Girl-oriented pedophilia in Washington state.
The primary purpose of this site is to promote association, friendship; and legal, nonsexual, consensual touch (hugging, cuddling, etc) between men and prepubescent girls. I don't practice sexual touching of such girls, am not a sex offender, and am not prohibited from being around children.

Good. Plenty of LGs.

Fair / Marginally positive rating.

Not enough LGs present (or other negative factors) to justify returning.

Very few LGs.

No LGs.
Unless otherwise noted, admission was free.
Backyard Wildlife Festival (Tukwila)
May 12, park / community center in 12400 block of 42nd Ave S. Included a small "procession of the species" parade. Quite a few kids, but I felt too conspicuous as a solo man.
♥ ♥ ½
Franklin High School Arts Festival (Seattle)
May 12. Included a couple of kiddie-interest tables.
♥
Ella Bailey Park opening (Seattle)
May 12, 26th Ave W between W McGraw St and W Smith St. Lots of frolicking LGs -- including several rolling down a steep grassy hill on their sides!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Seattle Maritime Festival
May 12, Piers 66, 63, 62. Highlight was free admission to Odyssey Maritime Discovery Center -- loaded with kid attractions and kids!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Clifford The Big Red Dog - Live! (Everett)
May 11, Everett Events Center. I might have rated this higher if I had a more expensive seat on the main floor -- there were a lot of LGs dancing and frolicking near the stage, but I really needed binoculars to properly enjoy them from my $15 "cheap" seat.
♥ ♥ ♥ ½
Festival 5 de Mayo (Kent)
May 6, Park & Ride at W James St & Lincoln Ave. 95% Hispanic Spanish-speaking crowd.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Earth Care Fair (Seattle)
May 6, outside St John United Lutheran Church at 5515 Phinney Ave N.

First Nations Student Association Annual Powwow (Lynnwood)
May 6, Edmonds Community College. Native American LGs participated in dances, a few LGs in audience.
♥ ♥ ♥
Procession of the Species parade and rally (Bellingham)
May 5, downtown (rally at Maritime Heritage Park). My only complaint with this is that it was too short (less than an hour and a half between the time the parade started and the rally dissipated).
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ½
Laurel Farm & Western Supply promotional event (Bellingham)
May 5, 325 W Laurel Rd. Had a kids' fishing pond and horse-drawn wagon ride.

Holland Days: Parade of Provinces / downtown entertainment (Lynden)
May 5, mainly on Front St downtown. Numerous LGs in Dutch-style street performances after rather short parade.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
The Music Makers - Butterfly Lovers (Bellingham)
Apr 29, Mount Baker Theatre. Free family concert by the Whatcom Symphony Orchestra. The only GL fun was before the concert.
♥ ♥
Dirty Dan Days (Bellingham)
Apr 29, Fairhaven blocks. LGs mainly on Village Green at 10th St & Mill Ave -- but also at 10th & Harris watching the 4 PM piano race.
♥ ♥ ♥
Procession of the Species parade / Arts Walk / street fair (Olympia)
Apr 28, downtown. What a find! It seemed like the entire populations of Olympia, Lacey, and Tumwater were at this thing (and the nice weather probably helped). Hours of GL insanity!
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Downtown Mount Vernon Street Fair
Apr 22, mainly on 1st St. My first visit to this, and it exceeded my expectations.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Puyallup Spring Fair
Apr 21, Western Washington Fairgrounds. $8 admission. It started raining about 6 this evening, but I still had enough fun to give this place another perfect score.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Tacoma Daffodil Festival Grand Parade / post-parade street fair events
Apr 21, Mostly on Pacific Ave downtown. Not many girls in parade, but many in audience. Street fair stuff included musical performances by LGs and a rock band geared to prepubescent kids.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ½
Discover Dance (Seattle)
Mar 24, McCaw Hall at Seattle Center. The most spectacular and beautiful series of performances by prepubescent children I've witnessed! Admission was $10, but a woman gave me an extra ticket she had. There were over 400 youth participating, and most of them were girls. The show was approximately 2 hours, and included a 20-minute intermission -- which was an opportunity to mingle with LGs from the audience in the multi-level lobby. GL-paradise! Web site.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
Vegfest (Seattle)
Mar 24, Seattle Center Exhibition Hall. A high-carb waste of time. This 2-day vegetarian food festival cost $5 to enter, and only had a couple of kiddie-corner attractions and a few LGs.

Reviews of GL events and hangouts from previous weeks
One of the best resources for upcoming GL events are local newspapers
Including the smaller community and town papers. The print copies are superior because they often have event ads and blurbs that do not appear in online versions of the papers. I've noticed that general daily and weekly papers are better sources for children's events than entertainment/alternative papers like The Seattle Weekly and The Stranger -- which are more focused on adult entertainment.

Some of these rave-style dance music events without an age limit (21+, 18+) theoretically allow "all-ages", but I've only seen prepubescent girls at one of several I've attended. Read the details in the event links for clues on whether LGs are truly welcome and might be present.

