I am not implying its a developed fetish, but the mode of actuating their attraction can become obsessive.

Take train molestation for example, which in some ways is a feedback loop.

Some of those caught by police have confessed to doing it because of its prevalence in hentai and JAV films.

I'm sure for some the thrill of being caught is the objective, but for others it's the realisation that a quick grope can be plausibly denied on a crowded train.

It's the normalisation of expectation that its wanted, or will be wanted, which is what I'm trying to illustrate.

I believe morality exists and that it has an objective metric; wellbeing.

If you intentionally impair or damage the wellbeing of another, then you are being immoral.

What if I suck them out for you?

I'm going to play devils advocate, and claim that you are presupposing a legal technicality (medical definition of death) results in a corpse becoming property.

Moreover, I do not accept that it is inherently wrong to fuck other peoples couches, and if me or JD ensure no residue, or knowledge of our actions are made apparent, then it is okay.

Yep.

As I said, it's all about whether legally permitting a release valve for the (presumably) majority of pedophiles who might otherwise commit crimes, outweighs the risk of potentially encouraging a (presumably) smaller subset of risk prone pedophiles, who otherwise would not commit crimes.

I'll reiterate, my intuition is that it has a net harm reduction.

Regardless of this, there are other reasons not to criminalise it - there is a risk of making the content harder to find, pushing hem into more obscure online spaces, like the dark web. It is far safer to keep it above board, where it can be moderated, and controlled.

I'm sure there's a case to be made, and my intuitions map yours, as I remember another study suggesting that countries with legal access to sex workers reduces incidences of sexual assault.

However, we know of opposing psychological frameworks like the porn desensitisation pipeline, and seeking increasingly hardcore porn over time.

Thats not to imply that exposure to porn is turning people into pedophiles, but there are a subset of people who are predisposed to reckless behaviour, and that's not even mentioning the delusional plotlines hentai normalises about rape victims eventually loving it, and how those perspectives can influence thought patterns of those who are more suggestible.

Dude shut up just let me fuck the warm deer while god isn't looking.

The hard answer is: both

There are some people for whom such material would inspire actuating on their fantasies, and for others, act like a pressure release valve.

The real question is: in a utilitarian sense, does it reliably produce less suffering?

I love how the poster suggests giving the atheist a logical fallacy...

They sure did...

Multiple...

(Also an ethical dilemma is not the same thing as a fallacy)

Good name for a political party.

"Without god, what's to stop you from committing all the rape and murder you want?"

I already commit all the rape and murder I want, which is none.

I thought it was shoujo ramune
