Gay men need to talk straight about paedophilia; Rather than campaign
on the age of consent, it might silence anti-gay bigots if some gay men
spoke out against atrocities towards children; Julie Bindel Saturday March

Gay men need to talk straight about paedophilia; The protests about
Eminem's lyrics by gay rights activists have raised issues of homophobia
in the media. One way anti-gay bigots seek to poison minds against
homosexual men is to label them all child abusers. While this is clearly
an offensive generalisation, gay men need to ask themselves if they are
doing anything to fuel this argument. Julie Bindel - Guardian Unlimited

Canadian reports about Sharpe case
Two reports from Canadian Press. The first is legal, in greater detail
than the Reuters report sent in another posting. The second is an
interview with Sharpe himself. He seems in a bad way after all his
troubles. I'm a bit pushed for time personally, but I wonder if anyone
else on this list could track him down, maybe via his solicitor or
whatever, just to offer a little social support.

The joy of not having sex - yet, 26th January 2001
Just as every generation of teenagers acts as if it is the first to
discover sex, every generation of middle-aged adults acts as if it is the
first to discover that teenagers are having sex. Certainly the current
generation of middle-aged American adults is acting that way, since teen
sex has become something of a cultural preoccupation here.
The Washington Post ran a front-page story a year or two ago that
chronicled the sexual activities of a bunch of upper-middle-class
13-year-olds and reported that a bacchanal of blow jobs was taking place
behind the bike sheds.

Sexual horseplay lands girl in custody, January 31st 2001, Canadian
news item
An incident of apparent sexual experimentation among young girls has
landed a 12-year-old in secure custody for a year while she awaits the
outcome of her trial for sexual assault. The bizarre case has been quietly
unfolding in a Toronto suburb since the young defendant was arrested last
spring, three months after her 12th birthday. The two complainants, both
aged 11 at the time, claimed that she pulled their pants down during an
after-school play date at her foster home, briefly licking their genitals. |
