Looking for Research

Lolicon sites are hands-down the best support places for me, with the exception of pedo hating places like Sankaku which are cesspools.

Everyone there has the same interest as you, not trying to gaslight you into thinking that porn is evil or you are and not going on and on about the virtues of lobotomy and castration (shots fired at VirPed). That just disgusts me, it disgusts me so much I can’t talk to them about problems at all, it is so uncomfortable and nauseous.

If you have a site that you think does a good job at moderation, please ask them if they would like to be part of our No Children Harmed program. We didn’t reach out to any of them yet.

Are you able to link the PDF?

There isn’t a PDF, we can make one if you want but the link above has all the info that would go into it.

PDF of the letter I meant. I think you said there was a PDF copy.

Oh! Sorry you’re right. Here it is.

Thanks for that. I wonder why they didn’t decide to publish this study. I’ve tried finding other similar studies, but this is really all there is

I think because it wasn’t really a study, it was a literature search. The study that needs to be done hasn’t been done yet. We’re trying to raise money for it and we are more than 10% there so far. https://prostasia.org/donations/research-fund/

Which one’s your favorite? How many have you visited recently?

How long have the donations been going on? I will donate some, as well. I hope the goal gets reached

Bumping because I found some articles that may be of interest.

I’m still looking to acquire access to these, though, judging by their abstracts, the findings ought to be of great interest to the Prostasia Foundation.
I’d purchase these myself, but I’m currently in a precarious financial situation.

Funnily enough, I remember some people on 4chan/8kun translating that Danish study into English.

Let me see if I can find the archive…

edit

Here it is! Best you’re gonna get: https://archive.vn/8o7vG

This is perfect! Thank you so much.

Anyway - I found this.
It’s not the most robust or “killing” literature, considering that it’s taken from a law and philosophy journal, but it certainly helps frame a convincing argument that no reasonable person would disagree with.

In this chapter, we ask three questions about pedophilia: (1) Is it immoral to be a pedophile? (2) Is it immoral for pedophiles to seek out sexual contact with children? (3) Is it immoral for pedophiles to satisfy their sexual preferences by using computer-generated graphics, sex dolls, and/or sex robots that mimic children? We argue that (1) it is not immoral to be a pedophile, (2) it is immoral for pedophiles to seek out sexual contact with children because of (and only because of) the expected harm to children, and (3) it is morally permissible for pedophiles to satisfy their sexual preferences in ways that do not involve any real children.

Found this! From Cambridge University.

Law review!

Abstract:
Pedophilia is a psychiatric disorder that is inter-related with but distinct from child sexual offending (CSO). Neural alterations reportedly contribute to both pedophilia and CSO, but until now, no study has distinguished the brain structural anomalies associated with pedophilia from those specifically associated with CSO in pedophilic men. Using high-resolution T1-weighted brain images and voxel-based morphometry, we analyzed the gray matter (GM) volume of the following 219 men recruited at four acquisition sites in Germany: 58 pedophiles with a history of CSO, 60 pedophiles without any history of CSO and 101 non-pedophilic, non-offending controls to control for the effects of age, education level, verbal IQ, sexual orientation and the acquisition site. Although there were no differences in the relative GM volume of the brain specifically associated with pedophilia, statistical parametric maps revealed a highly significant and CSO-related pattern of above vs below the ‘normal’ GM volume in the right temporal pole, with non-offending pedophiles exhibiting larger volumes than offending pedophiles. Moreover, regression analysis revealed that the lower GM volume of the dorsomedial prefrontal or anterior cingulate cortex was associated with a higher risk of re-offending in pedophilic child molesters. We believe our data provide the first evidence that CSO in pedophilia rather than pedophilia alone is associated with GM anomalies and thus shed new light on the results of previous studies on this topic. These results indicate the need for new neurobehavioral theories on pedophilia and CSO and may be potentially useful for treatment or prevention approaches that aim to reduce the risk of (re)offending in pedophilia.

Conclusion:
The present study substantiates the idea that CSO in pedophilia rather than pedophilia alone is associated with changes in GM integrity, particularly in the right temporal pole. The risk of (re)offending was associated with a GM reduction in the dorsomedial PFC/ACC. Both findings indicate that morphometric markers associated with CSO in pedophiles may be potentially useful for the treatment or prevention approaches that aim to reduce the risk of (re)offending in pedophilia.

Interesting article I found - from the UK of all places!

We have brilliant scientists, just a government that won’t listen to them.

I also found this too

We still need more research to affirm that lolicon/shotacon is completely harmless, since there is conflicting findings and conclusions. I don’t think it’s possible for it to be causal.

That’s the equivalent of stating that it’s morally permissible for anyone to satisfy their sexual preferences in ways that do not involve children.

I’ll explore this thread more thoroughly soon.
