Seeing as you are going to school for psychology and counseling, it's alarming that you are reacting the way you are to a minority that often doesn't feel safe with in-person therapy. Please consider viewing the resources for Mental Health Professionals at http://b4uact.org

I understand that it is beyond the persons control to be attracted who they’re attracted to. And as a professional - I would not treat someone poorly during treatment because of this. But I am still allowed to have a personal opinion about MAPs, and it is disgusting.

You will lose your license if your clients see you publicly calling their problems disgusting and report you.

Good thing I don’t plan on treating people like you

Imagine saying that about me for my skin color or religious beliefs.
-
Imagine thinking being a different fucking skin color or a different religion being equivalent to thinking about diddling humans who cannot consent to get your rocks off - as a psychologist you have specialties and I don’t want to specialize in something that disgusts me
-
I see no difference between being attracted to someone through no choice of one’s own and having a specific skin colour through no choice of one’s own. I very much hope, if this is your attitude to unchosen traits you find icky, that you are never allowed to treat anyone.

Likewise I see no difference between calling someone disgusting for being attracted to someone through no choice of their own to calling someone disgusting for having a certain skin colour through no choice of their own.

yawn and being attracted to goats is zoophilia so? attraction is not action, thought is not a crime
-
To be fair, attraction to minors can be hebephilia and ephebophilia as well, depending on the age of the minor
-
yeah but that's not the point

What about MAPs who know their attractions are harmful and are actively looking for a way to deal with it so they can live in peace without hurting anyone?

You really ought to consider another profession if you’re not going to slow down, think critically, react rationally and be civil. You can express yourself without profanity and emotional judgement. These are characteristics therapists need.
