The primary reason I am starting this blog is I have read and participated in discussions on youtube about ABDLs. There are people who express negative feelings towards ABDLs. Some of these people are simply squicked, others are openly hostile to us.
Part of what I would like to do is discuss what I think are appropriate responses to certain arguments brought up in such discussions. Another is to discuss legitimate questions that are brought up, such as the subject of origins.
The first thing I think you should keep in mind if you are going to engage in discussion is don't take it personally. In the real world you will not please everyone. Some people are just going to be determined to dislike you. Others are "equal opportunity bigots" who hate everyone. If someone doesn't like you or us, that is their problem not yours. You are never going to convince everyone that it is OK to be ABDL. If you think you are going to change people's minds by brute force then you are going in with the wrong attitude and you will fail.
And the second thing I want you to keep in mind is that trying to prove that "it is OK to be ABDL" is the wrong argument. This is what is called a shifting of the burden of proof. If someone is going to make the argument that activity is morally wrong, or that people who engage in such activities are crazy, they have the burden of proof. Until such time that they have provided proof that it is wrong to be ABDL we are under no obligation to prove that it is OK to be ABDL.
From here arguments made by those hostile to ABDLs succumb to one of two fallacies, an argument based on personal belief, and an appeal to normality.
Third, I strongly suggest that you familiarize yourself with logical fallacies if you are going to advocate for ABDLs on youtube or the internet. Avoid emotional arguments and especially avoid making ad homninem attacks. I will likely discuss these and other fallacies at length.
Last, I would like to remind you that if you are posting comments on youtube, YOU ARE A MORON. Please remember this every time you post a comment to youtube.
