(Anonymous) 2012-08-25 03:13 am (UTC)(link)But on the chance you're not - OP, I'm not going to judge you because it's not my place to do that, and everyone has things that they're ashamed of, things they regret.
I just hope that you understand now WHY people make a big deal about CP, and why people can go to prison for viewing it.
The difference between drawn/written porn, and live-action, is that live-action porn involves real people. Now, adult porn is fine, because it involves adult actors. Maybe the actors are enjoying themselves, maybe not, but they're consenting and they're paid for their time. (This isn't to say that there's a dark side to the industry- I'm sure there's porn out there that involves people who weren't consenting or paid.)
CP is in a whole other stadium.
Those children you saw, in those photographs? They were real children. They were real, living human beings, like you and me. Maybe it's easy behind the screen of a computer and anonymity to brush that aside.
But they are real human beings. They have lives. They have families and friends. They have hopes and dreams. Maybe they want to be a ballerina when they grow up, or a star soccer player.
They didn't take place in those photos willingly or with the full understanding of what they were getting into. Fact is, child abuse by strangers is very rare. Child abuse by people they know is far more common. Often it's a family friend, a relative, a grandparent, a teacher, a nurse or a doctor, a babysitter, a clergyman, a police officer. People in positions of power who abuse that power to hurt the child.
One day they'll grow up, and they will have to live with the memories of that. They will have to live with self-hatred and the pain of betrayal by someone who they thought they could trust. And many of them won't be able to live with that burden.
People who view those photos are just as responsible as the people who took them. Because by viewing those photographs, they create an audience for it, and they are complicit in abusing the child.
OP, you have knowedlge now. Don't sit idly by. Use it to turn this around and do something good to prevent this from happening, and to protect your fellow human beings.
