1. I like to travel, even only for domestic travel, but still i like it. Because when we travel we can make our knowledge expand and increase our experience level. I should change the title for this entry to the way i don't like it to be when i travel.
2. You know, the first thing that i don't like when traveling is to have some local spending their time with me. You know what i mean? I mean, when you went into some place that is new for you, you would feel 'ahhh' or 'wow', but when you come to that place with a local, i guess the reaction would be less than that. Maybe someone would say ' it's nothing'.
I remember when i went to Jong Crocodile farm, the local taxi driver that brought us there said to us " Nothing in this place to see, you can spend one hour is enough". What the hell. we are new to the place how should he know our reaction. we could feel a plain flower so beautiful in a brand new and strange place.
And i remember when we are watching crocodile jump show he said to us " let's go back, nothing else much to see". What the hell! There is another show on feeding a big fish in the pond. It could be simple, just gave some food to the fish, it's normal thing but for us the traveler, it is an excited thing to do.
That is why a travel guide always teach to respect the travelers. When the travelers so excited about a dog shit, let it be. maybe for us that is a dog shit, but for them, it is a great new experience of their life.
So, bringing local when traveling is not a really wise thing to do. Get a traveler's guide. The certified one. I have experienced a lot of situation like this when traveling.
When we travel by our own, it became an adventure to us. A great adventure, when we are finish in the end, we would feel, 'ahh' what a great journey we had (while actually we just went to some place near where we stay). But the excitement is there, let it be.
3. Another thing that i did not like is the hot sunny day, but nothing to change on that.
4. Another thing is regarding time. Rushing for time. It is not a great thing to do when you are rushing for time. A flower in a new place can be appreciated for an hour or more, it does not matter as long as we appreciate it. We might not have the chance to get back to that place next year, so we must appreciate everything. Explore everything, and don't miss a thing purposely.
5. Another thing is unwillingness to be tired. Lot of people are not wiling to get their feet to work when traveling. walking is a best method to wander around, so walking is a compulsory when you are traveling. Don't complain o getting tired.
I remember a chinese uncle taxi driver said to me " why are you so quiet?" and i said " I'm tired". He slap my knee and said " You are still young, don't be tired". I guess he is true. We are still young and we must not feel tired no matter how hard the thing is. If we need to climb then we climb, if we need to run, then we run. Young life is full of activity. We must not ever said we are tired.
Hmmmm, i am so tired of writing... to be continued when my head restart again.

Cat Museum Kuching Sarawak
1. So today, we woke up late in the morning planning of not going anywhere but since the other girls in our group already went somewhere i don't know. So why do we have to stay here in the hostel doing nothing maybe we should go somewhere that we don't know. But where is that? I think it's something related with cat? Hahaha.. we already go to every kuching's Museum, so why don't we go to cat museum, a place so unique we haven't go before.
2. Take a bus ride to Kuching town cost us 1 ringgit, and i feel so hungry that i feel that i could bleed in my gastric, acidity to high. We went to saujana food court at the 5th floor of a car park. I wonder why every Kuching's restaurant situated on the top of car park. from top spot to saujana, could be more, should be right, i couldn't remember. It's a fine place to eat. Just normal Sarawak's malay food plus some indian stall but no chinese. Some chinese doing their business but still sell halal food so it is a great place for us to sit back and relax and enjoy our meals.
3. Then we took a van from town to Cat museum in Semeriang. We pay rm3 and the van send us up until the front door of the building. Wow, Kuching's bus (van sapu/kereta sewa) really nice. After he send us there, he even offer us to take a ride back to kuching with the same price later at the time he said so but we refuse. We want to take our own walking journey.
4. So we spend our time there in cat museum. it's unique, and everyone should go and take a look. nice place.
5. To cut the story short, i don't like to write something like diary actually, we went to a place to eat called Hartz Chicken buffet located at Sarawak Plaza. Cost RM17.70 per person you know. But it is a chicken heaven because you can eat as much chicken as you want. There is roasted, fried, soup, rice, pasta, chicken liver, chicken everything. Just eat. Also got ice cream, pastry, variety of soft drink, coffee, tea, vegie, and a lot of thing. This is chicken lover paradise. Worth it for rm 17.70. I tought u can eat for that 2 hours ( this buffet limited only for 2 hours per person), but i surrender. I just ate 2 whole plate of chicken and a plate of starch (rice, potatoe and whatever) , a plate of ice cream then i surrender. Hahha. So surrender.
This is a nice place to eat. The cheapest buffet i ever had in my life.
Wow its a very big cat. Alive or not?
2. Take a bus ride to Kuching town cost us 1 ringgit, and i feel so hungry that i feel that i could bleed in my gastric, acidity to high. We went to saujana food court at the 5th floor of a car park.

