As someone who is pretty actively involved in politics right now, as someone who is something of a spokesperson for the small town that I live in, I should probably tell you that people, in general, are extremely difficult to work with at times and opposition is almost always imminent, even on the smallest issues. One of the big things I'm fighting for, right now, has to do with the education system, not only in my town, but in my state. People in big positions have a tendency to write lesser folks off with little to no consideration of care as to who agrees or disagrees. My advice is to make sure you get people who are highly skilled at speaking. If you can find folks who have little to no dirt in their past, that's even better. I've seen some amazing people get taken down for just writing poetry. One thing I should mention, by the way, is that I've never stated my feelings on adult-child relations. Part of the reason why, and I don't mean this in any offensive way, is because I don't actually know how to feel about the concept. I know how I feel, biologically. I know that I am sexually attracted to male children, but I keep that private. If I did feel positively, one way or the oher, about the idea, I would be fearful to share my thoughts on it since I work very closely with children as part of my job and feel that I would be vilified. However, I do think that it's an issue that is worth discussing in the near future. Now, honestly, I do dread the day when I am asked about my feelings regarding adult-child relationships because I'm not a good liar at all and I know that I would probably end up feeling really depressed even if I did find it in myself to outright lie and state that I think it's a terrible thing. I know, though, that in our society, such a thing isn't tolerated. What can I say, pushing this kind of thing leads to a lot of potentially terrible consequences. Anyway, you get the point. You've probably thought all about this stuff or are aware already of where I'm coming from. I guess I'm just responding by sharing my thoughts and feelings about these things. |
