Thanks. I hate politically correct language like this
It's not real, it was a joke made by 4chan that stuck. Nobody is actually using that term unless they're a pedophile
There are actual retards out in the wild that use the term to describe pedophiles unironically. No one likes them. Bully them.
The term is real, it's even used in scientific literature. The term possibly even predates 4chan, or maybe it's just a success on 4chan's part, successfully laundering a term into scientific discourse? It's hard to find too much solid evidence on the origin of the term. 4chan did seriously signal boost it with the whole "MAP Pride" thing though.
Sure, but CSAM is a real term and the same thing applies.
?
Are you just anti-acronym in general?
Anti-unnecessary terms. Changing "child porn" (or CP) to "CSAM" is a ridiculous, confusing, and unnecessary thing. And it takes effort away from meaningful action.
Making of a big deal about it is what takes away effort from meaningful action. Nobody is taking time out of their day over this issue but you. This is silly.
Its not real language.
Its some bullshit cooked up by internet trolls, and accepted and used by right wing propagandists, as the latest thing to use to try and paint gay people as pedophiles.
When, historically, we know the actual pedophiles are the ones falsely claiming gays are the danger to children.
It's inclusive of both pedophiles and hebephiles - that is, prepubescent vs. pubescent children.
So, it's got that going for it. Treating them both the same.
Unfortunately, it's also used to obfuscate the fact that a MAP is a pedophile/hebephile. Which is bad.
There are people who have messed up brains, who are attracted to kids, and hate themselves for it. They seek help (usually through lots of chemical treatments), and use the term MAP to separate themselves from the pedos. Unfortunately, pedos use the term MAP to hide the fact they're pedos, so... 🤷

Tell us you're not actually paying attention without telling us you're not actually paying attention
This is a lie meant to make pedophiles come off as sympathetic. They're ALL terrible and there is no distinction between one pedo and another. If there's anything that horrific instance should have shown anyone, it's that. Any pedo who claims they hate themselves for it and are getting therapy are lying to you.
Maybe actually read what's being said before blowing a gasket.
No. You are a horrible, horrific creature.
Yeah, I'm sure someone who won't put up with you trying to frame pedophiles in a positive light would be a monster in your eyes. Can't have anyone actually hold the pond scum you're protecting accountable in any meaningful way. How else would you fulfill your pathological need to feel needed?
You keep living up to your namesake and you're going to find yourself in a gutter with a crack pipe and an empty bottle of Jim Beam, dude. Seriously.
Guess your username checks out too
Boy, you really don't have any actual reading comprehension, do you?
Or you are a pedophile out here concern trolling protecting your fucked up brethren.
I'm sure you do, you fucking idiot.
To be fair, it is not politically correct language, actually it's language that's commonly frowned upon in all circles. But basically as long as the LGBT rights movements have existed with any level of mainstream visibility in America, there have been organizations like NAMBLA and the like that have been trying to piggyback off of them...
And it pretty much ends the same way, with the pedophiles being shown the door.
Incidentally this is what the early South Park episode about the National Association of Marlon Brando Look Alikes getting mad at NAMBLA (the irl NAtional Man Boy Love Association) for stealing their acronym is poking fun at.
