Nothing ever is a threat as long as it stays in your mind. Actions are other things that come from those thoughts. It's just that those people have to realize those kind of thoughts are not okay. Just that.
Yeahh, but being attracted to children isn't exactly normal.
A lot of things in this world aren't considered normal. I say as long as they suppress their sexual urges they're not a threat.
I am sure you are aware homosexuallity was also considered a mental disorder in the past . Fortunately, many of us have changed our mind. It's not really that I know ''the truth'', but it seems like the story repeats itself, so I am taking conclusion. People set norms, some people don't fit in those norms we made up, so of course it must be a mental disorder. We try to fix them for years, we fell miserably, we take conclusion : maybe it's not a mental disorder.
The human race is extremely complex, people can be attracted to tons of things ( yes ''thing'' is more than definitly the word ), and even when they are attracted to other human beings, objects, bugs, and cells can potentially turn them on when having sexual intercourse. Would that be considered mental disorders as well ?
It's not because it doesn't fit the norms of todays westerns society that it's a mental disorder, it's simplistic and idiotic to immediately think so.
You would argue with me that it's official that it is, and yes it's in the list, but psychiatrist don't all agree with it, some even want it's removal.
''Pedophilia — being attracted to a prepubescent or early pubescent kid — is defined by the DSM-5 as a sexual “interest.” (The DSM-5, released in 2013, originally revised its old definition of pedophilia to “sexual orientation” — meaning you were born that way — but there was such a public outcry against this attempt to de-stigmatize it that the brave psychiatrists said that “orientation” was a “typo” and was supposed to be “interest.”) It’s estimated that about one percent of men are, in fact, born this way.''
''Richard Green was very actively involved thirty years ago in the removal of homosexuality from the DSM list of mental disorders. As is known, homosexuality was successfully removed in the early seventies. Now he argues for the removal of pedophilia from the same list.
Green makes a distinction (also made by the Rind team - and by me) between three kinds of discussions or discourses: the legal one, the moral one, and the medical one. To give my own examples: starting a war may be legally correct, - IMHO it is morally incorrect - but it is not a medical illness. Smoking hash or drinking alcohol before a certain age may be legally wrong, but one might see no moral objections; a doctor might counter-advise it, but it is no illness per se.
A pedophile who activates his or her desires into action may infringe the law; one may discuss if it is morally right or wrong, but another kind of question is if her or his is actions are the outcome of a mental disorder. Moreover: does a pedophile who inhibits her or his behavior within any legal or moral limits, still have a mental disorder through his feelings per se? No, says Green.'' - http://www.helping-people.info/articles/asb.htm
There's more, actual psychatrist, who think it's time to see pedophilia as something else, but I am sure it isn't necessary to quote all of them.
Of course our brave psychiatrist wouldn't want to displease the people, it's not a good reputation to be the one who defended pedophilia that in the minds of many equal to sexual abuser.
I will say, pedophilia is very likely to be a sexuallity an unfortunate sexuality but a sexuality nevertheless.
I just think they grew with a really unfortunate sexuality, but like all sexualities, they aren't obligated to act on them. I feel bad for t… morehem because of course, I can't simply allow them to act on their feelings, some of them are really into very young children.
I'm pretty sure paedophilia is actually a mental disorder, not a sexuality. Although you're completely right that a paedophile isn't necessarily a child molester, unlike the way it's presented in the media.
I don't mind prostitution and if someone say they do that with their life I wouldn't judge them, the problem is that when they are going to complain about rape it will be even harder to prove they aren't lying, or using their job in order to throw in jail. That's why I am not sure if it should be legalized or not...
I actually agree with this to an extent, but the main problem arises with the fact, most prostitutes are forced into the trade and are intimidated or drugged into continuing by pimps, who take most of the profits.
''You really would be okay with seeing a 11-year-old being romantically involved with a 28(or 27 I forgot)-year-old?''
In a work of fiction, a piece of art, I would gladly do so. You seem to make of both of these human beings numbers, and erase the maturity and personnality they obviously have wish make it look much worst than it actually is. You probably know that someone's experiences heavily inflect on his personnality, and it's personnality heavily inflect on his ability to make decisions and avoid ( or not ) manipulation. Maturity is gained by experiences more than numbers, and Clementine is definitly more mature than me, who's older. It's a factor that shouldn't be forgotten.
But even if we were talking about some child who isn't as mature as Clementine, I would say yes, if the pedophile is something more than a typical villain we see for two minutes before he/she gets killed. I would find it absolutely captivating to see the pain, denial, conflict and emotional journey of a pedophile in a video game. I would play as one and I would play as the child as well if need be. A story can be told and I admit, I like my games angsty. I mean...do you have a well potrayed pedophile who is also an important character in a video game in mind ? I don't deserve the ''gamer'' title, so I wouldn't know.
Yeahh, but being attracted to children isn't exactly normal.
Normality, here, is subjective and I don't really care what ''most people'' have to say when I try to build an opinion, I personnaly don't see why it would be anormal, people feel stuff, it happens. If you say it's wrong, it's subjective as well. Being attracted to someone/something isn't anormal, it's just preferable not to act on it if the adult risk to kill or hurt the object of their desire, especially if it's alive and also if that person/animal doesn't feel the same way.
That's why I have nothing against pedophiles, but pedophiles shouldn't act on what they feel, on today's western society...
That was like 90% of Tumblr. /s

this ship would be fascinating and have a lot of potential.
You really would be okay … morewith seeing a 11-year-old being romantically involved with a 28(or 27 I forgot)-year-old?
Be more open minded maybe and know that as long as they don't try anything they are just people.
Yeahh, but being attracted to children isn't exactly normal.

