These are my pages and you'retrespassing.</p><p>I love children. They're so amazing I think we would have had to invent them if they weren't abiological necessity. I love watching them growing up, developing from helpless little babies intominiature versions of ourselves. There's no reality-check like the logic of children.</p><p>Most of the stories within involve children and sex. Although fantasising about it is common andsome of my stories were fun to write, I do not condone sexual activity between adults and children,I can't understand why anyone would want to do it in real life, or what gratification they hope toachieve. Neverthelesspedophiles exist, and the literary works on my site (and they are literary works, however limitedtheir merit) are intended in some measure to attract them. If distraction through these stories saveseven one child from abuse, it will have been worth it. Even better if potential perpetrators aretempted to write their own stories because writing stories takes a lot of time andprovides a lot of distraction.</p><p>How can it be sensible that at one moment you're too young to read adult materialthen a split second later it's your birthday and suddenly you're old enough, especiallywhen different cultures disagree on what that age should be? I reckon laws are predominantlyfor the self-esteem of law-makers and a defence for law-enforcers devoid of common sense.You've probably already clicked abutton to say you're old enough and that it's legal for you to read the stories whereyou live and I certainly can't stop you.
