They Stole Every Pedo’s Lifelong Dream! D:

January 22nd, 2007 at 11:18 pm (Articles, Miscellaneous, Take)

This is it.

Every pedo must be screaming in agony, “Intellectual Property Theft!”. :P

You know, the scary thing is I’m thinking of the exact same thing. Does that make me a closet pedo? :o

Ahem. Okay, time to get serious on this.

I first stumbled upon this via this link in MSNBC (and a follow-up commentary) and I became stoked. My intial reaction was, “How could they do this to their own child?”. After all, every child has the right to do what he or she wants with her own body. But this puts benevolence in a bad light. I mean, even if she is mentally and physically disabled, she is still a thinking human being, and her parents have no right to intervene, no matter how much they reason that “this is for her own good”. How would they know what Ashley thinks of this? Their decision is not based on proper moral grounds. Tsk.

What do you think about it? Comments/flames/reactions are open.

And it looks like I’m not the only one who read/heard about this, or even mention it in passing.

    “She may have a lower risk of getting raped…”

    OH REALLY?

    Okay sorry, was that in poor taste?

    I was trying to type up a serious, coherent response to the story, but I’m so conflicted that it came out pretty much jumbled.

    I understand your confusion. This is a breach on “caring for the disabled.” :S

    Why couldn’t they take the common route, instead of altering a disabled one like Ashley’s anatomy so that “makes it more possible to include her in the typical family life and activities that provide her with needed comfort, closeness, security and love: meal time, car trips, touch, snuggles, etc.”? That the purpose would be “improving Ashley’s quality of life and well-being”. :/

    I am against the doctor’s compliance, as well. :V

    I’m actually in the ‘middle’ for this issue. I agree because its for her own good. But I don’t agree because it’ll actually make her more ‘weak’ I mean, it’ll make her too frail to face life’s challenges. It’s like removing a ‘difficulty’ setting in a fighting game! Making it too easy for her. She’ll just have to lie there and wait…

    Hehe, you guys sure already have a ’surge’, hehe. A pedo’s dream eh? :D Not to mention that she’s gonna have a full developed body like the doctors predicted (also from Ashley’s lineage.)

    Oh, and let’s not forget that she’ll still wrinkle into old age, which will make caring for her “pillow-sized” self even more difficult. :/ I think they haven’t considered the natural process of aging.

    Yeah, every pedo on the planet was flaming shocked. :lol: Doesn’t include myself, of course.
