If you think you can justify a 40 year old man thinking of 13 year old girl while he masturbates, so be it. But it is clearly disturbing to most of us.
Honestly I don't want to know what anyone thinks about during that but do we want to go so far as to criminalize thoughts? I don't want to live in a world that has thought police. That sounds like George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four.
The Thought Police (thinkpol in Newspeak) is the secret police of Oceania in George Orwell's dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four.
It is the job of the Thought Police to uncover and punish thoughtcrime and thought-criminals, using psychology and omnipresent surveillance from telescreens to find and eliminate members of society who were capable of the mere thought of challenging ruling authority.
Personally I've thought about stuff that was illegal. Couple people I've wanted to strangle to death. Please don't judge me by my mind just on what I actually do.
I'm not saying it's ok, it is indeed quite distasteful, and disrespectful towards his daughter. But it isn't illegal, and it isn't child pornography. But we are arguing the philosophical issue here. People are too emotional about this topic, and they let it easily affect their judgment, letting the the "thought police" degrade our rights and freedoms in all sorts of new ways. According to most people here, a 16 year old fantasizing about a 13 ear old wouldn't be that bad, but when it's a "dirty 40 year old man" there's something oh so disturbing about it. It's so ridiculously stupid.
its a FATHER pasting his own Daughters Face onto the body of a SKANK and you think its ok

The fact that there are so many attempting to justify and normalize things like this is disturbing to say the least. Is this where "tolerance" eventually gets us?

Oh...ok I forgot that I needed to be "peers" with a person before I fantasize about having sex with them. Thanks for the reminder mr thought expert.
Why is that stupid? A 16 year old and a 13 year old are essentially peers. a 40 year old a a 13 year old are not. To compare the two seems an odd comparison.
During their visits over the next few months, the girl said, Gerber gave her marijuana, which she had used before, and coc aine, which she wanted to try. During one of the drug sessions, she said, Gerber asked her to pose for pictures and she agreed, but she burst into tears when he told her to strip to her underwear.

a side note I'd like to make.
There have been several right here
in this thread that have almost threatened
this guy with physical harm due to their
opinions.
Are they equally guilty of assault on this man
JUST because they thought of hurting him
in their mind ???
you see the parallel ???

Did I say it was "normal"? I'm saying it's legal, not normal. By the way, what is normal? The US age of consent is normal perhaps...after all...the US is right about everything isn't it? Even if a girl is completely capable of having sex, and even enjoying it, they still need to be at the age of consent right, that all mighty age limit which is set in the stone, like some sort of sexual dictator. Forgive me, my mind is wondering.
There is NOTHING NORMAL about a 40 yr old man fantasizing about a CHILD in a sexual manor.
Karma? For what exactly? For having the opinion I have? For thinking the things I think? Hahaha...come and get me karma, I'm ready...
And you keep failing to mention its HIS OWN KID. Not someone else's. I really get pissed with people who think like you do, Maybe Karma will kick you in the @ss