I like this jumping activity of us in front of Cat museum (DBKU)
Wow its a very big cat. Alive or not?
This is 3 cats.
The scary entrace to Cat Museum

Eminem fever.
1. I am still in Eminem Fever right now. Almost every entry i wrote, i just think about Eminem. You all friends know me, I'm a big fan right. From St.anthony to SMSL ( where i get a lot of back stab and gossip because i love eminem). Now, after waiting for 4 years, he's back and how should i i hide my gladness that he is back?
2. I love writing and reading. Since i was in primary school, my Bahasa Melayu Essay always the top in my school. My english essay not quite good as that but i never got B for english. So i just love writing and also appreciate poet, some language art like that. That is maybe why i love good hip hop song because they have lot of word in it compare to other song which always repeat the first verse twice or a verse contain only two senteces.
3. I started writing when i was in secondary school after i was exposed to Eminem. I start writing rhyme and some sort of thing like that. It was a funny thing to feel like an emcee at that time. I dress hip hop and love hip hop. I have my own lyrics book, like a diary which i talk about someone i hate or i love. I guess when i entered SMSL, people don't like me because of that rhyme i wrote.
4. Now i am into writing an article, blog post, some short story, long story and everything. I spend my freetime writing. I have a full folder in my hard disk with my writing, only a few got posted here in my blog.
5. I love eminem lyrics. He is genius ( as for you all, he might be disguisting) but in term of writing, without looking at any other aspect, he is so creative. He could be the one who inspired me to write. Since i listen to Eminem, i write.
6. Well i just found out that there are bonus track in Eminem's New album Relapse. 2 bonus tracks. One entitled 'My darling' and one Entitled ' careful what you wish for'. Both are fascinating to me. The way he create a story in this song. As for careful what you wish for, it is just like a reply to all the critics he had received since his previous album until Encore came out.
7. I like the most is the song my darling.
Ya look
If i were to rap about the crap that's out
That's the route you probably want me to take
Cuz your just dyeing to know what i think
And my take on some other rappers
If i was to say somethin bout' paul wall
You'd probably crap in your pants cuz im white and he's white
So he's like my competition i mean right
nope, paul wall is dope and so's bubba
But, but, But....
But i don't compete wit nobody
I just go hard do the rope a dope ollie shuffle
And dance around my opponents do donuts
Sometimes i play possom like I'm asleep it's awesome!
I'm like a sleeping giant and when i awake I'm like dre
I just jump from outta no where and bite prey
And sink my teeth in and fill em' fulla poison
And make a noise like a snake before i kill em'
And let em' know i just don't feel em'
And smack em' with the backward E the' eminem emblem
I was taught if your gonna murder somebody you should face em'
Tell em' why look em' dead in the eye then waste em'
And the dark shall emerge from the firey depths of hell
And swallow the shallow the hallow who dwell
In the shadows of all who are willing to sell there souls
For this rap game and it ga ga goes.......
123 check,check 123, check 123
That aint the hook now follow me
There's nothing else for me to say
My public adores me!
Everybody bores me they just so corny
So at night before i sleep i look in the mirror
The mirror glows lips and it whispers come nearer
( Hook )

Evil Spirit: Put the gun down!
Eminem: Bye bye!
(*gunshots* ) Ok im still alive!
Evil Spirit: So am i too! you cant kill a spirit even if you tried too

This is what you wanted your whole life Marshall right boo?
Look at this house! look at these cars! I'm so nice ooooh!

