I hope this isn’t too spicy a topic for the, what, 7th post on this community? But I see that we already have /c/Zoophilia on the instance and it already has an impressive 80 subscribers. Even as a zoo myself, though, I made the decision to block it as I’m firm in my belief that animals can’t consent. What are everyone’s thoughts on the instance growing other communities about other paraphilias? I know we have a lot of lolicons/shotacons/etc. here, so a community for pedophilia/minor attraction would be really cool and I think fit right in. I’ve always wanted a community for that in a reddit-esque style. (They exist as forums, chat-rooms, and mastodon instances, though!) But if it follows in the footsteps of the zoophilia community and everyone there seems to believe kids can consent, I’d have to block it too. And then I’ll be back at zero when it comes to having a reddit-like community of MAPs! 🥲

What do you think about the prospect of more paraphilia communities? Awesome or scary? Good for the instance or bad for it? I’m also interested in hearing everyone’s opinion on creating alternate paraphilia communities exclusively for anti-contact discussions. (If one like that for zoophilia existed I would happily join!)

    My main worry is distinguishing between paraphiles that want help and predators. Places like rot.gives basically have become a haven for those that openly want to rape children. Errante just plays to dumb to it by saying I’m fine with loli, like that’s equal to posting about wanting to rape real children. The average person struggles to distinguish crossdressing and transgenderism, unfortunately i don’t think the average person can distinguish paraphiles from predators. Personally i think we should kill predators, but allow paraphiles to live normal lives. Otherwise were going to move more paraphiles to rape, and nothing is solved. The thing is both ends need to keep strong line between offenders and non, unless we end up killing innocents or we allow continued rape.

      Personally I think the state killing people is bad actually. The chances of a person escaping from a life-long prison sentence are practically zero. If the purpose of killing people is to prevent the harm they may have caused in the future, then life sentences have essentially the exact same effectiveness. You can partially undo a life-sentence as has been done many many times. You cannot undo a death sentence. If you are at all concerned with the possibility of killing innocent people then the death penalty should not be on your radar as a serious option.

        Im more taking morally not legally. I was molested and know who my molester is, i whould be in my moral right to kill him (atleast personally). The government is too poorly run in general to the point i don’t expect anything from them.
