The American mainstream Left, it seems, is experiencing a minor-crisis over the "pedophile" menace in these end-time days of Epstein.
We might ask on the one hand; are pedophiles something the Left should run away from like startled kids, or even deny, as per the drag-panic and groomer-libel we have all become far too familiar, and frankly bored to death with? Or is pedophilia a hysteria-de-jour they should instead continue to sow the seeds of, lest the pedo-smear one day become profitable as it now promises to be with the incoming release of the "Epstein Files"?
Commentators, naturally, appear not only to...
For the most in-depth treatment of the Farmer/Salter group's attacks on the MAP Scholarship, please head over to B4U-ACT's quarterly review.
This past month has been a busy one in academia, with many papers of importance entering the public databases. Philip Tromovitch (an original member of the Rind team, now based out in Japan) has published:
The key takeaways from his research are that a reasonably large sample of men overwhelmingly endorsed positive descriptors for their experiences. Men "find their early, willing sexual contacts with older pa...
In October 2024, the MAP community became aware of a horrible tragedy perpetrated by Nicholas Prosper, a young man from the UK who murdered his mother and two siblings. Networking with various contacts within the MAP community led us to find that Prosper had actually been active within our community and identified as a MAP, with a special interest in the character of Clementine from The Walking Dead video game series. Some of this information has now been published by mainstream media, and we expect more to be revealed at his sentencing.

MAP Union, or Mu, is an organization that advocates for MAP visibility, equality, cautious legal reform, and youth rights. If you're curious about the 'MAP' term, perhaps considering it a euphemism, please read here.
Recently, we have been the subject of a smear campaign by the far-right anti-trans hate group Gays Against Groomers, which has in turn led to our organization being defamed by firebrand Sicilian politician Francesca Donato.

MAP Union, or Mu, è un'organizzazione che promuove la visibilità, l'uguaglianza, la riforma legale prudente e i diritti dei giovani. Se sei curioso riguardo al termine 'MAP' e forse lo consideri un eufemismo, puoi leggere ulteriori informazioni qui.
Di recente, abbiamo subito una campagna di diffamazione da parte del gruppo di estrema destra anti-trans Gays Against Groomers (GAG), che a sua volta ha portato la nostra organizzazione a essere diffamata dalla politica siciliana Francesca Donato.
The MAP term is these days derided on the one hand by conservatives as the epitome of 'woke', and by liberals on the other hand for 'glorifying/normalizing pedophilia'. To many across the entire political spectrum, MAP = pedophile = child rapist. The term was intended not to push any kind of sexual contact agenda, but to unify people attracted to children and teens while avoiding the stigma of the misused 'pedophile' and the many outrageous assumptions surrounding those to whom this term is applied. Pedophile is also a word used to describe a variety of phenomena which are not necessarily connected. Many people, when using this word, are not 'calling a spade a...
政治右派往往將MAP們（喜歡未成年人的人）視為涉及LGBTQ+權利的「文化戰爭」的下一階段。政治左派則常將MAP們視為4chan上的騙局，意在詆毀LGBTQ+群體。雙方都錯了，本文將說明原因。
今年五月，奧爾巴尼市議員Thomas Brough因聲稱「LGBTQ+」縮寫中的「+」號也包含戀童癖者而遭到斥責。他在市議會會議上深思熟慮地表示：「我鼓勵大家去了解何謂『minor-attracted persons』。」結果，Brough因此遭到Albany Pride等各LGBTQ+團體的嚴厲批評，這些團體聲稱此類關聯純屬捏造。在引發公憤後，他已被要求接受「敏感度培訓」。
現代的LGBTQ+團體當然有權表達自己的觀點，而且許多現代酷兒確實與MAP保持距離。然而，歷史告訴我們，他們否認與MAP之間存在任何聯繫是錯誤的。酷兒社群中一些最傑出的思想家其實是 MAP，或是對喜歡未成年持中立或積極的態度。同志權利運動之父Harry Hay曾堅決主張，應將那些倡導未成年愛好者群體權益的組織（例如NAMBLA）納入更廣泛的酷兒解放鬥爭之中。但這僅是MAP與同志群體之間眾多連結的其中一例，這類連結的數量之多，絕非可以忽視。
本文將探討同志權益運動與MAP之間的歷史，並試圖釐清「酷兒」一詞在當今...
Mu is an umbrella organization for MAPs that has no official connection with MAP Camp. Following social media fallout over our prior press release and contact with media organizations, we issue the following response.
First of all, we are concerned that certain people have been labeled as responsible for hosting the event. Their personal information has been broadcast on social media, despite those individuals denying any association. We believe that such doxxing is dangerous, especially on an issue as sensitive as minor-attraction. People have been killed over accusations of "pedophilia", whether those accusations have been...
One of the key stories of the Olympics and its buildup has been the participation of Dutch volleyball player Steven van de Velde. Branded a 'child rapist' in the majority of news and social media articles, it is easy to assume that he forced himself upon an unwilling child. That is not the case.
In many countries - including the UK where the incident occurred - oral, vaginal, or anal sex with a person under a certain age is automatically treated as 'rape...
