- I agree with you that "loving" and "having sex" are two
- different things.
-
- ...however, I don't think it is "OK" to be sexually attractive
- to minors. Murdering is illegal. Thinking about murdering other
- people is not illegal but it certainly is not OK. Being attracted
- to minors and murdering (both harmful if carried on) might be
- "normal" but they are sure not OK.
-
- And when people get together to "talk" about thinking about
- something harmful, they usually discourage that act not promote
- it. I THINK that is where NAMBLA is different than, say, AA.
