I can hear a loud " NO ", from the top of many adults who think its innocent fun and these little girls look like princesses. But the last time I check a princess wore modest apparel. And their beauty came within and was seen through their character.

I took a risk typing in phrases like " little miss perfect pageants photos ", little miss sunshine pageants " and "child pageant photos".

Do you know if I was a man and the police took my pc, they'd charge me with child pornography and call me a pedophile, for visiting websites with photos like these.

I stop wondering what is right because the moral scale has tipped and the world itself is confused.

The devil is very smart, he knows the only way to make someone a drug addict is to keep feeding them. Making sure drugs are readily available. It's no longer their choice because Satan is the ring master, putting the people in place and creating an atmosphere so this weak individual have to submit .

A person is not born a pedophile or sex offender, but a seed must be planted and my question is....can kid pageants be the water needed for these sexual demons to grow. Is it possible that what seem innocent can actually be a scheme from the enemy.

Does kid pageants promote child pornography ?
Are we giving these mentally sick pedos a free peep show, when we let these little girls paint their faces to look like adults, dance provocative on stage and wear clothes revealing their innocent flesh.

Never saw a pageant...do a youtube search, see the glitz, the glam, the tears and attitude of these little princesses and sunshines. And their overbearing mothers.

Nice post Risen1.

My opinion is yes, but no.
I'm no psychologist, but here's my thoughts..

To the issue of whether a person has that seed planted to become a pedophile,.. I'd have to say not neccessarilly. At it's core, a pedophile isn't wanting sex ..as much as love. Since they are an adult (for just the sake of this thread), their actions are of an adult nature. That is, they feel love thru sexual contact, and are looking for that feeling of validation thru the same sex of the one from whom they did not receive it from, while growing up. As well to the issue is a coward on the inside, who prays on whom he feels he can control.

A free peep show.. yes, unfortunately.
It angers me the level to which our country has devolved, and there seems to be no bottom..!??

And robbing thier innocence is exactly what the enemy is targeting.

God bless Risen1,
LoJ





ps. have you put away that shotgun by the back door :giggle:
 
Thanks for the response.
I expected more replies, but praise the Lord because one is better than none.


As for the shot gun...you're gonna scare folks away, its a water gun

I say an unequivocal YES!

YES again! My daughter said she received a flyer from the Atlantic Super store here last week, that was promoting their new line of clothing. She said she was absolutely shocked at several pages of underage girls in very seductive poses advertising young girls under garments. Now that flyer went into every mailbox in the city. What are these 'advertisers' thinking, and why would any parent allow their young daughters to be exposed this way? We live in world where the depraved minds of the Fathers and Mothers of these children do not seem to be able to see they are allowing the 'industry' (and I wonder if the many of these 'industries' are being led by pedophiles themselves) to corrupt thier childrens minds, and steal their innocence. It teaches them nothing more than how to advance in this world, using thier booties, and not their brains (pardon the expression)

At it's core, a pedophile isn't wanting sex ..as much as love.

I have to disagree with this. I'm no psychologist either, but my own encounters with, and knowledge about pedophiles, sounds a resounding NO to your argument. Pedophiles, at the very core of themselves, are about nothing more than sinful and lustful desire, and satisfying that lust at any cost to themselves or their innocent victims. If you consider that many pedophiles are married men, who molest and rape their own children, and would do the same to every child they could have free contact with, then nobody will ever convince me, the root of their desire is to be loved.

Since they are an adult, their actions are of an adult nature.

Where can you site this evidence?

If you consider that many pedophiles are married men..




Here's mine:

Child molestation and pedophilia occur far more commonly among homosexuals than among heterosexuals on a per capita basis, according to a new study. "Overwhelming evidence supports the belief that homosexuality is a sexual deviancy often accompanied by disorders that have dire consequences for our culture," wrote Steve Baldwin in, "Child Molestation and the Homosexual Movement," soon to be published by the Regent University Law Review.

"It is difficult to convey the dark side of the homosexual culture without appearing harsh," wrote Baldwin. "However, it is time to acknowledge that homosexual behavior threatens the foundation of Western civilization – the nuclear family."

In her thesis – also written for the Regent University Law Review – Dr. Judith Reisman cited psychologist Eugene Abel, whose research found that homosexuals "sexually molest young boys with an incidence that is occurring from five times greater than the molestation of girls. …"

Abel also found that non-incarcerated "child molesters admitted from 23.4 to 281.7 acts per offender … whose targets were males."
"The rate of homosexual versus heterosexual child sexual abuse is staggering," said Reisman.
"Abel’s data of 150.2 boys abused per male homosexual offender finds no equal (yet) in heterosexual violations of 19.8 girls."



