I actually write extensively about my own mistakes and failures. It’s a lot to assume that I’m judging someone else from a presumed position of superiority.
In fact, the entire time of your argument is very strange to me. Child abusers should not be a spectrum that “we all wander down sometimes.” It should not be a situation like “judge not lest ye be judged.” Child abuse is actually very simple. The acts which constitute child abuse are laid out very clearly in the laws of every country I know of, and the UN.
Requesting a child stick their tongue in your mouth, if the child had done it, would be a crime, in my country.
There’s not a ton of international disagreement on this.
The Dalai Lama himself did not defend his actions by calling them a Tibetan tradition, he called it a “practical joke.”
Which is the same language a long line of harassers have used to justify slapping their secretaries’ asses or grabbing the breasts of their neighbors’ kids.
So frankly-I’m not sure what you’re personally afraid to be judged for. I’m a little worried what you might have done to some poor kid.
I know the things I’ve done. I know what I should be ashamed of and why.
I absolutely have the right, as a child abuse survivor, to judge others who abuse kids.