Lose your best friend from high school your wife too!
Aint even sure if your kids like you!
Come off tour cant even sleep at night without night-quill
Think of the Valium addicts start a rehab cycle
But together we can break the cycle
Marshall?
Eminem: WHAT!
Evil Spirit: No ones gonna love you like i do!
( Hook )

And i don't want you too ever leave me my darling
You and me were meant to be together my darling
And if i can not have you then no one can your my darling
Cuz i posses your soul, Your mind, Your heart and your body
Well this lyric is so creative in my judgement. The first verse is just like an intro, but the second verse show a conversation with an evil spirit trying to convert Eminem back to his old state of a character called Slim Shady. And Eminem refuse but the evil spirit was persistent. Dre came up in the song in a conversation with Eminem in the middle of the arguement. It was a really liquid lyric which is impressive to be listen to compare to other rap song.
let me gave example of other rap song lyrics:
I ain't never seen nuthin that'll make me go,
this crazy all night spendin my dough
Had a million dollar vibe and a bottle to go
Dem birthday cakes, they stole the show
So sexual, she was flexible
Professional, drinkin X and ooo
Hold up wait a minute, do I see what I think I
Whoa
and bla bla... nothing impressive to hear...
THis is song get low from flo rida. Compare the two lyrics and you would spotted the different in Eminem's way of writing.
Anyway, get low by flo rida is a nice song. I love em. The beat and music is nice, as for the lyric, average.
haha. What i am saying?
Anyway... Peace. make sure you get the original copy of Eminem's album Relapse and Relapse 2 coming soon this year.

Eminem Relapse Top up!
I'm relieved because my judgement on this album is by far correct. I've listen to it many times.
-Comeback eminem has claimed the top spot on the U.K. album charts - becoming the fast-selling release in Britain this year (09). - Contactmusic.com
-Not only does Detroit's favorite son claim the top spot of the week, the tally will be enough to score him the biggest opening sales week of 2009 so far, besting his interscope labelmates U2, whose "No Line on the Horizon" sold more than 480,000 copies earlier this year.- hitfix.com
-According to chart reports issued Sunday, Eminem's "Relapse" is no.1 in the U.K. and also becomes the fast selling album to date this year. - Singersroom.com
-Eminem’s Relapse skyrocketed into the number 1 slot and Green Day’s latest album 21st Century Breakdown came in at number 2. -thewest.com
-Eminem's comeback album Relapse has stormed to the top of the UK charts, becoming the fastest seller of the year so far. - news.sky.com
Jong Crocodile Farm, Sarawak
It was an half hour journey from Kuching Town to this crocodile farm. Bus ride cost me RM 5 one way. Worth it? well let us see.
When we arrived at Jong Crocodile Farm the first shocking things that we had to pay Rm16 to enter. In the internet, it says that the entrace fee is Rm10 and what we found there, RM10 is only for sarawakian. No student price, and other Malaysian other than Sarawakian will have to pay RM16. What? I got a cheaper price for a same place like this in sabah.
Rm5 for student in Tuaran Crocodile Farm in sabah.
I was a little restricted economially now, so Rm16 is really inappropriate for me.
Anyway, we did pay the entrace fee since we already went that far. So what is so interesting about this crocodile farm. below are the things i noted:
1. they have that big Bujang Senang skull, it's historical.
2. They have a lot of crocodile, i think much more than Tuaran, i don't know about Sandakan.
3. They have a really big crocs there. Honestly, when i saw that Crocs coming our from the pond, it was so creepy and scary. So big. Twice my size.
4. They have jumping crocodile...well unfortunately, all the crocodile were lazy to jump. We wait almost 20 minutes and none of the crocodiles jump. That is pretty sucks.
Other than that, nothing special about this farm until they have to charged Rm16 for a person.
To say worth it or not. I would say...not worth it. Think twice before go.
p/s: We went to Semenggoh National Reserves later to watch orang Utan, that place is much more better. So beautiful, and only cost us Rm1.50 for student price. RM3 for non-student.

This is jumping crocodile i'm talking about.