Here is another:

>Sex with children is "free" and "daring"

Sex with subteens implies freedom of action with impunity. It enhances the pedophile's magical sense of omnipotence and immunity. By defying the authority of the state and the edicts of his culture and society, the pedophile experiences an adrenaline rush to which he gradually becomes addicted. Illicit sex becomes the outlet for his urgent need to live dangerously and recklessly.
The pedophile is on a quest to reassert control over his life. Studies have consistently shown that pedophilia is associated with anomic states (war, famine, epidemics) and with major life crises (failure, relocation, infidelity of spouse, separation, divorce, unemployment, bankruptcy, illness, death of the offender's nearest and dearest).

It is likely - though hitherto unsubstantiated by research - that the typical pedophile is depressive and with a borderline personality (low organization and fuzzy personal boundaries). Pedophiles are reckless and emotionally labile. The pedophile's sense of self-worth is volatile and dysregulated. He is likely to suffer from abandonment anxiety and be a codependent or counterdependent.

Paradoxically, it is by seemingly losing control in one aspect of his life (sex) that the pedophile re-acquires a sense of mastery. The same mechanism is at work in the development of eating disorders. An inhibitory deficit is somehow magically perceived as omnipotence.

>Sex with children is a reenactment of a painful past

Many pedophile truly bond with their prey. To them, children are the reification of innocence, genuineness, trust, and faithfulness - qualities that the pedophile wishes to nostalgically recapture.

The relationship with the child provides the pedophile with a "safe passage" to his own, repressed and fearful, inner child. Through his victim, the pedophile gains access to his suppressed and thwarted emotions. It is a fantasy-like second chance to reenact his childhood, this time benignly. The pedophile's dream to make peace with his past comes true transforming the interaction with the child to an exercise in wish fulfillment.

>Sex with children is a shared psychosis


The pedophile treats "his" chosen child as an object, an extension of himself, devoid of a separate existence and denuded of distinct needs. He finds the child's submissiveness and gullibility gratifying. He frowns on any sign of personal autonomy and regards it as a threat. By intimidating, cajoling, charming, and making false promises, the abuser isolates his prey from his family, school, peers, and from the rest of society and, thus, makes the child's dependence on him total.

To the pedophile, the child is a "transitional object" - a training ground on which to exercise his adult relationship skills. The pedophile erroneously feels that the child will never betray and abandon him, therefore guaranteeing "object constancy".
The pedophile stealthily but unfailingly exploits the vulnerabilities in the psychological makeup of his victim.
 
You would think with all these " thesis" and stuff, they'd be able to fix the problem.
All these studies just give these "people" a free pass into mental hospitals.

Non of the above profiles fit every pedophile. The main purpose is sex, all that psychological stuff varies with each individual.

There are many ways to show love to a child without raping them.

The relationship with the child provides the pedophile with a "safe passage" to his own, repressed and fearful, inner child

They mean inner demon, not Child cause God don't make ugly.
 
I say an unequivocal YES!

Yes it's really sad, and those flyers would have made me feel very uneasy.

Thanks for sharing.
 
"At it's core, a pedophile isn't wanting sex ..as much as love"

That's the same as saying rape is about love. That at it's core, the rapist just really wants to be loved. That's why there's the planning and the predatory behavior? Pedophiles are predatory people. They're not naive. They know what's wrong. They know it damages. But choose to do it anyway. How can that be about love? Seems to me that the orgasm is the ultimate goal.

And yeah, I've heard that pedophiles frequent the child pagent sites, but don't know based on anything solid. But the images are obviously sexualizing children. So it would make sense. Don't know if it would do anything to lessen pedophilia, though, if they took away child pagents.

Lion_of_Judah - after your last post, do you still think it is about love, and not sex?

Oh brother..............



Context, context, context...




Never mind..

..if no-one is able to discern the motive, which leads to the behavior, shown in the two articles.



Trust me when I say ..I have no warm fuzzy compassion for anyone who abuses a child.



PARTICULARLY A CHILD MOLESTOR/PEDIFILE!


Seems to me that the orgasm is the ultimate goal.

Did you even read, let alone try to understand, what the two articles were citing about the psychological make up of a pedifile or molester??

but don't know based on anything solid

Really????


The context of my comments are in context to this thread!
 