So... You obviously also think that any heterosexual ( non-related ) couples shouldn't try to form a family if they have an high chance of producing a child suffering from mental health issues.
I am fine with incest, this time, not only in a fictional context. ( any type of incest, as long as the two people involved are okay with it )
It's all fine and dandy until they decide to make a baby.

Yeah, she is mature and shit, for her age. She is a child. A child that should be playing with toys and watching cartoons at her age, but apocalypse happened and no time for that. Pedophiles, and pretty much everyone, is attracted mainly to someone because of their body. You know, you'd rather get it on with that person ASAP because you find them hot.
I personally wouldn't want my choices to be [Tell this little girl you find her hot] and [Smile and cry inside]. But, I am no gamer either so you'd have to ask someone else that.
Well, at the end of the day everything can be subjective. Look, I couldn't care less what anyone besides me is attracted to, but yes, I personally find it disgusting. And it is pretty much illegal for reasons.

I feel that if men would simply keep their word, would honor the agreement that they make, that the world would be in a much better place.
I hate people who are dishonest, and who will say anything and everything that you want to hear just so they can get ahead. And that's the biggest reason why I hate politicians!
I hate people who try to force their way of life, or their ideas on other people. I've even seen those who claim to be Live and Let Live, and yet their actions have revealed them to be just like the very types of people that they claim to be against.
And our government is an excellent example of such despicable Behavior.
For example, the government constantly made treaties with the Indians, and then constantly broke them whenever it was in the government's best interest.
And as a result, many of those indians, young and old, had their human rights violated, and many outright died because of such treachery.
And our government has also lied to it's very own people. As it's willing to throw the people who go off to war to serve its interest to the wolves once it's done with them.
Because of such treacherous behavior, veterans are not getting the help they need, and many are dying before they ever see a dime of what they were promised.
And if the government does that to the citizens ranked as American Heroes, then what makes you think it won't do the same thing to average citizens?
The level of hypocrisy and insincerity in our world is sickening.
Like I said, the world would be a much better place if men would keep their word when they give it, and not try to force their way of life on other people.
The way I see it, as long as you are not doing anything that's harming the rights of other people, or harming the environment - and I say that because we all share this planet - then I don't really care what you do. It's not my life, it's yours!
Since I brought up the planet, I believe that we are as people we have a responsibility to leave this planet better than we got it. Our children our grandchildren are going to have to live here just like we did, and I think we owe it to them to make it as good as we can.
Oh, where do I begin...
* Mira Forrester is my favorite Telltale protagonist and favorite character in general.
* I dislike The Wolf A… moremong Us and I think it's overrated.
* I think Game of Thrones and Tales From the Borderlands are both equally amazing.
* The finale of Life is Strange is one of the worst episodes of a game that I have ever played.
* I think Fallout 3 is kinda overrated.
* Fallout 4 isn't a bad game. In fact I think it's a good game, even in Fallout standards.
* I like Fallout 4 and Fallout: New Vegas more than Fallout 3. (I still like Fallout 3, though)
* If I had to choose between GoT and TFTB, GoT is my favorite Telltale game and favorite game in general.
* I ship Asher x Gwyn.
* I think that The Walking Dead: Season 2 is so damn underrated.
* I liked Duck in The Walking Dead: Season 1.
* I liked Sarah, too, in The Walking Dead: Season 2.
Okay, I think I should stop now.
How do you know this is an unpopular opinion?
Its not really, Once I asked a guy about it and he said they do masturate and they do it with four hands!
On the internet in general, I like Walking Dead Survival Instinct, latest Resident Evil games, and I don't mind the latest Simpsons and SpongeBob episodes.
Yes indeed, ridiculous. With those who always think that some couple is platonic or something because the creators don't slam sexual intercourse to their faces (which probably wouldn't be enough), you can think who would say "I don't think Walter is hetero" if Matthew was a woman.

Not an opinion, but a fact: Just because your opinion matches a bandwagon doesn't mean you're in the bandwagon
Batman Returns is a great movie. Not as good as the first movie, but I thought it lived up to the first one.
Definitely. Just adopt.
Maybe?
I did just say I liked Batman v Superman more than The Dark Knight Rises.
Telltale actually confirmed he and Matthew were in a relationship.
...How do you know this is an unpopular opinion? Like, do you ask other people if they think ants jerk off?

Lol Walter and Matthew were boyfriends. Now, whether he is gay or bi....
Yes...

It was short. You had a girlfriend and asked people for some advice. WHAT AM I
Crips having a girlfriend? Yup, it was surely a dream
Nice one lollipop
So I looked like a female Nick with a girlfriend, asking for advice.
Yeah, that's likely. Minus the GF part.

No they are not.
