I wonder about some people

Why is it that some people see sex in anything and everything?

I came across a post on an "anti-paedophile" blog recently that provides a prime example.

The writer was working herself up at a post on Boychat, here, in which a boylover described how he loved his Young Friend, who it seemed loved hugging and holding hands.

The "anti" decided that, despite a complete lack of evidence, the BL was just a hair'sbreadth away from forcibly raping the boy! Where do these people get their ideas? She said "the boy is not asking to be molested" - which of course is true, but there was no suggestion he was. She also said "he doesn't want you" - which is obviously untrue from the description.

I wonder what causes this obsession with sex and molestation? I have come across it before - usually in "anti" writings - and can't help feeling that these people really ought to see someone. In my experience, it would take a hundred paedophiles to generate as much sexual obsession as one "anti".

I suppose one should feel sorry for them really, if they see sexual overtones in such innocent activities as hugging or holding hands. I can honestly say I don't know anyone who can't do these without leading to something else. I do wonder how they behave in their day-to-day life - do they put skirts on the piano legs, too?
