My purpose in discussing the abolition of age of consent laws was to show how
desensitized people have become to the subject.

After the Ball - How America will conquer its fear and hatred of Gays in the 90s"

homosexual activists and trained propagandists Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen wrote the following:

DESENSITIZATION
From the point of view of evolution, prejudice is an alerting signal, warning tribal mammals that a potentially dangerous alien mammal is in the vicinity, and should be fought or fled. Alerting mechanisms respond to novelties in the environment, because novelties represent change from the usual, and are, therefore, potentially important.
One of two things can happen: (1) If the alerting mechanism is very strongly activated, it will produce an unendurable emotional state, forcing the tribal mammal to fight the novelty or flee it. (2) If, however, the novelty is either low-grade, or simply odd without being threatening, the alerting mechanism will be mildly activated, producing an emotional state that, if other environmental circumstances militate against it, will be too weak to motivate any actual behavioral response. In the latter case, the mammal may peer curiously at the novelty for quite some time, but will not do anything about it, or to it.
...Apply this to the problem of homohatred. If gays present themselves-- or allow themselves to be presented--as overwhelmingly different and threatening, they will put straights on a triple-red alert, driving them to overt acts of political oppression or physical violence.
If, however, gays can live alongside straights, visibly but as inoffensively as possible, they will arouse a low-grade alert only, which, though annoying to straights, will eventually diminish for purely physiological reasons. Straights will be desensitized. Put more simply, if you go out of your way to be unendurable, people will try to destroy you; otherwise, they might eventually get used to you. This commonsense axiom should make it clear that living down to the stereotype, a la Gender-Bending, is a very bad idea.
We can extract the following principle for our campaign to desensitize straights to gays and gayness, inundate them in a continuous flood of gay-related advertising, presented in the least offensive fashion possible. If straights can't shut off the shower, they may at least eventually get used to being wet.

My point? Now that acceptance of adults with homosexual desires has gone mainstream, it's time to show that youth have homosexual desires as well, and should be accepted for that. The terms "gay youth" (and "transgender youth") have been used so often in society by the LGBTQueer movement that people have become
desensitized to it, i.e. a good portion of society believe that some youth naturally have homosexual desires and there is nothing wrong with those youth 'exploring' those desires.
When it comes to children and youth wanting to 'explore' those desires with adults, UK homosexual activist Peter the pedophile Tatchell said the following:
As an example, the film-maker Derek Jarman told me that he had sex with an adult, at his initiative, from the age of nine. He said he did not feel abused or damaged by the experience. If that is his view, who are you or I to dispute and reject it?
I was not endorsing his viewpoint or that of others who did likewise. I was merely stating that they had a different perspective from the mainstream opinion about inter-generational sex. They have every right for their perspective to be heard. Hence the mention in my letter.
Now mature adults, these people look back on their under-age sexual relations with older people and do not feel that they were harmed. If this is their considered view, we should respect their evaluation (while also recognising that many people are harmed by early sexual experiences).

According to UK homosexual activist and promoter of pedophilia Peter Tatchell, there is no harm in 'talking about' how much children enjoyed their sexual experiences with adults, i.e. Tatchell knows that if the topic is discussed enough, particularly from the child's viewpoint, society will become
desensitized on the subject and no longer care.
