About this listen
It is not the author’s intention to hurt susceptibility of people identified with this controversial issue. It is only the concept of a writer who thinks that the homosexuality has increased in recent times, and as a result, there are children victims of opportunity of pederasts accordingly. In these 30 years or more, homosexuality has increased because there is a close correlation between the number of children violated all over the world. This is a warning for parents who have to be informed about the profile of a pervert and how to prevent, in 30 years more, our children from giving us the surprise of integrating the word gay.
We must learn by example that the majority of abusers are men (between 80 and 95 percent of the cases) and heterosexuals who use confidence, familiarity, deceit, and surprise as their most frequent strategies for subjecting the victim. The ages of the victims are between eight and 12, and the children with greater risk of being abused are:
- Those who have a reduced capacity to resist, categorize, or correctly identify what they are suffering, as is the case for children who do not speak, have developmental delays, and physical and mental handicaps.
- Those who are part of disorganized or reconstructed families, especially those who suffer from lack of affection and may initially feel flattered with the attentions of the abuser.
- Those in age prepúber with clear signs of sexual development.
- Those who are also victims of abuse.
Meanwhile, us, the great public, are contributing to the increase of this social evil, demonstrating consent, indifference, or criticism. Meanwhile, in children grows confusion when they see same-sex couples marrying or making demonstrations of love on TV. And what will we answer as parents if they ask us about it—that this is something natural and is only a sexual preference. But to them, is this like choosing any class of preference that they can also choose as adults, or is this something unnatural and confusing?
Many times, this generates school violence, harassment, psychological, verbal, or physical abuse from adolescents who were directed toward intimidating the victim, while the subject is mistreated and lives terrorized. For them, the school represents a place of torture, and they’re not capable of curbing this harassment by denouncing it to the relevant authorities or their parents for fear that they’d be seen as effeminate. They suffer in silence, sad and lonely, and try to change. The bully tries to intimidate them, reduce them, and cause them to submit, consuming the victim emotionally as they try to prove their manhood.

As part of human psychology, everyone manipulates a little bit. But some do it on purpose, and some do it a lot. And the way we do it, and the reasons we do it for, matter. Did you know most people lie every day? Did you know that some people have become masters and making other people do what they want them to do? If you want to see through all that, take off your pink glasses and step into the world of dark psychology.

The World Health Organization (WHO) defines child abuse as follows: All behaviors deliberately or inadvertently carried out by an adult, society, or state that adversely affect the child's health, physical and psycho-social development are ill-treatment of the child.

Trauma and Recovery is revered as the seminal text on understanding trauma survivors. By placing individual experience in a broader political frame, Harvard psychiatrist Judith Herman argues that psychological trauma is inseparable from its social and political context. Drawing on her own research on incest, as well as a vast literature on combat veterans and victims of political terror, she shows surprising parallels between private horrors like child abuse and public horrors like war.

Women are angry, and it isn’t hard to figure out why. We are underpaid and overworked. Too sensitive or not sensitive enough. Too dowdy or too made-up. Too big or too thin. Sluts or prudes. We are harassed, told we are asking for it, and asked if it would kill us to smile. Yes, yes it would. Contrary to the rhetoric of popular “self-help” and an entire lifetime of being told otherwise, our rage is one of the most important resources we have, our sharpest tool against both personal and political oppression.

We have intrigued the topics of narcissism for decades, and social scientists now agree that the topic has become a new epidemic. The term narcissism started about 2000 years ago when Ovid wrote the Myth of the Narcissus, which tells the story of Narcissus, a beautiful Greek hunter who one day looks and loves his reflection in a water pool. He has his own appearance obsessed and can not leave his reflection until he dies. The concept of narcissism was first suggested by the famous psychoanalyst.

Today, having a book for every ailment, a counselor for every crisis, a lawsuit for every grievance, and a TV show for every problem degrades one's native ability to cope with life's challenges.
