CRIME WITHOUT VICTIMS A book about paedophilia - Interviews with so-called "victims" of "child abuse," who give their candid reactions to supposedly "being abused".
The Trauma Myth (Book) Susan Clancy's book demonstrates that the "harms" that children supposedly suffer from engaging in sexual activity with older people/adults are actually, for the most part, iatrogenic in nature (that is, due to the treatment given by medical "professionals" to those who have "been sexually abused," or else the harms are sociogenic (caused by the attitudes of society towards sex) rather than being due to anything occurring during the sexual activity itself.
Harmful to Minors (book) Judith Levine shows that the lack of sex education, and society's attitudes, are harmful to minors -- not the actual sexual activity itself (though she irrationally considers certain kinds of sexual relationships "unacceptable" due to age differences, without citing research to back up her claims).
Whores of the Court: The Fraud of Psychiatric Testimony and the Rape of American Justice by Margaret Hagen reveals how expert psychological testimony is a total fraud, showing how the courts have increasingly embraced not a cutting-edge science but, instead, a discipline that represents a terrifying retreat into fantasy and hearsay; a discipline propelled by powerful propaganda, arrogance, and greed.
Childhood Sexuality: Normal Sexual Behavior and Development (book) This book explores several issues, including: what children ages two to six think or know about sexuality the ways that children learn about sexuality and procreation the process of body discovery among children what normal sexual behaviors to expect in children of various ages the importance of growing up in a positive environment the differences in sexual development between children of the same age and gender ways to get honest answers from children and parents about sexuality.
The War Against "Child Molesters" (c. 1989) (pamphlet)" contains advice to those under investigation, under arrest, or being tried on "child abuse" charges, and describes the ways the police abuse the one under investigation, arrested, or on trial, and also violate the constitutional rights of the young person who was the one supposedly "abused".
