Welcome to Max’ 2 Cents! I am Max Weber. Activist, advisor, designer and book author. Since 2009 I have been active in peer-support regarding non-offending people with a pedophilic sexual preference. Mostly via Fate and Challenge and Virtuous Pedophiles . I have decided to “switch it down a gear” and start anew with this personal blog.
I have experienced no more problems with e-mail communication for quite a while. My regular mail address seems to work reliably again.

There is news about the AfD's hostility towards our community: The complaint against Wir-sind-auch-Menschen.de (WSAM) will not be pursued further, the team announced on their website. But the title reveals even more:
Landtag Niedersachsen beantwortet Kleine Anfrage zu „Wir sind auch Menschen“...
The Fate and Challenge (FCA) project is very close to my heart. Since Marco’s departure, I have helped to build it up into an independent association with a respectable name in the community and among experts. FCA is the world's oldest website by pedophiles about pedophilia that I know of, which c...
2025 starts with really “great” news: the right-wing AfD party is bragging about making an obviously false criminal report about a project from the German self-help community and a journalist that I had hoped never to hear from again has published a piece on pedophiles. Let's start with the media thingy:
When I first spoke to medical professionals of “Don’t offend” at Charité Berlin after my coming-in, they would frequently ask me to quantify my own experiences and emotions. Later, in therapy, the Sexualpräferenz-Männchen (German for “sexual preference figurine”) was repeatedly used as a worksheet...
This is the second of three kick-off posts on my blog, which are meant to reflect on the events leading up to its launch and on my departure from Fate and Challenge (FCA). In my farewell post there (Wayback Machine) I wrote of two main reasons: a lack of coordination within the team and...
Last Friday, Drs. Sara Jahnke and Skye Stephens presented the results of their Delphi study.
The announcement of the event can be found here.
The article about the study results: "Delphi Recommendations for Diagnosis and Treatment of Sexual Interest in Children in Non-Mandated Community S...
Hello and welcome to my new blog! It has been a while that I have been mostly inactive in the community but after taking care of some private stuff I am back online now.
A new website. A personal blog. Why? Well my departure from Fate and Challenge's team was unavoidable but it meant that I also lost my voice online. And that voice and activism is very important to me. And the more websites and literature there is about non-offending pedophiles the more visible our topics and struggles become. The more obvious it is that non-offending pedophiles are not just a small anomaly, an “ivory league” kind of group, but a diverse minority hidden within and shunned by our society. Many people, many personal stories. Like any other stigmatized minority.
