01) Stigmatization of People With Pedophilia: A Blind Spot in Stigma Research

“Abstract

ABSTRACT. Stigmatization restricts people’s opportunities in life and has severe consequences on mental health and psychological well-being. This article focuses on stigmatization research on pedophilia. Based on an extensive literature search, it reviews studies that have empirically determined lay theories, stereotypes, prejudices, and discrimination against people with pedophilia, as well as the effect of stigma on this group. The review reveals a scarcity of empirical studies on the subject (11). Although the majority of studies give at least an indication that stigma against people with pedophilia is highly prevalent, we also identified severe methodological limitations and a lack of a unifying and systematic research agenda. We discuss the need for more theory-driven, rigorous, and representative empirical studies and propose perspectives and requirements for the scientific study of stigma against people with pedophilia.”

01) Trump: John McCain Was A “Loser,” Not a War Hero

“Trump attacks people who reported that he said soldiers are “losers” and “suckers.”

President Donald Trump delivered a lengthy, rambling denial of the bombshell Atlantic story on his alleged denigration of U.S. war dead that included calling the sources of those allegations — some of whom are military members themselves — “lowlifes and liars.”

On Thursday night, Trump responded to the now-multiple stories detailing his alleged remarks with a remarkable unlit tirade on the tarmac at Joint Base Andrews that included relitigating the public arrangements for deceased Senator John McCain’s memorial and attacking the sources of the reports.

01) The Establishment Crying Over Joe Kennedy’s Loss to Ed Markey

“Democratic strategists are in shock over Joe Kennedy’s loss to Ed Markey.

The question seemed to trail him everywhere, from the day Joe Kennedy announced he’d challenge Sen. Ed Markey in the Democratic primary to the final hours of the campaign: Why are you running?

In a year of campaigning across Massachusetts, Kennedy never seemed to come up with a satisfactory answer. In the end, he simply gave up trying.