Memory of Marshall mathers LP
1. A lot of people asked me, why i like Eminem so much? The reason is The Marshall Mathers LP.
What is The Marshall Mathers LP
It is the second album or Eminem released at the end of 1999 nearly 2000. It was like a sequence of Eminem's The Slim Shady LP which is the first LP of Eminem. He created Infinite EP before hitting the mainstream music industry.
When we say sequence, this album was produced in the middle of Eminem's controversy all over the world with his marriage issues, assault and drugs problem.
When Eminem's first international debut with The Slim Shady LP which is his first album, everyone attack this young rapper as an annoying, violence, double faced, murderer, serial killer and everything and his music rated XXXNo one must listenXXX to describe how violence and inappropriateness of the album in human culture.
However, Eminem came back with the second album which is The Marshall Mathers LP which raised more critics and contreversy regarding the lyrics which is so full of violence, drugs and sexual issues.
Shockingly, this second album was so damn good, in fact, it could be the best hip hop album ever produced and the lyrics and song in this album was so disguisting yet brilliant making it sold out at and Eminem received multiplatinum and multi awards for this album. It was nominated for the best album of the year but unfortunately the album lost to someone i could not remember his name and i also did not the name of that old singer. Lots of people give opinion that this album should received that awards.
Why The Marshall Mathers LP became a big hit in the world?
Critics. You can hear almost everywhere this album had been critisized for its explicit content. I remember in Selamat Pagi Malaysia, a women telling the audience not to let their children listen to this album. Everyone trying to stop this album from being spread widely all over the world.
Protest and strike was held to openly critisized this album. This is the genius part of Eminem and also Dr.Dre who work very hard for this album, those critics gave free advertisment for this album. Can you imagine how many people watching Selamat Pagi malaysia and how many people will develope curiosity when this album mentioned in that show.
This album bring fame to Eminem. being the most notorius and also rich. I could remember how every corner of the street, people are listening and rhyming a long with this album. That is the era of Eminem i think. No one can deny that.
Why it is being critisized?
Do you ever listen to this album? If you did, you would know. This album started with Public announcement which asked people to kiss Eminem's ass and every cuss word comes in this announcement. Lastly Eminem says "Sue me!" and the whole album start.
The album first song is about Eminem raping his own mother, the second song about a fan being so fanatic killed himself by driving through the highway down the river with his pregnant girlfriend, followed by the song about shooting people in airport. Then the song of Eminem scolding his fans in The way I am. Later the song The real slim shady comes with insult to many pop artist in music industry. Then came the hard song of entitled Remember me which is about shooting people and everything….. the list go on with more violence, insults, critics to gay community, murder, and robbing a bank.. killing his own wife. Everything inside this album. So scary yet it produced a unique way of putting a song. No one every write something like this in an album..
The strength of this album
Even though this album contained lot of bad stuff and lyrics, but it is not bad stuff anyway. The beat, the genius and honest lyrics, funny, sometimes it can meka you laugh, make you angry, and make you say, you're right Slim shady. The music is taken seriously in this album. The song titled "Stan" is one of the best song ever produced in this world. Listed in top 100 best song ever produced by Rolling Stone magazine this songs sure fascinate hip hop community. The song also bring a new way of emceeing. As most of people rap about their life and their stuff, the song Stan rap in a second person view. It is actually not a rhyme of Eminem, how should I say it, it is actually a series of letters narrated by Eminem who supposed to be a big fan named Stan. The 3 letters than joined together with bridge of Dido chorus producing a story which is so interesting to be listen to. This song sure bring a fame to Eminem. After this song is widely aired in radio, people start calling a fanatic fan as stan. It became a new word.
Everyone must know The real slim Shady song in this album. This song consist of the most catchy lyric ever in history. You wouldn't believed me? How many people did not know Eminem when you sing "The real slim shady Please stand up, please stand up!". Everyone knows this song. It won multiple awards in Grammy.
All other song is worth to listen. Another song that is so unique in this album is "Kim". A song called Kim. When you listen to it, you would not consider it as a song because it is more like an argument between husband and wife end with the husband slitting the throat of his wife. Very violence. The song end with a sound of body drag into a car trunk. And this song is actually prequel to the song called Bonnie and Clyde 97 in Eminem previous album The slim Shady LP. This song is so unique and every hip hop fans should listen to it even only for once. No other songs in this world are like this song.
Why do I listen to this album
My friends lee wai hong lend me this album. I listen to it once, I was fascinated, excited and sense the unique of this album. After listening to it, I became a fan.
Conclusion
If people consider themselves cool enough to be a hip hop, well listen to this album first and you would feel inferior because of it. I gave this album 10/5 stars and this is the best album I ever listen to up until now.
I would gave an advice that everything you are listening in this album, please don't accept it in reality. It is a bad thing to do. Let the album be the album to entertain you and do not follow anything.
Now Eminem is selling out his new album called relapse which I found is ok and bring the same character as he is in The marshall mathers LP, but it is not enough to beat this album.
Give a listen and you judge for yourselves.

