MAP

A MAP (Minor Attracted Person) is an individual with a romantic or sexual attraction to anyone between the ages of 0-17. Being a MAP is not a choice, comparable to homosexuality. not comparable to homosexuality however, is the fact that usually MAPs have pedophilic disorder or OSPD (Other Specified Paraphilic Disorder), not all MAPs have these disorders though. There are several contact stances, which in this case are stances one has on contact between minors and adults. Pro-C, or Pro-Contact, means you support romantic and sexual contact between minors and adults, Non-Contact means you do not engage in romantic or sexual minor-adult contact (this does not affect your opinion on minor-adult contact), Anti-Contact means you either support romantic contact between minors and adults but not sexual ones, or you do not support any sexual or romantic contact between minors and adults whatsoever, Neutral-Contact means you are neutral on the matter, and Complex-Contact means your opinion on minor-adult contact is complex and cannot be defined by any of the previous stances listed. Disclaimer that being a MAP is not inherently harmful (nor is it illegal, in the states at least), its the choices you make that harm people.
