This list, as with the last, is to be continuously updated throughout a two week period, regardless of what articles Mu posts on top of it. Feel free to browse our video channel, as well.

Comment and video tags have been permanently discontinued as AI has no way of remembering to add them. Where an article is paywalled, we will attempt to link the best mirror found at removepaywall.com. In some jurisdictions, American news websites will redirect you to their YouTube channels for legal reasons. There is nothing we can do about this at our end, sadly; consider VPN usage or Tor proxy.

過去十年間,關於「戀童癖」作為強迫症(OCD)患者的常見主題,已有許多討論。其中部分來自專業人士的投機性言論,部分則延續了污名化,但也有部分直接源自患者。雖然將「戀童癖強迫症」(Pedophilia OCD)作為診斷術語 因多種原因而具爭議,但毫無疑問,許多人深受關於自身性取向的強迫性念頭所苦,尤其是在年輕時期。

具體而言,這種焦慮往往聚焦於「戀童」感受——這或許是目前所有性傾向中最受污名化的,然而 卻出奇地普遍。戀童癖當然可以像其他性取向一樣被「控制」——生活在我們當中的戀童癖者證實了他們並非 定時炸彈——這不過是一種為了讓某些人對自身可憎的強迫念頭感覺好些而存在的刻板印象。然而,雖然戀童癖本身並非心理健康問題,但對它的恐懼卻可能是源自於社會污名的更深層心理創傷的起點。

一個可能令某些人震驚、卻獲得廣泛接受的答案

The P Word 上的一篇近期文章為我們提供了 一個窗口,讓我們看到一位深受「自己可能是戀童癖」疑慮折磨的個人,如何透過認識其強迫念頭的對象——活生生的戀童癖者!——來面對自己的心魔。

表面上看,這似乎有些非傳統,但讓自己接觸線上非犯罪的「戀童癖」社群,以及擁有不受監督的兒童接觸機會,這與此類強迫症(OCD)的推薦療法之一「暴露與反應預防療法」是一致的。

在某些情況下,MAP們反而對與強迫症患者的互動感到不安,認為這只會讓情況變得更糟,但過去十年間,人們的態度已逐漸轉變。而在其他情況下,MAP們承認自己對自身的性傾向有強迫性思考,並為其可能採取的形式感到焦慮(例如:「我是...

An L.A. Times investigation has just uncovered the fact that plaintiffs in a record $4bn sex abuse settlement, claim they received cash up-front to sue L.A. County.

This is a finding that provides a degree of confirmation for something many of us have long suspected, or even known about, but felt nervous to speak out about, lest we be accused of victim-blaming. Here, we will present the key details of the story, for those who might not have the time to go over the whole thing.

  1. The investigation uncovered the practice of paying for plaintiffs among what it calls a "nebulous network of vendors", who usher people desperate for cash toward a law firm, Downtown L.A. La...

This list, as with the last, is to be continuously updated throughout the two to three week period, regardless of what articles Mu posts on top of it.

We are discontinuing tagging of stories, as we felt it was not useful. A comment and video tag may appear in the next edition if we can reliably get AI to add them. We also encourage Mu readers to post about any of these news stories on MAP Forum, where they will hopefully get feedback; in some cases, Jim will create a post.

We strongly suggest to readers who like to comment these pieces at the news site, not to wait for the story to appear here, as it will be too late. Instead, conduct your own Google News sear...

你有沒有想過,大眾對「戀童癖者」的看法是如何變得如此扭曲,甚至可能比對 MAP 們這個更廣泛的群體還要扭曲?

你有沒有試圖尋找一個簡單的方法,來解釋我們是如何走到今天這一步,以及為什麼這種情況 似乎永遠不會改變?

在這裡,我們將嘗試為你提供這些問題的答案。這篇貼文也將成為一個有用的資源,供那些同樣有此疑問的人分享。

關於 戀童恐慌 的歷史成因有許多爭論,宗教、女性主義、保守主義、新自由主義等常常成為被責備的對象。但暫時放下這些分歧性的責任歸屬遊戲,轉而檢視一些使這種現狀得以 自我維持 的 持續社會過程,或許會更有幫助。

向你介紹個「善良的戀童癖者」

為了理解這個迷思是如何自我維持的,讓我們先創造一個 角色,他挑戰了所有關於成為 戀童癖者 意味著什麼的常見刻板印象。一個對兒童具有 性慾 或 浪漫 吸引力的男人,這種吸引力是 人類性興趣的一種變體,不多也不少。為了避免讓事情複雜化,他的興趣並不帶有從施加痛苦或折磨他人中受益的傾向。他對將兒童「物化」或「性癖化」不感興趣,也不會因為社會大眾將他的感受視為性「偏差」而感到興奮或刺激。

我們將稱他為 善良的戀童癖者。大多數戀童癖者實際上性格都相當 「善良」,就像他一樣。

但良善的戀童癖者卻被一種只能形容為「完美風暴」、或各種情況匯聚而成的現象,在公眾視野中被抹除。

偏差放大與社會篩選:一種抹除的推拉動態

要充分理解善良戀童癖者的被邊緣化與抹除,我們不僅需要觀察他如何主動將自己隱藏在公眾視野之外,還需要觀察其他人如何用虛假...

Mu's logo incorporates colours from an existing design, the MAP Flag

CLAIM: "MAP PRIDE" SYMBOLS ARE PART OF A COMPLEX SYSTEM OF "SECRET CODE" USED ONLINE AND ELSEWHERE BY QUEER FOLX TO SIGNAL THEIR CRIMINAL INTEREST IN CHILDREN. THESE SYMBOLS WERE FIRST UNCOVERED 20 YEARS AGO WITH THE PUBLISHING OF AN FBI DOCUMENT ON WIKILEAKS.

FACT CHECK: MOSTLY FALSE ❌

2025 has been a crazy year for conspiracy theories based upon the supposedly widespread, yet also allegedly criminal and secretive use of MAP Pride symbology.

Principally, this has related to spiral designs such as the famous BLogo, first shared in 1997, and the derivative GLogo. While these claims are evident...

Mu is glad to announce it can now operate a MAP news wrap service full time, supported by its editorial staff. We are calling it MAP Alert News.

Here's how it will work. Every two weeks, we will post a blog article like this on the home page. The next period will run from 10 Oct to the end of that month, as this one is covering both late August and part of September. Eventually, each post will cover either the first or last ~15 days of a month.

Each MAP Alert News post will contain a chronological list of all the news stories we find useful, unique or interesting. This list will be continuously updated throughout the period, regardless of what articles Mu posts...
