Interesting article. However, I have thoughts about one paragraph in your article.
Commenting as I read
Then again, those theories fail to explain the pervasive ones, such as statutory rapes, necrophilia, or pedophilia. Those are better explained by the psychological theories as acts born out of disassociation with reality and environmental design.
A major debate in this day and age is whether American laws should treat "statutory rape" as a strict-liability offense or as an intent crime. What seldom ever seems to get talked about regarding this debate is the fact that sexually promiscuous and even reckless adolescents are taking wrongful advantage of the statutory-age-of-consent laws in more ways than society can imagine. The topic of statutory-rape laws here in the United States of America has become as controversial as gun-control laws.
Back in 2013, there was a tug of war among experts on how broadly the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) was going to define pedophilia. Up to that point in time, hebephilia had been nothing more than a social construct and had never been reclassified as a psychiatric disorder, and Dr. Raymond Blanchard and others like him were already talking about splicing it into the definition of pedophilia, which would have had serious consequences if these individuals had been successful at doing so.
American men are now looking overseas to find suitable wives inasmuch as the Me Too Movement has placed too many dangerous obstacles in their pathway for them to safely seek out an American woman to marry. It's a mad, mad world that we now live in, especially here in the United States of America.
