Reblog this, spread the word

For anyone who is unaware, MAP means “minor attracted person” though this is nothing but a false name Pedophiles use in attempt to weasel their way into the Queer community. If you see anyone using this flag, block them and report them if you can.

Edit: I’ve seen a lot of people mention this so I’d like to state it here as well so more people can see it. 1) DO NOT REFER TO PEDOPHILES AS “MAPS”. The only reason I used it here was to make people aware of what it means in this context. Actually using it when talking about pedophiles does nothing but help them hide and it also hurts the animation community. Which brings me to point 2) the term “MAP” in animation is an acronym for “Multi Animator Project”. If you see an animation video with MAP in the title it simply means that the video was made in a collaboration between several animators, it is in no way related to pedophiles or pedophilia. We need to stop calling pedophiles MAPs both to stop giving them an “innocent” sounding title and to stop hurting the animators who are simply trying to keep their titles short and simple.
