I think a big part of the problem here is the use of the word "pervert" to describe someone taking pictures of underage girls for sexual purposes. I am sure there are a number of peverts here who don't take kindly to being lumped into that category... Right Tom?

Ok, then how is this: Good for nothing, lower than pond scum, needed-killin' child molestor?

When I use the term pervert, that is who I am meaning, as well as those offenders in non-consenting adult situations (rapers, etc.).

I don't consider just in general, normal, frisky guys as perverts. I married one of those frisky guys, and they can be rather fun.

An interesting side note - I posted a picture of that girl, running from the napalm in Vietnam, and then today I saw this story on the news:

A very weird coincidence that this photo is still making news 37 years later (even though some might consider it "child porn")!!

Does that mean that Nick Ut is a pervert?

Just wondering. After all he did take the photo of Paris Hilton in a police car. You gotta be a bit of a perv to follow her around.
