Celoneth:
Things don't always come across written as you mean them - the fact
that  so many people were confused by your post is evidence of that.
Plus the fact that part of your evidence was based on DD's
relationship with GG when they were both young men as "ebophilic." If
one is to use that kind of evidence then the vast majority of the
population would be ebophiles for being attracted to teenagers when
they themselves were teenagers. I've read your posts on the list, and
no, they are not clear and they sound extremely offensive. If that
isn't your intent then you should clarify your position or not be
surprised when people get offended by what you post. You can't have it
both ways - to have people not criticise your argument or not be
offended by it w/o being clear as to what you're actually arguing
about. A lot of the moral crimes/gays and lesbians = ebophiles
arguments sound a lot like what people who hate gays & lesbians argue
- so when you make similar arguments w/o making clarifications then
you're going to get criticised for it.
