Avoiding Pro-C's

This page focuses heavily on child sexual abuse (CSA) and bestiality and groups associated with it.

Deceptive slogans

Sometimes pro-contact individuals use good slogans to mean something different from their original meaning.

"I am pro consent" without any further clarification is sometimes used by pro-contact people. It's good to be pro consent, but some pro-contact people use it as a dogwhistle for "I am pro bestiality/child-sexual-contact [which I think can be consensual]". (I'm pro-consent AND anti-contact.)

Something similar happens with the phrase "I am pro choice," which in normal contexts means "I support the choice of someone to have an abortion," but in this context means "I support the right of a child to have sex with an adult." I think this one isn't used as much.

Another phrase is "love is love." Though it is often used in LGBT communities, in the context of minor-attraction it is usually justifying CSA by claiming that it is "love."

^ Many people using these slogans are not pro-contact - try to pay attention to the context in which these phrases are used.

"Chronological age doesn't matter" is a phrase used to justify pro-contact via transage people - Being transage is not harmful by itself, but one must keep in mind that chronological age does matter when it comes to relationships. This talking point is used to shame people who are anti-contact by making them out to be anti-transage. This talking point is also used sometimes in the context of transspecies people and their biological species.

Also I'd like to point out that anyone could say "I'm against harmful contact", "pro consensual contact", etc, since pro-c's think that harmful contact isn't harmful.

Some people try to push for acceptance of pro-c's with slogans like "let's all just get along", "let's include everyone", "we're all hated by anti-paraphiles", and "let's not argue/discourse".

Pro-contact flags and communities

Anyone saying "I'm pro contact", "I'm pro-c"

The "🚸" emoji (children crossing) is sometimes used to incidate minor & MAP ("aam4map") relationships. An emoji sometimes used by pro-contacts is "🔓" (opened lock).

Newgon

A pro contact MAP wiki, and their pro-contact MAP flag. I don't really know a lot about them, but aparently they're kinda right wing too? They also have a label called "yesmap" for pro-contact MAPs, in parody of "NOMAP" (non-offending minor-attracted person). They have a flag which is the popular (NO)MAP flag, but with desaturated colors. I didn't mention it in the image above, but Newgon's flag also has pink on the top instead of blue.

Zeta zoophiles

AKA "ZETA", "zoophiles for the ethical treatment of animals." They use a blue-brown-green flag and are generally pro-contact for bestiality. They use the lowercase "zeta" greek letter - ζ. Some also use "◤⁠✦⁠◢" to represent the flag. Some of them are against other paraphilias (ie, they are pro bestiality but they hate NOMAPs and anti-contact zoosadists).

Post-radqueer

(See also on this page: Radqueer) Coined by a pro-contact guy, for people who feel excluded from the radqueer community for being "too radqueer". Basically only used by pro contact people. Sometimes uses the emoji code "🌈‼️", or shortens it to "post-rq".

Consistent Progressives

Note: This group appropriates a lot of already-used queer and/or anarchist imagery. For example, the queer anarchy flag, a modified version of the progress pride flag, boykisser furry meme, Antifaschistische Aktion political meme, and the three arrows. None of those symbols are pro-contact symbols. What you should look out for is specifically the term "consistent progressivism." They also sometimes use the post-radqueer flag (see above section).

Consistent progressives are an edgelord-level violent, exremely pro-contact group. They're also a cult?? They label everyone that disagrees with them (people that think you shouldn't have molest infants, for example) as a "conservative". They believe that human rights do not apply to their enemies. They force their members to be edgelordy and violent. Here's an article someone wrote about it

Xenosatanism

Another pro contact ideology. Mainly look out for "xenosatanist", "xs", and the upside down star with the squiggly E thing. The original coining post has other weird things like claiming that some rape isn't harmful.

Other niche pro-contact and pro-abuse terminology that are rarely used, but I am putting here for the sake of Information

"pro MSM/MMP" means "minor-sexual-material/minor-made-porn". Sometimes people will also just say "CP / 🧀🍕" for "child porn"

basedqueer, lsdqueer, lacedqueer, noxiaqueer, alternatefreak

kandiqueer

There's like a zillion "___queer" ideological labels and I can't list them all

Neutral (not any specific stance) communities/symbols

These symbols don't indicate any particular stance. If someone hasn't specified but they're using these flags, it might be a good idea to ask them if you want to know.

Paraphilia community ☂️🥄

Generally anyone with a paraphilia. Has both anti-contact and pro-contact individuals.

Other common-ish paraphilia emojis: 🧸 (AAM), any kind of zombie/grave emoji for necrophiles, 🥀 (biastophilia)

Neutral MAP symbols 🗺️🍸µ

MAP / Minor Attracted People: Anyone with an attraction to minors. Both anti-contact and pro-contact people here. Other MAP symbols include girllove, boylove, enbylove, kidlove, and the butterfly. Though the MAP flag with the white was meant to be for non-offending MAPs, it's being used by pro-contact and offending MAPs as well.

(Popular childlove symbols taken from the paraflags wiki)

Neutral zoophile symbols 🐾

The blue-white-purple flag and the "alef" flag. From what I've seen, the alef flag is heavily used by anti-contact zoophiles, but it isn't inherently an anti-contact flag. (𐤀)

Radqueer

The radqueer community is a group allied around the ideals of being pro paraphilia and pro transID. There are some anti-contact people there, but I personally find that it is largely pro-contact and contact-neutral. Other symbols include the rainbow strawberry emojis 🌈⁠🍓.

The radqueer community and transID community have a lot of overlap.
