The North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) supports
the rights of all people to engage in consensual relations, and
we oppose laws which destroy loving relationships merely on the
basis of the age of the participants.
NAMBLA does not say that ALL children should engage in such
relationships.
However we believe that when this does occur society should be
able to distinguish between those relationships that are loving,
supportive and mutually desired, and those which are harmful and
involve force or coercion.
NAMBLA unequivocally condemns all coercive or non-consensual acts,
sexual or otherwise, between people of any age.
NAMBLA supports youth liberation and the empowerment of young people
in all areas of their lives (not just sexual). We believe that there
should also be improved education and the establishment of viable
community resources so that young people are better able to manage
their own lives and function as productive citizens of this society.
Yours in Liberation,
Roy