Let the Youth Grow
1. I do not have much time to write my blog right now. so excited doing my Elective posting in Kuching or more precisely Holiday in Kuching.
2. There is so beautiful place here in Kuching. Kuching is beautiful and a clean town. Clean in term of the rubbish and everything.
3. The unclean part is the youth or the teenager here in this town. Experiencing twice incident in first week i am here in Kuching is not so comfortable to me. The first incident is when I was riding my bus to my place in Medical College near the hospital. inside that bus, there is a teenager or maybe a guy around 20-25 years old sitting inside the bus and drinking alcohol. I supposed people like this doesn't suppose to ride a bus. he is very annoying and talk so much nonsense thing. The second incident is when I was sitting at waterfront Kuching and suddenly infront of me a group of boy and girls around 13-15 years old fighting each other using stick as weapon. So annoying thing to see when you are sitting with your girlfriend enjoying the calm day in front of a beautiful river.
4. Every place must have this kind of people. I called them immature. I believed a lot of young people out there aged from 13 years old to 20 years old feel they are big enough to get involved in this kind of bad thing. Actually they are much more immature by joining unhealthy act like this. When they grow up they will understand.
5. for me, i will just let them be like that. Let them grow as they like. One day they will understand and some of them will not. Who will not will face a consequences, then they would regret their whole life living in this world. So it is fair enough for them to grow.
6. Teenager is a very rebellious, want to be cool, i'm the strongest kind of stuff feeling conquering their mind and heart. teenager never see the risk and never see the future that lie ahead. They always want to be cool even though involving in some kind of stupid thing. All in their life is to impress others. Impress the girl, impress the guy, impress the other girl something like that.
7. Soon, hopefully, they will understand that life is not meant to impress other. It is more on how you treat others. Love other, and to be the true of yourself. Being yourself is a the easiest way to be but the hardest point to achieve. Sometime when you are in your teenage life, you would feel like you are being yourself saying that what yo wear and what you do is yours and that is yours, without knowing that you are posing others. being a hip hop is not yourself. Being a punk is not yourself, acting cool to impress girls is always not yourself.
8. Process of understanding the purpose of life is always mystery and never will be describe even by the most genius professor or something. The understanding of yourself is much more important than that. While people growing up, they will be burden with more responsibility and this will reshape them to be real human standing in this world. Neglecting the responsibility is a way of survival. even though, something important you would not ever neglect, and if you do, you will became no longer have purpose to live.
I love one quote from Krishnamurti if i am not mistaken saying
you have to be the light of yourself, not the light of your doctor or light of professor, or..the light of jesus or the light of buddha. You have to the light of yourself, in a world that is utterly becoming dark......
I'm wondering and thinking in Kuching.

