Comment Re:Do you know what "paedophile" means? (Score 1) 363
Oops forgot this Bri, the Australian police DID NOT say "that only 14.8% of child sex abusers in their country were even suspected to be paedophiles?"
I know the study to which you are referring and they didn't say that at all, I suggest you go actually read it instead of relying on friendly local pervert. It doesn't say that NOT AT ALL, it wasn't even a study to try to determine that and they say specifically within it that with the data they had available there was no way to determine it. You're grasping at straws.

Have you read those Bri? Along was about 70 or so other journal articles? Or the 19 research papers he's published? How about the 6 Grants he's received for research on sexual violence. Perhaps you question his:
SIGNIFICANT ACHIEVEMENT AWARD, given by the Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers
or perhaps even the, MASTERS & JOHNSON AWARD presented by the Society for Sex Therapy and Research
Or: NATIONAL AWARD, given by the International Conference on the Treatment of Sex Offenders
OR! DISTINGUISHED LIFE FELLOW of the APA (American Psychiatric Association)
Perhaps you, in your vast knowledge should go to all these people and explain to them why his work is not valid. ROFL yeah BlueRibbon....why don't you do that?
