![Sunriseforever is the author of this picture/Source: Pixabay](https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2019/09/20/05/25/girl-4490847_1280.jpg) There is this one video on YouTube that keeps popping up in my thumbnails. It's titled "The Real Causes of Pedophilia" from a Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse. Hmmm. Is she a close relative of the attorney Michael Morse? She has a Ph.D., although how much she uses her educational background remains to be seen. The name of her YouTube channel is the "RuthInstitute." At first, I didn't really want to do an article about it, because it came across to me as another rant that was meant to spew pedophile-panic propaganda that wrongfully demonizes all age-gap relationships in which teenagers become involved. In any event, you can watch the video for yourself down below and form your own opinions about it. Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse Insists That She Knows The Causes Of Pedophilia https://youtu.be/lyGqf7TcQ3M?si=6xMQqFa--qn-k6bw Now, instead of me picking apart everything that Dr. Morse states in her video, I'm going to make this one major point. Dr. Morse, fortunately, may not be another femi-Nazi like Shanley Kane, but she is still another clone of **[Marci Hamilton](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marci_Hamilton)**. That is not to say that Marci Hamilton is a bad person, but she is very one-sided and set in her ways when it comes to the topic of juvenile-justice-related matters. The elephant in the room here is that Dr. Morse fails to differentiate between real pedophilia and fake pedophilia in her rant insofar as her video gradually deteriorates into another form of pedophile-obsessed diatribe. I am equally as opposed to pedophilia as she is. However, I don't think that she does justice to her points and arguments when she implies that teenage sex is the same thing as child molestation, which it is not. Her first major flaw in her narrative is that she brings up the topic of the late Jeffrey Epstein. Now, I realize that there have been rumors floating around on the Internet that the late Mr. Epstein may have been involved in the kidnapping of Madeleine McCann; and if that is the case, then it would possibly warrant the late Mr. Epstein being clinically diagnosed as a pedophile in that that little girl was a toddler when she disappeared. Otherwise, the late Mr. Epstein never victimized minors that were any younger than 14 years of age, which would disqualify him from being a pedophile. The Fifth Edition of the *Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders* ("*DSM-5*") specifies that a pedophile is someone 16 years of age or older that is sexually attracted to a prepubescent child five or more years their junior and less than 13 years of age (less than 11 years of age under certain circumstances). Dr. Morse is supposed to be a Ph.D. She should have taken all of these facts into consideration before she posted her video. Moreover, most of what she presents in her video reveals that she is a right-wing warrior rather than an actual educator and scholar. Hmm. Where did she get her Ph.D.? From Liberty University? If so, that would explain everything. Dr. Morse brings up the subject of an Austrian psychiatrist named Vilhelm Reich. She apparently believes that this man was delusional in that he promoted outlandish ideas in his teachings about the Sex Revolution that involved child sexuality. Okay, Dr. Morse? I do have to admit that even though Germany and Austria have some of the best doctors in the world, their respective mental-health professions have always left so very much to be desired. The late Dr. Hans Asperger should never have received as much praise as he did when he was still alive, because he contended that child molestation victims were to blame for their own tragedies. Like Dr. Reich, he was from Austria. Nevertheless, Dr. Morse, why don't you bring up the topic of Dr. Richard von Krafft-Ebing? He was the Austrian psychiatrist that conceptualized pedophilia; and if this shyster had never existed and pedophilia had never been added to the medical books throughout the world, the world probably would have been so much better off than it is. While I can agree that child molestation is a bad thing, I also disagree that child molestation victims include sexually active teenagers that stray outside their peer circles in search of intimacy with older partners. Now, all the self-proclaimed child advocates are going to tell me that adults have the duly obligation to say "no" to these same sexually active teenagers. Well, it's not as black and white as that. We now live in an era of adult male spinsters who have never had girlfriends in their life, and those same adult male spinsters will be likely to gravitate toward middle-school and high-school girls inasmuch as they are not going to find their happiness in the arms of a 35-year-old single mother who has three kids by three different fathers. The Puritanical Establishment is simply not always right about age-related matters. Now, if anyone wants to