Whether through personal experience, ideals or a combination of the two, we firstly assume that anyone reading this guide has passionately held beliefs about the issues contained therein. When applied to intergenerational sex, this passion is easily dulled by fear of personal attacks and a lack of confidence. This guide aims to instil confidence and zeal in its readers’ point of view by endowing them with the arguments, certainties, sources and tips that would be available to a proponent of more popular minority point of view - Homosexual or Secular for example. Debate Guide is therefore intended to be a text for liberation, in a movement that sorely needs it.
Welcome to Debate Guide - a comprehensive guide to challenge widely held beliefs in online debates about adult-minor sexuality.


When reading, it is important to note that this guide is not 100% a means to an end, in debating this issue. Ideally, readers should change the words and arguments to suit their own opinions and understandings, using their initiative where they feel that it will benefit them. One must adequately 'culture' their argument, making sure that it represents coherent, joined up thinking that all readers (including oneself) can understand. To espouse an argument that one cannot defend is nothing but folly. Readers should also remember, that although the guide is streamed into sections, valid material for many topics and debates can be found in any section, and elsewhere on the wiki.

What the guide aims to do is instll confidence in individuals who may not otherwise speak out and improve the fortunes of others who freely discuss these issues but face problems.

However, please note that this guide is not 100% a means to an end in debating this issue. As someone who uses the guide, an active reader should modify our advice suit their own opinions and understandings, using initiative where they feel it will benefit them. After all, to espouse an argument that one cannot defend is nothing but folly. Readers should also remember that the guide is streamed into sections. Valid material for many topics and debates can be found in numerous sections and elsewhere on the wiki.

Also note that since this guide has been designed to help people of many persuasions, it is not intended to accurately represent the views of any one person. Arguments will range from the pragmatic thru the radical to the downright disagreeable for some of our strongest supporters.
