National Organization for Women

The National Organization for Women is an American feminist organization founded in 1966. Alex van Naerssen writes that in October 1980, NOW adopted "a resolution at its national convention condemning pederasty, pornography, sadomasochism, and public sex." The resolution had been presented by the Lesbian Rights Committee, whose accompanying position paper defined pederasty as "the involvement of children by adults in sexual activity" and said "it is well known that over 90% of all pederasts are heterosexual males who seek out young girls as their victims".
