Subject: Re: [K-list] Perpetuating the Cycle - or NOT
From: missy chicken
On 2001/05/13 08:30, missy chicken posted thus to the K-list: I know this is a difficult subject for me..... having been victimized.. But
I also KNOW that in todays society "oh i was abused" isnt a good enough
excuse for me!! i know a pedafile personally.... was a good friend of mine
for quite some time online..... He knew he had the urge to have sex with
children... He knew this was wrong so he kept himself as far from children
as possible.... He also had a problem with beastiality. so he stayed away
from animals too.... Now not to say as his solution was a good one.. The
point here isnt about the solution, the point is we all know right from
wrong. it has nothing to do with the grace of god or any other grace....
Pedafiles themselves KNOW how badly it hurt them to have it happen to
them... They also KNOW good and well its wrong. Thats why they have the fear
of getting caught!!!!!
At some point we all have to take responsibility for OUR OWN ACTIONS! Just
because one is abused during childhood DOESNT make it ok to push off blame
when we choose to continue the abuse..
The only true empowerment for victims of abuse is KNOWING it wasnt ok to
happen to me and it isnt ok to happen to anyone! I know that deep down
inside pedafiles truly dont want to hurt anyone.. especially little ones,
they actually love them. So then its time to stand up each and everyone of
them and find the inner courage to say NO MORE!!!!!!
Some are so far gone there really isnt much hope.... wich is seriously
saddening. For most though there is hope! Until they stop hiding and scream
out in there own heads NO MORE ABUSE it wont stop. as vicitms of abuse we
are the only ones truly empowered to stop the cycle and let the hopless ones
filter out... we cant fix them we cant kill them off... we cant force them
to stop there urges... best we can do is make sure the cycle ends with us
and we protect our own from the cycle of others....
WELL! i feel better!!!
