We Don’t Pick Our Prisons

Most of us are stuck behind the walls of our own, private prisons. Some of us are stuck with physical limitations that we were powerless to avoid and that can’t be fixed. Some of us struggle financially all our lives and have no realistic prospect of ever escaping poverty. Some of us struggle with addictions. Some of us are short, fat, irredeemably stupid and ugly.
Most of us did little or nothing to pick our prisons. We just woke up to the reality that we are stuck with a condition or a predilection we wish we didn’t have.
Driving home from work one day I heard a news report about a man convicted on numerous counts of indecency with a minor. My reaction was typical: What a disgusting slime ball! Lock his ass up and throw away the fucking key!
Then I asked myself, “How does anyone become a pedophile in the first place?” What can possibly be so sexually alluring about a child? The idea was totally incomprehensible to me.
Of course it was incomprehensible to me. A sexual interest in children is not a problem I struggled with (at least not since I myself was a child). But if, as an adult, I did find children sexually interesting, while I might manage to avoid acting upon my unlawful desires, I probably wouldn’t be able to erase them.
What if miscegenation were still illegal? Even if I could manage to leave women who were not of my race alone, I couldn’t stop desiring them!
That’s when I realized what a horrible prison pedophiles find themselves in. Even if they manage to conform their behavior to the laws, they won’t be able to silence their desire for youngsters.
Pedophiles are damned if they do and damned if they don’t!
What a horrible prison for anybody to be stuck in.

However, any adult cat that would abuse a little cub deserves treatment worse than a zebra. Such are the sacred beliefs of the council! ROAR!!!
I’ll have you know that I have more hair on my ass than Phil Spector had on his head on the day of his infamous “wall of hair” court appearance!

If I was King Richard for a day, I would have every convicted pedophile surgically castrated. This would serve the dual purposes of virtually eliminating recidivist behavior and serve as an even greater deterrent for those who are trying to control their urges.
My only point here is “there, but for the grace of a god I don’t believe in, go I.”
Twas a sad story for sure. He knew he would be in this prison forever.
You got it!
That was my sole point ...what an awful predicament to be in!
After he was at home I confronted him about the letter/novella. He was embarrassed but claimed it was all fiction. He was just trying to describe the feeling. I have no way to check on it and he is now paralyzed from the waist down so doesn’t present a danger to others. As the tv show asks, “What would you do?”
I’ve just backed away from this strange situation.
Why are many 15 to 17 year old hookers the top earners? How many of us can tell the difference between a mature 16 year old and a “young looking” 20 year old.
I was a regular at a club where one of the more popular dancers frequently wore her “schoolgirl” outfit, could pass for 15 when she was 26, had smaller breasts than I, and was a top earner more often than not?
IMHO this is a topic where many need to give a great deal of introspection. As the age of onset of puberty is dropping, when many middle school students are “experimenting”, when sex education is a factor in a dramatic drop in teen pregnancy rates, more & more high school students have had sex, what’s it all mean for pathetic losers?
Excellent points.
