Facts According to Jan

Jay Baskins, see HERE, tells us about this little thing called A FACTOID, which he defines as:

A statement of presumed fact that people believe to be true because they hear it repeated over and over

Does that sound familiar? Jay has an entire list of common factoids and he proceeds to dispel them one by one. So shall we.

Factoid #1:

The "pedophile" is set apart from most men because he finds children or adolescents sexually attractive.

Jay states that the ACTUAL fact is:

A study of randomly selected "normal" men at Kent State University (Hall, G. N., Hirschman, R, and Oliver, L. 1995) discovered that "20% of the current subjects self-reported pedophilic interest and 26.25% exhibited penile arousal to pedophilic stimuli that equaled or exceeded arousal to adult stimuli."

I don't know about you all but I've become rather weary of this continued FACTOID that keeps crawling out of pedovores mouths.

The result of this study WAS NOT that 25% of all men had a pedophilic attraction to children. The result was that these particular subjects had a higher than average arousability level. Meaning they could get turned on at the drop of a hat. In the authors OWN analysis of his study he stated various reasons, some of them being the high attrition rate when men found out about the penis straps they would have to wear all in order to get paid $40, to the fact that the author removed subjects from the study himself due to them not having a high enough arousability level to suit his purposes.

NOW, whether or not this was a valid and reliable study, is completely beside the point. The point is that the pedophiles, misinterpreted the results based upon that one sentence in the abstract and have used it so many times that they all believe it.

In other words Hall's study has become a FACTOID.


Now let us see who has bought into this.

Well we know that BlueRibbon the infamous Dad-beater and perver of his little brother's friends spread this around everywhere totally misinterpreting the data.

And now

Jan Kruska of 'I'm not a pedophile' fame is just eating this pro-pedo propaganda up. And even linking to it!


What is wrong with you Jan? Those pesky pedophiles just keep getting in your way, don't they? I, for one, wonder why.

Jan said

"Anyone claiming to be a pedophile or that having a sexual preference for pre-pubescent children is "normal" or "acceptable" or engages in that type of behavior is SICK. I would be the first one to string the bastard up by the balls and cut his throat."

So my question is WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO PROVE IT'S NORMAL?
