Hi Oliver!

How's it been holding up big guy? Parkordude91

Abd Lomax's conspiracy theory about my identity is getting old... I'm not that person. Also if you look on the Kiwi Farms article, what I actually did was delete the entire Joshua Conner Moon page (see what it formerly looked like on archive.is). I also deleted the Joshua Conner Moon talk, but I was reverted. The new article on Kiwi Farms looks pretty neutral if you ask me, i.e. it only says "critics point out" as if others disagree, furthermore it notes Moon's comments about killing Muslims are possibly not serious, although that's disputable (only he knows). The section on Joshua is now a mere 3 lines. Skeptical (talk) 03:12, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

An angry BoN appeared!

Hey asshole,

Just because I support a stance that those who have reached puberty are at a more mature level doesn't classify me as a pedophile, or a creep. Have you even looked at what the term pedophile even means? I am 18 myself and as a recent teenager I can speak to how miscategorized we are. While an adolescent brain is still growing, it is not a six-year-old brain by any means.

Also, attraction to some post-pubescent teens is natural, due to their mature appearance. I only justify acting on this if they are 16 or older, the common age of consent.

Just because I am arguing a particular stance does not mean you should block me. Doing so is censoring my opinion. Rational people are supposed to rely on science and logic, not whatever the fuck you're doing. (And yes, I know I called you an asshole. This was obviously in retaliation.)

You posted sexual attraction to pubescent's is natural. This is pedophilia and the only people who try to re-define pedophilia to pre-pubescents (to exclude pubescents) are pedophiles/pedophilia apologists. Also, I'm not interested in debating this with pedophiles: you're clearly a pedophile who comes here expecting to "debate" this subject. There's millions of topics to edit, and you're a creep who comes here to edit pedophilia articles. If I had it my way, this site would just block pedophiles on sight.Skeptical (talk) 15:32, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

The average age for starting puberty is 12. Adults should not be attracted to 12 year olds. I'm guessing you both have Tumblr accounts?

F65.4 Paedophilia

A. The general criteria for F65 Disorders of sexual preference must be met.

B. A persistent or a predominant preference for sexual activity with a prepubescent child or children.

C. The person is at least 16 years old and at least five years older than the child or children in B.

Adults' views on minor sex are really disgusting. Considering the fact I heard an adult say that she was mature enough to have sex when she was 14. She used the exact same arguments that the BoN did. No. Dear BoN, an 30 year old adult should not be dating an 16 year old teen. Screw so called maturity arguments. Minors are not 100% capable of informed consent. Regardless of medical definition on pedophilia. It doesn't matter if pedophilia is defined as attraction to prepubescents or not. —ClickerClock (talk) 09:16, 3 November 2017 (UTC)

The term pedophilia is commonly used in a legal context to an adult who has sexual intercourse with someone under the legal age of consent; that's always been my understanding of the word. If you look up an age of consent map by country, virtually everywhere is between 16 and 18. Those figures are not arbitrary since they match legal adulthood, which is also between 16 and 18 (nearly everywhere). So this is why under 16-18 is legally a "minor". The only people who try to re-define pedophilia outside of law are pedophiles/pedophile apologists.Skeptical (talk) 15:33, 3 November 2017 (UTC)

Ad hominems

It's fine to insult people, especially those who hold really stupid views, but this feels pretty pithy rather than snarky. oʇɐʇoԀʇɐϽʎzznℲ (talk/stalk) 02:18, 3 November 2017 (UTC)
