German article on the current situation

[raletha]

There's an article in a popular German magazine, Spiegel, concerning the current goings on with LJ. My German is nicht so gut. Are there any German speakers about who may be able to provide a summary or translation into English?

What's a mundwinkel?

The people who started this whole muckraking deal seem to labor under misapprehensions such as that minors are not allowed to have sex. Decidedly untrue. It may well be that said people do not want to allow minors to have sex, but I suggest there is no way they're going to control that. The prevalence of "with-child" minors in schools is a good indication of their failure. They are likely steamed about that. Hey, you know, "Tough Shit." People are people. No matter their age.

Psychologists (who are not on the payroll of conservatives) agree that people should not be forbidden from sexual experimentation. Such causes damage to their psyches. Therefore it could be argued that it is these would-be censors who are the ones actually causing harm to children. I mean, sex is not some crime (except for between adults and children). It is a biological imperative. Attempting to force children to "wait" is an exercise which, if not done properly and without making sex seem to be something "dirty," may cause permanent damage not only to the children but also their adult lives.

Therefore I, for one, would just as soon the Puritans shut the fuck up and not be going about attempting to impregnate other people with their twisted ideas of how things should be. They have been creating monsters quite long enough. In fact, I accuse them of creating pedophiles, by their attempts to convince children that sex is wrong. Some of the children get the idea that adult sex is wrong. You know, sex with sexy people. So how do you prove how the kinder fetish comes about in someone? Do you experiment? I think not. At any rate, the Puritan method of sex education (none) has proven to not work.