argue that such a male spinster is a certifiable head case because he has never been in the arms of a female, then we delve into the argument over whether the mentally challenged have the right to their happiness. Society has no right to bash that man for refusing to allow himself to be absorbed into a make-believe world of age-appropriate perfection and wholesome purity. American society's quest for normality is more harmful than good. At the same time, I must give Dr. Morse credit where credit is due despite that I may disagree with much of what she says in her video. She did bring up the fact that United Nations officials have gotten caught committing heinous sex crimes against small children, and I think that everyone needs to pay attention to these news stories. The outrageous hypocrisy is that the United Nations is trying to make it illegal for 17-year-old girls to get married on their own volition, whereas whenever any United Nations peacekeeper gets caught sexually molesting a prepubescent child under 11 years of age, the United Nations always seems to have the perfectly lame excuse for justifying that culprit's actions. Otherwise, they completely deny it. I have no problem with Dr. Morse attacking the church in her video for covering up sexual abuse scandals, because Catholic church officials are constantly preaching abstinence to young people and, at the same time, they cannot seem to keep their hands off underage parishioners. They will demonize embryonic stem cell research as infanticide, but then they will usually do nothing to punish priests that harm small children. I do agree with Dr. Morse that parents have the right to be concerned about what gets taught in the public schools. When I was a kid, the biggest complaint about school boards was that they ignored parents' complaints about how they managed or rather mismanaged the public schools' curriculums, among other things. Dr. Morse shows various clips of an attorney named John Manly being interviewed. Apparently, this same attorney is similar to the late Andrew Vachss and Marci Hamilton in that he litigates civil actions against public schools that get caught up in sex scandals involving teachers and students. It would appear that Mr. Manly does something noble. However, the problem I begin to have with him is that he fails to differentiate between a scenario in which an adult sexually molests an 8-year-old child and a scenario in which a 16-year-old girl has a boyfriend that is slightly older than what her parents approve of. Both scenarios are worlds apart. On the other hand, it could very well be that Mr. Manly was talking about teachers having illicit relationships with 16-year-old students. If that is the case, I completely get it. Most parents don't send their teenagers to school to have sex with the faculty. At the same time, Mr. Manly and Dr. Morse both need to acknowledge that there are exceptions to every rule. The First Lady of France, Brigitte Marie-Claude Trogneux Macron, first had sexual intercourse with French President Emmanuel Macron when he was only 14 years old and she was 38 years old. She was his schoolteacher. Do Mr. Manly and Dr. Morse believe that the First Lady of France is a pedophile? According to the *DSM-5*, she would not qualify to be one. Then again, she was once in a position of power and authority over her husband when he was her student. Self-proclaimed child advocates will claim that perhaps the First Lady of France and others like her have the pedophile gene that can get passed down to younger generations. Oh, wow. Most of us have at least one Loretta Lynn in our ancestry. So does it mean that every person in the world is a pedophile? Ladies and gentlemen? If someone's narrative doesn't feel right, then it probably isn't right. I am not alleging that Dr. Morse is stupid. I merely believe that she is biased. Dr. Park Elliot Dietz has an impressive educational background as a forensic psychiatrist. However, the fact that he lacks ethical standards establishes the fact that he is a shyster and a charlatan. Now, I am not accusing Dr. Morse of being either one of those things. However, she is an older woman who needs to get all her facts straight before she goes on any kind of crusade or mission to save the children of the world. Dr. Judith Levine, Heather Corinna, Russell Christopher, Kathryn Hope Christopher, and Lenore Skenazy could all five teach her a thing or two about pedophilia and child sexual abuse. As it stands, the United States has the most ridiculously high statutory ages of consent in the world. Our sex laws pertaining to juveniles are oppressive and leave very little or no room for nuances. Parents have been indoctrinated to believe that their 14- and 15-year-old daughters are so much better off with boys their own age than with adult boyfriends, when nothing could be any further from the truth. You only have to look at the disgraceful way that teenage fathers treat the underage mothers of their babies to know this for a fact. Below are two clips from the movie titled *Fifteen and Pregnant* that show such reprehensible