From browsing through some of the twitter links, I thought this was worth a bump, around Anti-Victim Prejudice speak:

THE TOP 5 Most victim offensive AVP words/phrases; Child Prostitute – Rentboy – Child Porn – Historic Sex Crimes – Alleged Victim.
Alleged child prostitute makes historical sex crimes alleg….before they’ve even finished the sentence I’m not even sure I believe me either.
1/2 Child Prostitute/Rentboy …I was never a child prostitute …I was a prostituted child and until the child protectors understand this, they’ll never turn this paedophile tide.
3/ Child Porn – Whether the child abuser was the other side of the computer screen, behind the camera or under the blanket, they are all equally the reason that was horrible stuff was happening to me at anyone’s hands. Those ‘child abuse images’ were crime scene pictures of the rape and sexual exploitation of me as a child …and calling ‘child abuse images’ ‘child porn’ helps the PA£DOPHIL£S sell their child victims.
4/ Historic Sex Crimes - They never say historic murder or historic stabbing …they call them ‘unsolved crimes’. What is so bad about this offensive AVP trick/lie … is that whilst they say ‘historic’ nothing could be further from the truth. They say historic to give you a false sense of safety …if the paedophile has not been challenged and stopped …then they will be much worse with many more current victims. Furthermore, there’s nothing ‘historic’ about the damage and harm paedophiles leave in their destructive wake.
5/ Alleged Victim – No such thing as an alleged victim …only an ‘alleged offender’ who automatically get a whole raft of Legal Aid protected legal/human rights that victims don’t get. Nothing alleged about what happened to Sara’s daughter and her family …they never say alleged burglary or alleged car theft …it is a reported crime with an alleged offender.
Changing #AVP hearts & minds …if these are just words that mean nothing to you ….we hope you will find a way to lift them out of your speak when talking to or about those victimised by paedophiles crimes. It may mean nothing to you but it would change the world for the better for us.
