Thanks for specifying,i just realized a second before your last post,thanks...
Anyway,i just went on the links you gave me and realized why the paedophilia aspect in "little fears" has brought to such a dicussion..i don't know is you're american or not but it is true that america's puritan attitude has always condemed sex,especially when it regards minors (even sexually active minors)
I think we both agree on how ridiculous this is,especially in days vexed with fatal venereal diseases and the such...
The problem is that this american paranoia (That at regular intervals seems to infect europe for short periods as well)has created much confusion in minds already weak for themselves (american public).After all its only natural for a male to feel attracted to a young girl after that girl has reached puberty..youth means fertility and so our beastly minds are at work.
Latin and greek works are full of homoerotic scenes with young boys..i see nothing wrong in this as long as both parts consent....of course to americans EVERYTHING in this is wrong.
Pagan cultures have always lived in harmony with sexuality,no matter its forms,it is only in the giudaic-christian cultures that suddenly that which was glorified as a pleasurful and beatiful act of union is somehow condemed as the work of the devil.
This is ridiculous.
If people arent even able to accept this their not in the least going to accept children sexuality.Freud himself showed how the reproductive instinct throbs from the earliest ages and i myself remember how pleasureful it was as a seven year old to "caress" myself with bed sheets.Do you not?
Children are like those pagans,enjoying sexuality (though not thouroghly developed)freely without "wisdom" to condemn it (and i believe that it was a snake who gave that wisdom....).
Unfortunately though the pedophilia subject obviously disturbs me,you and the author of the article..otherwise we would not have lost so much time talking about it (even though we all consider it "sensation"),we would have just ignored it and enjoyed the gruesome atmosphere "little fears" does posess.Of course we got stuck on the "sex" chapter and that proves what hypocrites we all are.No matter how hard we try to free ourselves from normality.
The true sufferings of children are in war devastated areas of the planet as i already said (and i am glad that you find it so entertaining).
And as for the old people...i dread the day my youth shall wither and so i do my best to ignore them..
Yes,i know what you are thinking,you are right...
