Leonard Sisyphus Mann, distinguished guest blogger here at Heretic TOC, has interviewed me for his own blog, Consenting Adults Humans, focusing on my book Michael Jackson’s Dangerous Liaisons – how it came to be written, for instance, and the high drama over its publication, including a ferocious and sustained attack against the book from thousands of Jackson fans around the globe, even before its appearance.
The first part of the two-part interview is scheduled for publication tomorrow evening, so you might want to watch out for it. Also included is a Special Offer – a bargain price for Michael Jackson’s Dangerous Liaisons, exclusive to readers of Consenting Adults Humans. The second part is due to follow a week later, on Wednesday 19 April.
So, that’s it for now, just the above brief news item: short, but sufficient, I trust, to pique some interest.
Ok, not being the only one who shared this fate, the site consentinghumans.wordpress.com is no longer available. Well, that is really unfortunate. I got hold of the author’s last site message where he announced the ordeal. He points to two articles which should enlighten us about his reasons. The articles are not real easy to find but they can be found here:https://lakevillagecreeper.water.blog/2020/01/09/what-i-think-part-1/
and same address part-2
[TOC: THE FOLLOWING COMMENT IS FROM “POPULIST”, WHO IS PRESENTLY UNABLE TO POST DIRECTLY ON ACCOUNT OF SOME PROBLEM WITH THE WORDPRESS SYSTEM.]
Just found your blog, while looking for others who view these age of
consent laws as not being fair to how human sexuality actually is,
instead of how they want it to be. You would be surprised, but I think
the age of consent should be lowered, and I am originally politically on
the right; although, more in the center these days, obviously. I’m
highly attracted to girls around the ages of 11 to 14, and I’ve known I
was this way since high school.
The only real way to reach conservative people on the right is with
facts; most of them are realists, and respond to facts. We need to get
out there and post talking points into the comment sections of news
articles and on youtube videos if we are going to reach people.
Surprisingly, I’ve had success with this so far, as you can see in the
comments of this youtube video if you look through it enough.

Here is the shortened version of what I usually post. Let me know what
you think? Thanks.
It’s no coincidence that the age of puberty is some where around half
the age of 30. People lived short brutish lives in our ancient history,
30,000 years ago, often dying around age 30. If girls didn’t get started
reproducing just as soon as they hit puberty, they might not have lived
long enough to see that their own children made it to puberty
themselves; people had to reproduce early, the species literately
depended on it. Men have evolved to be attracted to youth, beauty, and
neoteny. That is why us men view women as hitting the wall after 30.
Evolution has programmed us to start expecting death shortly after that
age. The body starts aging exponentially fast after 30, and why wouldn’t
it, if historically we died around that age. This strategy women have of
waiting until after 30 to settle down is a losing strategy.
Grandparents were a rare breed until 30,000 years ago… when life
expectancy grew

I hate to say this, and most people don’t like it but it’s the truth.
The reason we see all of these supposed “pedophiles” running around is
because that’s the way nature has programmed some men, to be attracted
to youth as an adaptive strategy. We are throwing men in jail for the
way nature made them, through evolution, and it needs to stop. Throwing
men in jail for being attracted to girls who have gone through puberty
is an attack on male nature.?
Yes, but throwing men and women in jail for being attracted to girls and boys under the age of puberty is an attack on male and female nature, of the childlover kind.
I know it’s a question of numbers but it should not matter, qualitatively.
I received your book Tom, and I am really loving it. An extremely well researched book. Thank you so much Tom.
>I received your book Tom, and I am really loving it.
Great, I am delighted to hear it.
I might just also say I am all too aware Michael Jackson’s Dangerous Liaisons is still expensive for buyers in far-flung parts of the world because it weighs a ton (well, over a kilo anyway) and the mailing cost is high. Some potential purchasers may wonder why this is so, when they see Amazon sending books to distant places and quoting a quite low shipping and handling cost. I think this is because Amazon and other very large retailers distribute books in volume, enabling them, for one thing, to negotiate very cheap carriage rates when dealing with national postal services.
Tiny outfits like SafeSend, and Mindglow Media, which sell my Jackson book on the Amazon platform, do not have this advantage. They may quote a notionally low shipping and handling charge, in line with what Amazon can offer, but the true cost of mailing to far away places then has to be added to the quoted cost of the book itself.
Anyway, I am glad you are enjoying the book and hope you will also be interested in the story behind its publication, which emerges from LSM’s two-part interview with me over at Consenting Humans. The second part has now been published.
LOL. PZ Myers is a lunatic! He is so anti-freedom. He is an absolute embarrassment to the atheist community.
Check this article out. I must say, However, He has blocked my comments in the past, So I don’t bother comment; Well maybe to give the host some abuse for his disregard to free speech. Interesting article about the boy-scouts though:http://freethoughtblogs.com/hetpat/2017/04/12/how-do-the-scouts-get-past-their-paedophile-problem/
