Virtuous Pedophiles official website
I’ve never been a member of Virtuous Pedophiles [VP], and make no claim on internal knowledge of the group. I know what I know, from years of watching it’s self representing members.
…I’ve also witnessed a lot of VP clashing, with us more traditional Minor Attracted People [MAPs] who’ve been presenting a public face to the world.
Whether any of what follows is 100% accurate, 100% false…or it more realistically falls somewhere between the extreme margins…these are genuine points of conflict [and sincere perception], based on our historical legacies.
a) VP is largely looked upon as an assimilationist movement…
…And many MAPs who’ve spent their lives in hiding, being abused by their culture and the system…who’s life transforming experience, was learning the truth about themselves and their culture…and learning how to seize their own voice…
…many of those MAPs are accepting none of it…
…Because to accept, re-internalize and propagate the message and practice of an abusive culture [even if only in part]…is walking backwards…It’s worse than losing ground…It’s re-affirming what is worst, about these conflicts…and helping those destructive things to thrive.
This is sacrilege to many MAPs.
For a lot of us who’ve withstood many storms and assaults, and who’ve stood the test of time…It seems like we are finally reaching an era, where “normal” people are figuring out that we are not going away…and largely, they’ve given up on trying to run us off.
This is progress…It’s an early benchmark…I am pleased to see it.
Paradoxically…VP, with it’s closer to mainstream message, might be helping to ease this transition.
b) Who is represented in VP leadership?…
As a more less classic pedophile [one who is strictly attracted to prepubescent humans], who has no true legal options, sexually…I would not even think of belonging to a “pedophile group”, where someone like myself was not at least on a steering committee…
…And given that the founders, and so many of the most vocal members, have at least a dual sexual orientation involving entirely legal [and non-stigmatized] options…this creates a very real problem…because there is no way possible, that this kind of structure can honestly comprehend and represent, a life and existence like my own.
I’ve been coming to think of VP more in the sense of, “I’m happy with my wife, and normal life…Oh, but I also incidentally pop boners for boys and girls…But that’s okay, because I’ve never needed them in that way…I’ve got my wife, see?”…
That’s all fine and wonderful, for some…There have always been “pedophiles” of that nature, around and involved…But is that really a fair representation, that so many of the rest of us MAPs can identify with?…or that we want representing us?
…It’s entirely alien, to me.
Sadly…from my vantage point, VP has looked to be made up of essentially three kinds of “pedophiles”…One is the group I just mentioned…The second is old and burned out MAPs, who just don’t want to fight anymore, and VP represents something they believe “hasn’t been tried yet”…And third, the young and idealistic MAPs…who haven’t had to walk this path for several decades, learning harshly how the system really works…oblivious to the knowledge, that the system is built upon the premise, of a right to shred people like us to a bloody pulp.
I’m positive anyone could nit pick at what I’ve just expressed [IE: they have their own outlook and status, which is not represented above]…But if you can understand why I’ve pointed out these things, and understand the honesty behind my words…then you should be able to figure out, why these points are so relevant.
Addendum: I left out one additional sort of MAP…The “penitent pervert, enthusiastic convert”…or the “last refuge of the scoundrel” syndrome…
…These rather un-charming chaps got themselves into some legal trouble, and now they’re back with a vengeance, to redeem themselves…by enthusiastically targeting other MAPs, and making themselves a nuisance.
How better to earn brownie points with your parole officer, than to go online as a newborn moral crusader, preaching and enforcing the common sermons?…and showing off everything you’ve been up to, whenever you are forced to visit? The witch becomes the witch hunter…
…and mentally elevates themselves, by deciding that now even they have someone else to look down upon and attack…
…I find these sorts of MAPs to possibly be the single most distasteful and irritating characters, on the entire stage of this social conflict.
c) Stop using NAMBLA as the dog you kick!
This has been a disturbing behavior amongst some VP members…bad mouthing and running down previously existing MAP organizations, because they never promoted the VP platform.
…Some VP members imagine themselves doing something noble, by openly condemning NAMBLA [and similar organizations], or otherwise acting to sully it’s character.
There is no justification or defense for this behavior, period…and it is the sign, of an ignorant mind.
It would be far better for them to simply not acknowledge NAMBLA at all…or to show a bit more class, and just say something like, “Different MAPs have different life experiences, leading to different outlooks…We respectfully disagree with theirs”…
NAMBLA has fought some incredibly important battles on behalf of all MAPs, whether they like it or not. NAMBLA has forged the path, on which so many of us MAPs even have a voice at all, today.
How about a little bit of compassion and human decency here?
If you are an opinionated MAP, standing up for MAP rights…you already owe a debt of gratitude, to organizations like NAMBLA…whether you like it or not.
I am amongst the many MAPs, who owe this debt of gratitude…and I find it absolutely sickening, to watch other MAPs throwing groups like NAMBLA under the bus…
…You sorts remind me of gays and lesbians, who will disavow anything the second it becomes politically inconvenient [no matter what it’s done for them, or how far it advanced them], just to jump ship and cling to anything they believe will advance them further…An utter lack of principled integrity.
The open honesty and integrity of NAMBLA, has always been of a better quality than that of VP.
Just because so many people don’t like honesty with integrity, and prefer the re-affirmation of existing social paradigms, does nothing to change that fact.
People who would burn down the very legacy, which built the place they stand upon…they have no future…they have no loyalty…they are not leaders…They are easily led slaves.
This is one aspect about VP members, I find most offensive…
…There are many, many good and decent MAPs, who are of the NAMBLA viewpoint…I am amongst them, incase there was any doubt…
…We don’t deserve being slapped in the face, or spat upon, by you…or called “crazy”, or any of the other below the belt rubbish, some of you do.
Some of you at VP wonder why there is so much backlash against you, from other MAPs?…This kind of arrogant contempt, is amongst the valid reasons. It only serves to create bad will and turbulence, amongst MAPs.
