Could probably replace the Boys Beware hotlink with one to a full-length version of the film: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTn7ALbLYPI

Could it be added that this is an extremely Discredited Trope? And maybe reword the trope description so that it doesn't sound like it's wrong for gay people to get angry over the suggestion that this trope is true?
Two points about Russia/n: 1. Pederast is an anti-gay slur, not an everyday word, and 2. I think Putin’s recent remarks about mixing gays and pædos (‘We don’t mind homosexuals, as long as they stay away from our children’) should be noted here somehow.

Real Life material is really not suitable for these tropes.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynman
Hey, I actually have a legitimate addition for this, as an addendum to that Law and Order bit, in regards to the second point -
The same storyline was re-done in Law And Order UK, albeit with a single gay man. He was the victim of a severely judgemental cop back at the time of the investigation, and when the actual, heterosexual guy pleaded guilty in the end, he stands up in the back of the courtroom and applauds in self-righteous anger.

You have to post your requests like this one here: Edit Requests for Locked Pages.
Then the mods either do or don't okay it. Also, you should post it as it's supposed to be edited in, with italicized title and Name Space. Hope this helps. :-)
Thanks; I've asked for the mods to swap it in.
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.
Think we should add to the main article the statistics (that can be easily found) that LGBTQ people actually have a smaller rate of sex crimes (proportionate to being a smaller part of society in general - as in, they have no more pedophiles or rapists as a community than heterosexual people do, and actually even less of them).
This is true especially when the measurement is controlled to exclude "sex crimes" that are consensual between adults (e.g. cruising, public sex between adults, and some prostitution-related offenses, antiquated (e.g. when being gay or having sex with someone of the same sex was considered a crime in and of itself) or where the partners were within three years of each other's age (e.g. a 16/18 or 17/19 couple that, if heterosexual, would usually be covered under the Romeo and Juliet exemption).
In fact, most LGBTQ people (especially transgendered people, lesbians in societies that believe in "corrective rape," and flamboyant/"feminine" gay/bisexual men in patriarchial/"macho" cultures or in interactions with men with the belief that a "girly" man must be shamed/hurt/humiliated) are more likely to be victims of rape, violent sexual assault, molestation, or sexual extortion.

That goes in trivia from a quick glance at your figures.

Can a moderator please edit something in here? The article is locked so I can't
"In "Miss Teacher Bangs a Boy", Kyle's baby brother, Ike, has an affair with his kindergarten teacher. Kyle finds out and goes to the police, who immediately assume that the teacher is a man. Once they find out that she's actually an attractive young woman, they stop taking the situation seriously."
We need to add a note for this: The police stop taking it seriously not because they don't believe that Miss Teacher is having an affair, but rather because they believe it is "nice" and not something bad.
This is a slight diversion from the trope and more along the lines of Double Standard Rape: Female on Male.

It just isn't an example at all. I'll zap it,
Goal: Clear, Concise and Witty
This page/trope needs serious work. Pretty much every time i see it its linked any given depiction of pedophila not ones assuming that gay people are all peds. Seriously court dramas based on real life include it