At the core of eveyone's psychological makeup is the need for love. That does not mean it is the driving force behind destructive behavior. Even in people who have been hurt and damaged and confused.
 
Kid pageants are shallow in nature and yes, damaging to children, and only an encouragement for pedophiles to lust after children.

I think kid pageants are wrong. I am transplanted here in the southeast U.S. and the times I have brought up in coversation I have been hushed.

How can God approve of this?
 
"God was testing my character & faith"

For what it's worth..


'God was testing my faith', says Miss California after Perez Hilton calls her a 'dumb *' in gay marriage row

By Mail Foreign Service
Last updated at 3:17 PM on 21st April 2009

A beauty queen who told America that marriage should be between a man and a woman says God was testing her faith in the row.
'I have no regrets,' Carrie Prejean, 21, said today about the question that may have cost her the Miss USA crown and led to her being called a 'dumb *'.

'By having to answer that question in front of a national audience, God was testing my character and faith. I'm glad I stayed true to myself,' she told Fox News today.

Prejean, a blonde student was one of the favourites to win the Miss USA title at the pageant held on Sunday at the Planet Hollywood hotel and casino in Las Vegas and shown live on TV.
Having negotiated earlier rounds of modelling in a swimsuit and evening gown, she was down to the final 15 and had to answer a single question from one of the panel of five judges.
Prejean picked celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, who is openly gay and calls himself 'queen of all media'.
Hilton asked her: 'Vermont recently became the fourth state to legalise same-sex marriage. Do you think every state should follow suit. Why or why not?'
Prejean paused for a moment before replying: 'Well, I think it’s great that Americans are able to choose one or the other. We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite marriage.'
She continued: 'And you know what, in my country, in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman.

'No offence to anybody out there, but that’s how I was raised and that’s how I think it should be - between a man and a woman. Thank you very much.'

Unimpressed to say the least, Hilton promptely described Prejean as a 'dumb *' on his blog.
He went on to describe her as having 'half a brain' and said he would have stormed onto the stage and ripped off her tiara if she had won.
There was speculation that the reply had cost her the Miss USA crown, as she was named runner-up with Miss North Carolina, Kristen Dalton, winning the title.
But today Prejean was sanguine about the controversy, saying she was asked the question 'for a reason'.

'That made me the real winner of the night.'
Of Hilton, she said: 'I knew he was controversial, and so was the question.

'Out of all the topics I studied up on, I dreaded that one, I prayed I would not be asked about gay marriage.
If I had any other question, I know I would have won.'


This is not the whole article.

Blessings, LoJ
 
Prejean is to be respected and honored for all that she said and did. She is full-grown, however, and it was her choice to be involved in the American pageant.

It's a different situation with mothers putting small children into pageants.

That is a great article, though, and I do admire Ms. Prejean. I pray God will truly bless her, and I know that He has reason to bless her for what she did.

Hi Sister in Jesus....I read your words and accept your judgement. Reading I can see that I know nothing about this........You have made me aware.
 
i dont think so

i think it allll depends on what the person wears...there should be a dress code but i guess not lol
 
i voted no.. after reading the thread, it's an absolute YES. kid pageants shouldn't be prmoted. thnx brothers and sisters for imparting God's wisdom

grace to you
 
I don't see anything wrong about pageants, except that the little girls are getting dolled up like they are 25 years old! I hate seeing any girl, under the age of 14, wearing makeup, it just doesn't look right to me, for them to act all grown up at such young ages.

Some look like they get their hair dyed/colored, wearing makeup, wearing hairspray at such a young age, fake spray on tans, and act rudely (sometimes) towards their parents. The whole point in BEING a child, is being all natural (natural beauty).

I have seen that show "Toddlers & Tiaras" and I'm appalled at how they doll up these little girls! They should look like little girls in these pageants, not like they are grown already.... Seems like a great place for a pedophile to be stalking at.

YES IT DOES. Where else can these Pervs legally "look" at little ones acting as adults. Its an open door to these people. Im in TX where its BIG and people hate it when I say this but your giving permission for these pervs to PERV your child.:secret:

as a child they should act as children or they'll get negative adult results "as a child I act as a child..."

Plus as a teacher and counselor I see how this can screw up a childs perception of SELF!!! When these kids compete to be little miss perfect 'anything and grow up to be less than perfect; hair loss, boyfriend loss, physical deformed, learning disorder, ANYTHING... its a door to depression, suicide and other issues that could have been avoided.
