'''Beyond the Plus''' (Bt+) is a Seattle-based [[Alternative Initialism|Radqueer]] organization founded in 2025.

==Relationship with LGBTQ+ community==

On their website, Bt+ claim to be against gatekeeping in the LGBTQ+ community and for the inclusion of groups such as [[Minor Attracted Person|MAPs]] within their own organization. While they also state they are inclusive towards LGBTQ+ people, they do not present themselves as pushing for their own inclusion within the mainstream LGBTQ+ community. MAP groups have (see [[ILGA]]) been officially excluded from LGBTQ+ umbrella organizations and some pride festivities since around 1994.

==Outreach==

Via their social media, Bt+ have posted about their work at pride events in their local area, which includes setting up information tents and handing out badges featuring symbolism from traditional and radical queer identities such as [[Transage]] identity.

==Online==

The organization has had a mixed reception on social media, with one Mastodon account getting banned for vague reasons. Bluesky has also taken action to ban the organization, but has since stated that it will adopt rules in October 2025 that do not forbid anything it posts. Its founder responded that the organization can not be banned from real life and stated their intent to continue promoting their work at public events.

==Beliefs==
On their website they have stated that their beliefs as an organization are:

'''Autonomy:'''
Autonomy is respecting that everyone is in charge of their own person. It means that consent is important, that everyone gets to decide what standards they hold for their own consent, and that those standards should be respected. It means that if someone identifies a certain way, then they should have the resources to transition however they see fit. This core belief is what drives us to fight for orientation and identity.

'''Equality:'''
Lots of groups in the world are oppressed. Stigma against love of an oppressed group is emplaced because people want to maintain control over that group. The only path to liberation is equality, and that means that the ones we love need the rights they deserve, and that everyone should have equal opportunity no matter what.

'''Sex Positivity:'''
Sex positivity is the belief that sex is a natural part of our lives as reproductive animals, and that there shouldn't be a stigma around it. We believe that resources for sex and relationships should be available to everyone who wants it, and that sex education is important to having positive sexual experiences.

'''Queerness:'''
Queer means weird, and that's something you can't define. We believe that anyone can be queer in their own way, and that telling someone their orientation or identity isn't valid isn't right. First it was gender sexuality, then transgender people, and to this day various groups are trying to justify why their initial should be added to "LGBT", but if we continue letting in one group at a time, we'll never see a day where everyone accepted. It's time to end the gatekeeping and just be "queer".

'''Love:'''
One group on their own can make change, but when two groups of similar people are fighting for the same rights, it spreads out what could be a larger movement. We believe that by sticking to a general cause, we can unite more people than an organization fighting for one group. By banding together over the beliefs of Autonomy, Equality, Sex Positivity, Queerness, Love, and Unity, we can do more together than we can apart.

Kinky Kids

2025-12-07T21:05:27Z

HumanBeing:

__NOTOC__{{Template:Adj}}'''"Kinky Kids"''' refers to [[minor]]s who are interested in kinky or fetishistic forms of sexual expression, and are thus expressing "deviant" desires. Such desires are common among children as young as 10.<ref>[https://sexedrescue.com/children-kink-fetishes/ Sex Ed Rescue - Children, kink and fetishes]</ref><ref>Del Giudice M. (2014) [https://iris.unito.it/retrieve/handle/2318/1853338/974935/DelGiudice_2018_middle-childhood_chapter_pre.pdf Middle childhood: an evolutionary-developmental synthesis.]; 8:193–200. doi:10.1111/cdep.12084. in: Halfon N, Forrest CB, Lerner RM, et al., editors.</ref>

The term can also be applied to an [[War of adjacency|adjacency]]-enabled social change dynamic, or some would say "strategy", in which the voluntary participation of some youth and children in diverse and marginalized forms of sexual expression leads to the eventual social and legal enshrinement of their voluntary rights to a sex life in general.

In an [[War of adjacency|unpublished paper]] on [[Minor Attracted Person|MAP rights and politics]], a founder of [[Newgon]] defined it as so:

<blockquote>
''One possible way of accelerating social change involves "Kinky Kids". It can be claimed within the area of highly marginalized sexualities, that children and youth so inclined are uniquely in need of value-neutral information, advice and guidance. Therefore, a public-health argument might be made that if kids are "doing it already", it falls upon experienced adults to give guidance - even hands-on instruction to protect the best interests and developing identities of kinky kids - minors who are inclined towards kink. Not only to encourage their development, but to protect their physical safety and acknowledge their vulnerability to social stigma.''

''Once we have accepted that children and youth can and do have deviant desires and engage in sexual fetishism under the necessary guidance of adults, we are then begging the question as to why young people should not indeed be permitted voluntary sexual rights.''
</blockquote>

==Research==
[[File:Alok.jpg|thumb|A now-famous quote that asserts the potential kinkiness of girls]]
Minors who experiment with sexual kinks and fetishes have not so-far been widely covered in the research literature due to ethical concerns.

*A review by [https://sexedrescue.com/children-kink-fetishes/ Sex Ed Rescue] attempts to collate all available research on the topic thusfar.

==See also==

Numerous articles on NewgonWiki concern themselves with the idea that young sexualities are only permitted to be discussed within the context of [[safeguarding]], [[sexualization]] and [[Child Sexual Abuse]]. Discussion of young people's "healthy" sexuality, when it is permitted, often defaults to normative patterns likely to be palatable to adults, serving the ends of authority.

*[[Childhood Innocence]]
*[[Research: Youth sexuality]]
*[[Adult Attracted Minor]]
*[[Minor MAP]]
*[[Transage]]
*[[Queer Theory]] - It has been argued by some scholars that children are queer.

==Examples==

There are many examples from the modern pride movement, of young people exploring kink, with some degree of older-adult guidance. Within American society, highly-involved social conservatives and radical feminists also point to the widely-accepted phenomena of [[Wikipedia:LGBT youth vulnerability|LGBT Youth]] and [[Transgender youth and attraction to minors|Transgender Youth]] as "trojan horses" for the [[MAPocalypse|"normalization"]] of "[[degeneracy]]".

==Testimonies about kinky youth==
Coco 'Cocolina':
Hello, I'm Coco. I've been around since 1994. I've been in Munich since 2003, and the city has become my home. I'm currently studying Tourism Management at the University of Applied Sciences. I'm often out and about, I dance ballroom and Latin, and I enjoy drawing, but what I love most is spending time with friends.

'''At 14, I was able to give my fantasies a name: BDSM''', and at 19, I came across the SMJG

At the regular meetings, I immediately felt comfortable and understood among like-minded people. Once I got a taste for it, I didn't want to miss a single meeting.

After 1.5 years, I became an organizer. I hope that as part of the SMJG, I can give new, young people the feeling that they are not alone with their "unconventional" fantasies.

For questions about me, the meetings, or the universe, you can reach me at REDACTED@smjg.org.

Vincent:
Hey there, my name is Vincent. I was born in 1999 and have been a regular at the SMJG meet-up since November 2016. '''My interest in BDSM and bondage began very early, even before I could really categorize it.''' At the meet-up, I have an incredible amount of fun exchanging ideas about BDSM and meeting new people every time. It's been one of the highlights of my month for a few years now, and I always look forward to it. I'm even more pleased to be involved in organizing from now on. I'm really looking forward to future conversations and meeting interesting people. See you there!
