Quote: Sharpe
From Fast Feminism (2010) by Shannon Bell: ”When I asked Sharpe in 2001, ‘Are you comfortable with the term pedophile?’ he replied:
“It is a technical term applied to prepubescents who don’t interest me; I didn’t want to go into the court and try and defend hebephiles, to always be making distinctions, trying to establish that ‘I am not one of them.’ This was a political move; I chose to become a generic pedophile. I believing in defending people’s freedom rather than trying to carve out a nice for myself.”(1)
