine

It's no secret that they wish to control the future population of this world with propaganda like this. Look in the past and you will see that things were much simpler back then but this time things are just lacking logic in all aspects. Of course this is just another way to get people in jail faster so I guess they need to have people put behind bars easily like this, even if they get framed.

Yeah, this is a touchy subject(NOOOO pun intented!!!). But children or people find their own age or time to become curious about sex, so let them explore it if it's with people in their own age bracket.

I've been interested in sex as far as i can remember. And no, i wasn't molested. That isn't the reason why. I just explored one day and found as it it is said in the bible, "it was good." So i kept on with it. and personally I'm glad. It led me to learning a great deal about each sexes organs, how they work, and how to pleasure both.

So i feel more complete with myself than a prudish person would, because i know my partners anatomy as well as my own, through my curious exploration the human of the reproductive system. I actually aced my year 5 sexual anatomy class test. Just me and another student, a female, accomplished this. I have always been interested in human sexuality, and reproductive habits.

Sooo, unless it involves an of age person taking advantage of them, i feel they should keep their nose out of their buisiness. Unless they are stupid enough to post pictures of themselves on the internet which is a large no no. No matter what age- under 18(I think...).

Exactly right. And I also feel if anyone should be telling children when they should be having sex it should be the parents. It reminds of that recent thread about the teen curfews. That is the government/law directly dictating where and when a person can leave the house, and this is the government/law dictating what a person can and cannot do with their own body. It really ticks me off.

Exactly, brother or sister, when I become a parent someday I plan to answer any and all questions regarding human sexuality, and to reinforce that there is nothing dirty about your body, it's a gift and yours alone to share with anyone you feel comfortable with.

I know I said "it's a gift" like i'm a believer in the bible or something, i'm not really, but i do believe your own body is a wonderous machine and a gift and access should only be allowed to the worthy.

I had a friend in primary school who's parents were from europe. Belgium to be precise, and I remember him telling when we were learning about human sexuality in class that his parents told him everthing he wanted to know. Openly.

Thats how it should be, but people are so afraid of anything sexual, that they'll prefer to have their children view a violent movie instead. Like it's easier to explain i guess, or more comfortable. I just don't think adults are truly being adults if they can't answer their childs question about where children come from and how.

They only use sex offender list on males and a few token females. Basically the Church can't repress women anymore so they are trying to enforce both the 19th century masculine and feminine gender roles on young men.

Feminist's and other leftist's are male haters that get off on seeing males in pain/suffering so they have no qualms with it.

The traditionalist's/Church's long term goal is to expand upon it to the point it over lapses and drags women into it(hold males to such a high, extreme standard while giving female the vagina pass for a long enough time and their will be an explosive demand for "equality", forcing females into the same system.).

Tactics like these by the Church/traditionalist's I call "the traditionalist's noose". As they will allow for traditionalist to turn the clock backwards in regards to gender rights and traditions/customs. And since feminist's are such blind female supremacist male hating bigots, they will gladly fall for the noose time and time again. Because when you allow or engage in the dehumanization of another person you yourself become dehumanized as well.

This is the reason why I refuse to go to Church anymore. Because they are intentionally sabotaging and sacrificing boy's, young men and men; so they can achieve their matriarchal, traditionalist utopia. Nothing but satanic* followers of Cain**.


*I view Satan in the classic sense. Not a person but more of a harmful, destructive/narcissistic "meme" or state of mind.
**In reference to the old Biblical story of Cain and Abel. The Church and traditionalist's are intentionally betraying males so as to expand their own belief system(by blaming feminist's for the damaged caused to said males and as a mechanism to re-enslave women[arguably the only demo-graph with rights anymore])

Being caught for child pornography is no small thing. It is a federal crime and the penalties for it are four times higher, in general, than they are for murder.

Huh? I would like to see a source, because that is quite absurd, IMHO.

As for the thread topic, these laws are simply wrong, and they mainly serve to criminalize consentual sex between young people instead of preventing exploitation of minors. I believe there needs to be a near-age exception.
