			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Let&#8217;s take a trip down shit-logic lane, shall we?</p>
<ol>
<li>Man molests pre-pubescent boy.</li>
<li>Therefore, man must be attracted to males.</li>
<li>Therefore, man is gay.</li>
<li>Therefore, all/most gays are child molesters.</li>
</ol>
<p>Now, of course we can all point out the obvious logical fallacy involved in traversing the gulf between steps 3 and 4, right?</p>
<p>If not, please don&#8217;t call me.  Ever.</p>
<p>Instead, I&#8217;m going to dwell briefly on the more interesting breakdown of the brain between steps 1 &amp; 2.</p>
<p>Oh wait, first, lets run the same logic train on a man who molested a little girl (which never happens, right?!):</p>
<ol>
<li>Man molests pre-pubescent girl.</li>
<li>Therefore, man must be attracted to girls.</li>
<li>Therefore, man is straight.</li>
<li>Therefore, all/most straights are child molesters.</li>
</ol>
<p>Oooo.  <em>It burns doesn&#8217;t it?</em> It should.  If not, pick up your phone &#8211; and don&#8217;t call me.</p>
<p>An average gay man, just like an average straight man, is attracted to people on the post- side of that wacky, sticky river of puberty.   The entrances just don&#8217;t completely overlap.   Hey &#8211; no harm, no foul eh?</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s get something straight:</p>
<p><strong>There is a huge gulf between pre- and post- pubescence.  You should not be sexually attracted to someone on the pre- side of that river<em>.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>If you are, you are psychologically, hormonally, biologically (ETC!) damaged and should be kept away from children.</strong></p>
<p><strong><em>THE END</em>.</strong></p>
<p>So please, TV ads and ignorant people in general, please shut the fuck up with the &#8220;protect the children from the gays!&#8221; bullshit.  Your logic is insulting, not to mention insulting.</p>
