(6,087 posts)Those are called pedophiles! And most likely to present themselves as heterosexuals in a heterosexual marriage. Priests, pastors, youth ministers, coaches or a trusted family member.
I and my gay friends like adults with adult bodies. As a matter of fact, all of the gay men I know like big, burly hairy men with big manly bodies and big, um, well you know.
THIS MAKES ME SICK!!!!!!!

Women are portrayed as inferior to men in the bible. One reason I reject christianity among many

(2,113 posts)Makes me think something big - involving someone big - is looming out there, ready to drop. And all of these accusations about "grooming," etc., are to desensitize everyone. Then, if/when it comes out, everyone will be so used to hearing the words "pedophile/pedophilia," that it'll just be another blip on the radar screen and nothing more.
I hate these people like poison. Because they are poison. Every fucking one of them.