Type a zip code into box after page fully loads, and a pop-up will appear with a list of rinks within 50 miles.
Swimming pools
These have various types of sessions geared to different ages and groups, but the best ones for GLers are probably the "open swims" where everyone is welcome (I've never tried to attend a "family swim" as an unaccompanied man).
Libraries
Most libraries have frequent programs and events for children, and sometimes you can get quite close to LGs there (they've sat next to me at Internet terminals). Libraries also have free flyers, papers, and posted announcements that list local places and events where children may be present.
Elementary schools
Elementary schools have special events during the school year where the general public is reportedly welcome, but some of them may not be welcoming to unaccompanied men with no students at the school. The best events for solo men to blend in are concerts and plays, rather than carnival-type parties. Frolicking LGs can also be viewed at recesses on the playgrounds (the best ones are those with businesses or other legitimate adult activity across the street or adjacent to the school), but be discreet and maintain a reasonable distance from school property.
McDonald's, Burger King
These fast-food restaurants have the best kiddie areas and seem to attract the most children.

These are free digital broadcasts with no monthly subscription fee, but require a HD tuner. Be careful when choosing one because some do not receive the secondary HD2 and HD3 "multicast" channels (this one does). HD sound quality is an impressive improvement over regular FM stereo, but there are long dropouts of the digital HD signal when traveling through low-lying areas outside the Seattle metropolitan area. Reception of KJR's HD signals (which transmit from Cougar Mountain near Issaquah, and are comparable in strength to most of the other Seattle HD stations) is solid the vast majority of the time around I-5 from the Everett Mall to DuPont.

Unlike most so-called "child rape" cases, this one actually fits the dictionary definition of "rape".
Many WA sex offenders live within school exclusion zones
I think the idea of creating 880-foot exclusion zones around schools creates a false sense of security: the nearest elementary to me is a good 6 miles away, yet I can drive there in 10 minutes. If I expand my driving radius to an hour in every direction, there are probably 50 or more elementaries alone (most middle-school girls don't interest me). I wouldn't be surprised if most convicted sex offenders have cars, but even those who don't are probably only a short bus ride to the nearest elementary or middle school. This was a legitimate news story and I don't fault KIRO for doing it, but I do object to the anti-pedo spin and hype they put on it: branding all 966 sex offenders in question as pedophiles, when probably many of them had no offenses involving prepubescent children. The one S.O. they interviewed and gave some crime detail on (Jin Yong Kim) apparently was busted for having a consensual sexual relationship with his girlfriend's 13-year-old daughter -- and we're supposed to consider him a "pedophile" "rapist" and be concerned that he's living near an elementary school (where there are surely no 13 F students)? I'd like to know how many of these sex offenders living near schools were actually convicted of grabbing or luring a child off the street. My guess is very few -- if any.

Rape of a child in the first degree
Prison: 9 years to 23 years / 25-year minimum.
The minimum 25 years applies if the perpetrator didn't know the victim 24 hours before the offense; the perpetrator established or promoted a relationship with the victim prior to the offense and the victimization of the victim was a significant reason the perpetrator established or promoted the relationship; or the perpetrator was: a teacher, counselor, volunteer, or other person in authority in any public or private school (excluding home schooling) and the victim was a student of the school under his or her authority or supervision; a coach, trainer, volunteer, or other person in authority in any recreational activity and the victim was a participant in the activity under his or her authority or supervision; or a pastor, elder, volunteer, or other person in authority in any church or religious organization, and the victim was a member or participant of the organization under his or her authority.
Child molestation in the first degree
Prison: 5 years to 14½ years / 25-year minimum.
See child-rape entry above for cases where the 25-year minimum applies. "Molestation" means any touching of the sexual or other intimate parts of a person done for the purpose of gratifying sexual desire of either party or a third party, including such touching through clothing. It does not include kissing of the neck or cheek.
Communication with minor for immoral purposes
Jail/prison; fine: 2 months to 1 year / 2 months to 5 years; $0 - $5,000.
The higher penalty applies if the person communicates with a minor or with someone the person believes to be a minor for immoral purposes through the sending of an electronic communication. "Neither RCW 9.68A.090 nor chapter 9.68A RCW explicitly define 'immoral purposes' or 'communicates' but case law holds that 'immoral purposes' refers to sexual misconduct and 'communicates' includes conduct as well as words. 'Communication with a minor for immoral purposes' means 'any spoken word or course of conduct with a minor for purpose of sexual misconduct is prohibited." (State of Washington v. Arthur W. Walton, 2005).
Luring
Jail/prison; fine: 0 to 5 years; $0 - $10,000.
Possession of depictions of minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct (child pornography)
Prison: 13 months to 7½ years.
"Sexually explicit conduct" means actual or simulated: Sexual intercourse, including genital-genital, oral-genital, anal-genital, or oral-anal, whether between persons of the same or opposite sex or between humans and animals; Penetration of the vagina or rectum by any object; Masturbation; Sadomasochistic abuse for the purpose of sexual stimulation of the viewer; Exhibition of the genitals or unclothed pubic or rectal areas of any minor, or the unclothed breast of a female minor, for the purpose of sexual stimulation of the viewer; Defecation or urination for the purpose of sexual stimulation of the viewer; and Touching of a person's clothed or unclothed genitals, pubic area, buttocks, or breast area for the purpose of sexual stimulation of the viewer.

