Warning SHITTY POST

What's up with them owning at practically everything..

I'm not much of a Olympics guy, but have they always been this strong, or have they just fucking Iloveoov'ed in?...

On the topic.

I'm not really excited about the Olympics, and what's with China trying to make themselves look like fucking saints? They are far from it...

You think any of the Chinese were threatened with punishments if they did not get Gold?.. I'm sorry if this is offensive, I just can't get it off the back of my mind.

Didn't watch it, but when I was flipping through channels sometimes I saw Discovery Channel advertising their own program "8-8-8" apparently showcasing how the Chinese are totally psyched about the Olympics and some are dedicating their lives to winning them medals. More motivated by threats they could not be, was the impression I got - they were already all-in.

They are in the events they have been typically strong in, but choked earlier... the later events are ones that USA will excel in (running, more Phelps, etc.)

whenever i look at the standings, i just feel really sorry that all their athletes were taken away before they could even talk to train for the olympics.
The results are evident.

What is the cut-off for being a paedophile anyway?
Since age of consent here is 16, and lower in other places.
I find it hard to believe one's pedo-status is dependant on their geographic location.
No I'm never serious.

WTF? It's not like I'm a 35 year old man with horrible back hair who wears wife beaters everyday. I barely turned 19.

Pedophile. Your image has been cemented.

Actually, nothing wrong with pedophilia. I challenge anyone to prove otherwise.

I LOLED

But seriously. I didn't know they were 16, and I thought the youngest they could be was 18. Doesn't matter regardless. You people can say what you want, but those.. Romanian chicks.. they aren't girls.. they are women.

Women who can do things that your girlfriend could spend of the rest of her life wishing she could do..

I'm teary eyed.

Haha, I bring this exact point up occasionally. It's about the same as blaming someone for being gay.

I guess it's possible to be attracted to little girls (or boys), like that guy was attracted to cars and had sex with them, but children are more averse to being raped than cars.

So I guess if all you do is yank it to chibi porn or something, that's kind of legal.

Edit: What I'm saying is, pedo-philia is kind of not worth having your penis chopped off, but pedo-rapia is.

Why are we talking about rape?

Females don't like being raped. You heterosexuals ought to have your genitals chopped off.

(Hope no one misconstrues my previous statement as a statement that I'm gay - I'm just trying to illustrate why talking about rape is stupid.)

Yeah we should, if we rape. However, I can think of no circumstance where a 44 year old man and a 6 year old child having sex is not rape.

If pornographic material depicts a minor, then it's not legal :p

BTW I agree, why are you talking about rape? We're talking about pedophilia and homosexuality XD

OK I'm going to clear up my points and then cease this discussion, since it can't possibly go anywhere and is my fault. I reserve for you the right to disagree

By chibi porn I mean animated / CGI or otherwise simulated, which is still illegal some places but some not.

I brought up rape, because there can be consent between similarly aged homosexuals having sex with each other, or even dissimilarly aged ones so long as they're both above the age of consent.

In the U.S., that would be 18. Obviously an 18 year old can consent to sex. I've heard of it being as low as 14 in some places, which is kind of redic IMO but it's the law, and I guess if they consent they consent.

However, pedophilia is the love of children, which I personally assume to mean children who have not started puberty (maybe 4 - 12 years old). I brought up rape because I take pedophilia to mean "the desire to have sex with children." I don't think an adult and a child of this age can engage in consensual sex, because

1) Children at that age probably have an imperfect understanding of sex
2) They can be pressured into it but it can cause psychological damage
3) Their bodies are not meant for it and it can cause physical damage

So the point is, saying things like "There is nothing wrong with pedophilia" or "pedophilia is equivalent to homosexuality" is entirely wrong in my opinion because pedophilic acts will invariably hurt someone in some way, while homosexuality does not.

However, if you are affected by pedophilic thoughts, then thinking them doesn't hurt people, so in that respect I agree that it is not "particularly" bad, though certainly weird in my opinion.

So bottom line, I brought up rape because there is no way for a pedophile to engage in their love with another person unless it is rape, while for a homo- it is. Maybe an adult could dress up like a kid, wear braces and glasses, and have an ugly hair cut with bangs. I guess that would work and be OK to, though probably less preferable to a pedophile.

I think even in the USA simulated porn is illegal if it depicts minors, but that's neither here nor there

I brought up rape, because there can be consent between similarly aged homosexuals having sex with each other, or even dissimilarly aged ones so long as they're both above the age of consent.
The question is... why do you bring up the issue of consent? A typical heterosexual man can rape a woman the same way a pedophile can rape a child or a homosexual man can rape another man. Whether or not there is potential for sexual acts that aren't rape is not relevant. You are punishing the group that is at a disadvantage, and for no other reason?
In the U.S., that would be 18. Obviously an 18 year old can consent to sex. I've heard of it being as low as 14 in some places, which is kind of redic IMO but it's the law, and I guess if they consent they consent.

I'd understand if you brought up rape when discussing "having sex with children" but not in this case specifically.
I don't think an adult and a child of this age can engage in consensual sex, because

1) Children at that age probably have an imperfect understanding of sex
2) They can be pressured into it but it can cause psychological damage
3) Their bodies are not meant for it and it can cause physical damage
Well to be fair, 1 and 2 are true for adults also... and you just need to draw the line somewhere like the way the USA says the consenting age is 18 or whatever... 3 is interesting, because nowadays kids can be sexually capable of having sex as early as 10-12 (increased nutrition results in earlier development)

So the point is, saying things like "There is nothing wrong with pedophilia" or "pedophilia is equivalent to homosexuality" is entirely wrong in my opinion because pedophilic acts will invariably hurt someone in some way, while homosexuality does not.
I don't agree. There's nothing wrong with greed if you never act greedy, or do other bad things in response.

However, if you are affected by pedophilic thoughts, then thinking them doesn't hurt people, so in that respect I agree that it is not "particularly" bad, though certainly weird in my opinion.
Again I don't feel like you've provided an actual reason for it being bad, and I don't think you 'opinion' is really warranted :p

So bottom line, I brought up rape because there is no way for a pedophile to engage in their love with another person unless it is rape, while for a homo- it is. Maybe an adult could dress up like a kid, wear braces and glasses, and have an ugly hair cut with bangs. I guess that would work and be OK to, though probably less preferable to a pedophile.
Uh, I won't respond to this.

gymnastics has always been a chinese strong point. synchronized swimming is also one of their strongest. swimming on the other hand isnt, usually american/european and maybe australian. basketball goes to america IMO. but yeah, gymnastics = china wins, no doubt.
