He may be but can we not equate pedophilia with a certain look? It let's a lot of bad people get away with it and throws innocent people in harms way.

They do have a certain look. Just go on one of those Megan's law registers online and look at the pictures for a while. That weird smile

The ones that get caught may fit your internal bias, but that doesn't mean that all people who look like that are pedophiles or that all pedophiles look a certain way. You're letting attractive people who molest children get away with it more easily by thinking that.

I am not letting anyone get away with anything. I am not a LEO

Establishing a culture of "pedophiles are always ugly" is letting attractive pedophiles get away with it.

You surely have some peer-approved scientific sources to for your claims? Also, "can we not" automatically makes me think of you as some brain dead meme kid with no identity other than being "good at" social media.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What? You don't need a peer reviewed study to know that pedophilia has absolutely nothing to do with a person's physical appearance.

[–] suction@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Then you also don’t need that for the opposite. See how that works?

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

you're literally the one that brought up peer reviewed studies you soggy napkin

[–] suction@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You started with the unfounded claims, so glasshouses and stones.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No I didn't, the original comment did claiming that pedophiles have a certain look

[–] suction@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I stand corrected: You didn’t start, but you piled on with the unfounded claims.

Your "surely have some peer-approved scientific sources" automatically makes me think of you as some brain dead meme kid with no identity other than being "good at" social media.

Right? Like it's not a matter of scientific inquiry, it's equivalent to saying "all thieves are black people". You don't need a peer reviewed study to refute that lmao