Peyote And Other Psychoactive Cacti Busted! Drug War Survival Skills
Washington jail/prison; fine
Possession: 0 months to 2 years; $1,000 - $10,000.
Cultivation: 1 year to 10 years; $1,000 - $10,000.
I'm not aware of any prosecutions for possession of the Trichocereus genus under state law, but it is theoretically possible based on the same reasoning that the state uses (and the courts have upheld) to criminalize psilocybin mushrooms: that the mushroom is a "material" that contains an outlawed hallucinogenic substance.

Enhances enjoyment of touch, food, music, and more. No booze-like hangover. Nonaddictive. Synergistic with psilocybin mushrooms and mescaline cacti.
The infamous Texas video of young boys smoking marijuana
I thought this was kind of funny, and am more appalled by supposedly objective TV anchors (both in Texas and Seattle) inserting their personal condemnations into the story. Come on, folks -- it's only marijuana. What's the worst that could happen -- that the kids mellow out for awhile, laugh hard, and eat too much junk food? I think that marijuana (in an eaten form, rather than smoked) might be better for hyperactive kids than Ritalin or other prescription crap that's loaded with negative side effects. The biggest justification for marijuana prohibition seems to be to protect children, so it's not surprising that the drug warriors are livid at this video showing the youngest kids smoking pot with no apparent ill effects.

Floatation tanks
Not as powerful as the above plants and fungi, but enhances the sense of touch to some extent. Potentiates the effect of the above plants and fungi for a week or two after a session (floating high distracts from the desired sensory deprivation effect). I find that these tanks produce a level of relaxation, serenity, and stress reduction that is not achievable by other means, and improve my sleep for at least a few weeks. Most tank locations have a standard session time of one hour, but I don't consider that long enough to reach the deepest level of relaxation and get the full effects, and I recommend 1½ to 3 hours.
Where to float worldwide Another list Another
Most of the Washington tank locations on the above lists have long been closed. I've been using the following place in recent months:
Common Ground Floatation Center (Portland)
They've charged me $90 for 2 hours, and $110 for 2½ hours. They tend to keep the water in their tanks warmer than I can tolerate (close to 95 F), but will accommodate cooler temperatures on request (I prefer it between 93.6 and 94 F). This place has more external noise than most float centers I've visited (which degrades the tank experience), and there is no privacy in the shower area (which is shared with a sauna) -- though I haven't encountered any staff or fellow customers there while I was nude. Despite those complaints, these are large Samadhi tanks with little ping-ponging off the sides (even for big persons like myself), and I've been satisfied with my float sessions here. I've also tried the goggle/headphone sound-light "AVS" machines here for $15: the first time it was quite trippy and I got a significant mellowing -- but the second time it must have been on a different program, and didn't have any noticeable effect. They're open Wednesday to Sunday from 11 AM to 8 PM, and their phone number is 503-232-6161.

Review of 2006 international anti-circumcision symposium in Seattle
I thought about attending this, but they wanted a minimum $65 at the door for a half day of this 3-day event (the Seattle Times and Seattle Post-Intelligencer apparently didn't send anyone -- or at least they don't consider the daily practice of involuntary, unnecessary male circumcision newsworthy enough to write a review). As for Bill Clinton and Bill Gates taking a pro-circumcision stance in their fight against HIV, this is not surprising because both were born in circumcision-happy America, are probably circumcised, and the mutilated man must continually rationalize that part of his penis was cut off without his consent for a good reason.
Howard Stern's anti-circumcision rants
Jew would rather have been branded with Star of David than circumcised
Dr. Ronald Goldman is another man of Jewish heritage who doesn't like being circumcised, and he has written books on the subject, made TV appearances, and of course has a site. Other prominent Jews against circumcision include Dr. Dean Edell and Howard Stern (see above). Paul Krassner and Jon Stewart have also criticized it (Krassner in High Times magazine, Stewart on TV).
Intactivism
This is one of the best anti-circumcision sites I've seen. It's done by a guy in New Zealand -- where the circumcision rate has fallen to 5%.
Circumcision reduces penis size and sexual pleasure
Foreskin restoration increases penis *size and sexual pleasure
*Mostly width, but also some length in tightly-circumcised men.
Uncircumcised celebrities
The circumcision globes (male and female)
The US appears to be the most hypocritical country in the world on this issue: it's illegal for parents to order the unnecessary surgical alteration of girls' genitals, but OK for the majority of parents to order the unnecessary surgical alteration of boys' genitals. More on
"freedom-loving" Americans' incongruous acceptance of involuntary male circumcision.

Circumcision images and video
Where are the politicians, prosecutors, cops, and "child safety" zealots when this sex crime is occurring? This unnecessary sexual torture-mutilation is legal in every US state, and performed thousands of times daily. Like Howard Stern said: "What kind of country is this?"

I like the concept of offering people free hugs (I saw some young guys doing it at the Puyallup Fair this year), and think it could be legally used by GLers to consensually hug LGs in most jurisdictions of the world.
