I just...am floored at the shit I see on Twitter sometimes...just in case you’re not aware MAP stands for minor attracted person - lots of people try to make it out to be “okay” especially if they say they “don’t interact” Being attracted to minors is pedophilia!!!!!!!! Fuck!!!

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

You’re telling people to die and you think you have the moral high ground? This is why I don’t trust therapists, because so many of them end up violating my privacy anyways.

If you only want to treat clients who don't fall anywhere on your personal "icky" meter, then perhaps you're in the wrong field.

Then get out of therapy altogether, because you are only going to cause harm to your clients with that sort of attitude. If you cannot have empathy for an entire group of people because you cannot remain objective, then the issue is not MAPs. It's you.

You're not thinking this through very well. Plans mean nothing for this, you can be treating someone that's attracted to minors, someone with uncomfortable paraphilias, or someone with a stigmatized personality disorder without knowing it when they start therapy.

These people often face discrimination from a therapists emotional reaction, which should never influence how well they treat someone, and they might come in for dissociative problems, adhd, addiction, eating disorders, or whatever else you specialize in.
