In this thread I suggested to visit the forum on The Student Room of Essex University to discuss about Ken Plummer who, as the article states, normalizes paedophilia in his lectures.

I did so and guess what happened?

I just quoted a few sentences from the article of the Telegraph and asked the community what to think about it. This was the quote:

“Paedophiles are told they are the seducers and rapists of children; they know their experiences are often loving and tender ones. They are told that children are pure and innocent, devoid of sexuality; they know both from their own experiences of childhood and from the children they meet that this is not the case.”

Mission impossible. Why shouldn't students be allowed to discuss the teachings of their Profs?
