Re: The 'P' word came up with my new friends

I will be sure to do it in a way that shows I have a good sense of humor about myself and that it's really no major issue that I happen to find teen girls attractive.

Um, actually Dissy, the only reason these women won't assume you find teenage girls attractive is if they think you're homosexual. Trust me on this. Assuming no major mental defects, all women know that virtually all men find teenage girls attractive. Really.

As a hebephile, you have something of an advantage there. They might be somewhat concerned about your friendship with the likes of us (which, btw, we appreciate), but they won't consider that a reason not to trust you with a 7 year old girl unless you make them think it's a reason not to trust you.

Now, if you give them other reasons not to trust you, that's another thing, but you've never struck me as the grossly negligent or violent type.

Otherwise, you got some good advice from JD and others.