behavior. Fifteen-Year-Old Pregnant Girl Confronts Her 16-Year-Old Cheating Baby Daddy https://youtu.be/Gp437H1HQUo?si=YN9hbOY4r_LdxTGV The video above is supposedly based upon a true story. It's a good reason why deadbeat teenage fathers should be drafted into the military once they turn eighteen years old here in the United States. It only gets worse. Below is another clip from that movie. After A 15-Year-Old Girl Gives Birth, Her 16-Year-Old Ex-Boyfriend Brings His New Girlfriend To The Maternity Ward https://youtu.be/_aD5lWydh_0?si=4OYF9QTSsDjg5yro Can a deadbeat teenage father get any tackier than this? He had the audacity to bring his new girlfriend there too, when his ex-girlfriend probably doesn't even want that hussy near their newborn child. Deadbeat teenage fathers like him are the face of justifiable patricide. That is, their love children usually grow up hating them. The movie titled *Fifteen and Pregnant* may be nearly two decades old, but it is still a timely film today. Here is my point. When Crystal Guyer Koso became pregnant at the age of 13 with 21-year-old Matthew Koso's baby, Matthew did the right thing by marrying her and supporting her and the child back in 2005. The authorities and the court system treated him despicably toward the end. On the other hand, deadbeat teenage fathers that are still minors get away with every indignity that they can inflict upon the underage girls whose lives they ruin. It's all because of pedophile-panic propaganda. Because a 16-year-old boy who knocks his 15-year-old girlfriend up and then goes sour on her has an "age-appropriate" relationship with her, he gets a free pass to behave however callous he wishes to do so; whereas a man over 20 years old who gets a girl that young pregnant can do everything to prove his decency to the world, and society will still crap all over him here in our nation. Why are people like Dr. Morse so blind to this same travesty of justice? American statutory-rape laws are not too lenient. They're way too harsh; and I am sick and tired of people pretending that all age-gap relationships that teenage girls younger than 18 years old get involved in are a form of pedophilia and child molestation, because they are not so. I don't deny that pubescent and adolescent girls can fall into toxic relationships with older adult men. However, the fact that there exist non-exploitative age-gap relationships between teenage schoolgirls and adult men doesn't make the parents of these deadbeat teenage fathers look very good in that these same parents don't ever seem to give much support to their sons' underage pregnant girlfriends in any way, shape, or form. ![BiancaVanDijk is the creator of this image/Source: Pixabay](https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2022/04/01/08/35/lonely-7104345_1280.jpg) I'm equally as anti-pedophile as Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse is. However, I don't think that she is going to accomplish anything positive for society if she doesn't get the definition of pedophilia completely right. Too many innocent people are being caught in the crossfire of Dr. Morse's puritanical mission. She's more about waging war against sex than she is about protecting children from harm. She needs to differentiate real pedophilia from fake pedophilia. Here in the United States, female teenage juveniles are being locked up on contempt-of-court charges merely for refusing to testify against their older boyfriends in frivolous and malicious statutory-rape trials and the likes. Judges are sending minors as young as 12 years old to adult correctional facilities to fall prey to violent career criminals. For this reason, we need to make prison rape a capital offense punishable by the death penalty. The *Coker v. Georgia* ruling is an abomination to the institution of judicial adjudication. It is long overdue for the Supreme Court of the United States ("SCOTUS") to overturn it once and for all. Unlike what Dr. Morse may contend, I don't believe that segregating adolescent girls from adult men in romantic relationships is going to turn our nation into a better society than it is. If Dr. Morse really wants to crusade for the rights and protection of children, she should campaign to get elected officials to stop judges from locking minors up in adult correctional facilities. Dr. Morse should also fight to reform the inheritance laws throughout our nation and convince elected officials to make it illegal for abusive parents to cut their own offspring out of their will under any circumstances in every U.S. jurisdiction. The reason that the United States has such a major problem with poverty and homelessness is probably, for the most part, because abusive parents have psychologically damaged their own kids and then have disinherited them as a form of financial abuse. Dave Ramsey sitting on his fat, ultraconservative backside and talking as though it is all justifiable and normal is not going to set our nation onto a healthy trajectory. If anything, it will lead to the downfall of our civilization. **This article is copyright-protected.**
