In reply to B4U-ACT labels minor-adults-sex as 'abuse' posted by Filip30 on 2018-June-4 01:58:53, Monday

First of all, when B4U-ACT writes "abuse prevention" they (also) mean by this the abuse MAPs are suffering by being stigmatized, attacked, and sometimes killed. As in: "Before you act and send your minor attracted child or teenager to 'aversion therapy' or attempt to kill them otherwise, please listen and inform yourself."

Secondly, in a society in which queer people, including minor attracted people, are often stereotyped as rapists it is extremely prejudiced to imply that minor attraction (or homosexuality or pansexuality etc.) would somehow be connected to abuse.

Probably exactly because of this B4U-ACTs writes here that it wants to have a discussion beyond this problematic narrow framework that is so common nowadays when people talk about minor attraction.

Nowhere does B4U-ACT state that what they mean by abuse would include consensual intimacy. Does everyone always have to define what they mean by abuse or else you will accuse them of labeling intergenerational intimacy as such?

B4U-Act clearly states on its website that it takes no position on issues of disagreement http://www.b4uact.org/about-us/statements-and-policies/statement-on-issues-of-agreement/

So therefore there's no reason to think B4U-ACT would include intergenerational intimacy when using the word abuse, quite the contrary (as this would otherwise be in contradiction to what they write about their neutral position).

"Will B4U-ACT ever say sorry for their current and past insults?"

When has B4U-ACT insulted you or someone else? Honest question. I've never seen anything of them that I found prejudiced or as attacking other people.

Or are you insulted by B4U-ACT merely because as an organisation by and for MAPs it mentions the word abuse on its website? Do you criticize MAPs talking about their own experiences with discrimination? Is it not okay to even mention harmful narratives and stereotypes, even when one tries to do something against them?
