I consider forgiveness to be reserved for people who have impacted you directly. While this guy is horrible (and I am preparing my background check copies, again, for my school because I expect a note to come down the pipeline soon), what he has done hasn't DIRECTLY affected me.

I think of forgiveness more for friends, family, lovers.


So what about his friends then...are they supposed to forgive him??
Im sure his friends and family are struggling with that right this moment.

Don't be so sure he isn't atoning for it, or of changing his ways?


He ran away did he not? Intead of facing up to it and atoning for it he fled, tellingly enough back to the scene of the crime. Doesn't sound like he intends to atone or change his ways at all.

It's not only what I believe, isn't it just logic??



Initially you said that they were gay, then you changed it to gay and bi so you are obviously a little unsure of your thoughts on it.

The problem is that paedophillia is seen as devient much like homosexuality is so people think that they go hand in hand. One of the many problems facing the gay community is that of not bieng able to care for children because they are seen as being paedophiles by the public because of their sexuality.

This is quite and interesting thread on another forum. Have a read of it.

Simply ridiculous.

P.S. How is sexually abusing little boys NOT GAY?? You are not gay until they are legal??


Concerning your PS, because the same point about heterosexuality is not made when a pedophile abuses underage girls. It only seems to be relevant to some when it is a man abusing boys.

Well gay or bi it still means that they like males.

Obviously we will agree to disagree. I am really not that interested in the subject to read on it more.

Groth: "Mr. Pedophile, why do you sexually abuse boys? Why didn't you go to Itaewon? That's where many Korean gays go. You can find a boyfriend there."

Mr. Pedophile: "You are wrong on two things. First there are no gays in Korea and second, I am not gay (or bi Very Happy ) it just makes me feel young again to grab a little boy's willy."

Groth: "Well that's good enough for me. Seeing how you are of sound mind I am going to believe you. Do you mind if I write this up in my book?"



I'm not gay! (or bi)

I learned the hard way over the years that "Forgiveness" means "You have permission to do it again" in most people's minds. I don't give it easily anymore.


I sent a students to my co-teacher for swearing in class. When he said'
"I'm sorry" I just turned my back to him and ignored him.

Why would someone be accused of being gay if they abused someone of the opposite sex? I don't understand your point.

You obviously have logic and reading problems. I hope you have less than four months left. All Korea needs is more disinformation on homosexuality.

What, the same point that if a man abuses and underage girl he is hetrosexual? Why would emphasising the point the abuser is hetro. Maybe it is your explaining ability, not my understanding ability. I still have no idea what you are talking about.

I'll let someone else explain it to you if they want. Are you the one in the middle?

Rape is about power, not sex. Is having power over men gay?

100% about power not sex? I have no idea about the subject. Why wouldn't a hetro rape a female?

Man, some weird discussions are coming out of this.

A hetero would not necessarily rape a female because pedophilia is a completely different cateory than adult sexual orientation.

So a gay man who is also a paedophile abuses girls because thaqt is what he is into them is bisexual, hetrosexual or homosexual?

As another poster said paedophillia is very different to sexual orientation.

What about a man who likes to be taken with a stap-on by his wife/girlfriend. He doesn't copulate with other men. Is he gay or bisexual?

Strap-on, I think that is a bad example. Highly erogenous zones in that area regardless of whether you are a man or woman.

Female-male
In female-male anal sex, a woman stimulates her male partner in the rectum. Moreover, due to the proximity of the prostate gland to the rectum, it has been suggested that males may achieve greater satisfaction in this manner than females. According to AskMen.com, passive anal stimulation is "something that all men find relieving and absolutely delightful