Why say Muhammad is a pedophile?
In the view of a malaysian who is born in 1986.
1. I love to hear old folks story. Old people story. Golden age people story. Their story about war with japanese and war with communist, how they lived back in the early 50s or 60s, or even 30s, 20s. It is so different from what we are living now.
2. Today people turn to be growing immature even until they are 40 years old. I have read an article on how people not becoming mature today. Almost 70 % people will die immaturely. that is why prison is always attended, and more and more violence, war and crime cases reported. Could you say a man who kill his family a matured person? And he is 30 years old. How do we classified immature person like this.
3. As said by previous study, people becoming more dependent today with the available ease and facilities, we did not grow. We will always like this until we are dead. Internet, tv, ps2, games, computer, shopping mall, teddy bear, barbie doll... everything blunting our maturity.
4. Compare to old people as my late grandfather, grandmother, all living in a world that is hard and tough to survive. They have to work even they age is still under 18 or 17 years old. They become matured thorougly compare to us. They became matured at the age of 18 compared to us maybe at tha age of 25.
5. Do you realize a few years ago everything was 'only for 18 years old and above' and now some thing is labeled as 'only 21 years old and above'. The grade is upgrading.
6. My grandmother told me that during her marriage time, almost everyone is married even before turning 15 years old. You never heard back in the 30s, a 12 years old girl were having three children? No? then you are one of the immatured guy in this world.
7. That is 50-60 years ago. And what about 1000 years ago during the lifetime of prophet muhammad? can you believed that he married with an 12 years old girl? It is only a matter of thinking.
8. When does pedophile term start to be describer? 1886? when is that? 1000 years ago or only 123 years ago? how much difference in math is that?
Western mind regarding Muhammad
1. I am very interested in the study of religion history. I want to read a lot of book regarding how religion is evolving. Even islam is evolving. Lot of us believed that Malaysian Islam is like the real islam eventually according to the history, Malaysian Islam is more to Islam hindu. Hindu influence is strong in our country islam religion practice.
2. regarding the western people who like to called Muhammad a pedophile, they should always went to Asia, down to the place out from their boundaries and open their mind and they might still see a 16 years old girl having 3 children. I've met his kind of stuff during my practival. I've met it!
3. In this matter, mind should not be closed by judging a person living 1000 years ago as a pedophile as you might charge all of our dead community ancestor including our grandmother, grandfather as pedophile. It is so stupid thing to do.
4. We made the rules, and don't make us blind to the rule. If one day in the future someone make a rule that is below 25 years old cannot married legally, and can we those people say that all of the marriage today is not valid?
5. As a conclusion, i hope some people in the west are more open minded regarding this sensitive claimed. It is too offensive and there is no respect in this kind of statement and they expect everyone to say that they are right. I honestly say that this claimed is wrong and we did not need to open a 2009 dated law book and what we need is to take a glimpse to the past, and understand how they lived during that time. If our grandmother can married at the age of 12 years old and lasted until today, term pedophile really cannot be used to claimed a Prophet something that might need to be answer when you are dead.
Muhammad already knows...
Prophet Muhammad predicts that in the future, people will make fun and talk bad about islam ad himself, his question is what a muslim should do regarding this. His prediction came true, and now i will ask myself, how would i react regarding this matter. At least i try to explain here the wrong thinking of those people.
Pedophile today
Don't make a stupid claimed that i am supporting pedophile. that is truely wrong today... because if you all see a 12 years old girl today, they look like a 6 years old in 1945. And when you look at 6 years old, they are baby. back to my previous paragraph on how people becoming more hard to be matured today.
Pedophilia diagnosis
I really fascinate by Prophet Muhammad (my point of view)
He is a powerful man, and he could claimed himself as a god and became like Jesus to be worship until today but he deny it and say that he is only a man and God is Allah. He does not take credit for what he did. Always saying that he is only an apostle of god... it is like a person who could claimed himself as a king but did not and said that he is only a civilian like others. This is rare.
Prophet Muhammad does not encourage the muslim to go to war, and yet the empire is getting bigger everyday. The problem is when Prophet Muhammad was dead, and generations and generations later, Muslim becaming a war fan or war lovers. Bringing bad image to this religion. Read Evolution of Islam. Or History of Islam.
Prophet Muhammad prohibited people to write about his life or his words because he don't want people to be confused about his words and the real word from God. That is why Koran seperated from hadith (which is Muhammad words, collected a few years after Prophet Muhammad was dead.
Islam is really a religion which is drop down to the earth and not by intepretation of scholar or anyone. It came and intepreted by Muhammad and not Intepreted by Muhammad then became religion. Different right?
Prophet Muhammad never did ask his followers to deny other religion that came from God (allah) which is Jews and Christian as in Islam, muslims must believed the Torah and the Original Bible ( which claimed to be hard to found today, most are edited version. I hear only once a former father reciting a gospel that claimed to be from the original copy). We should not ever make enemy with christian and jews only if they try to attack us as jews did in palestine. But talking about the situation in Malaysia which is harmony and peaceful, we don't need to say " no no, christian is wrong, they will go to hell'. This is not right. Their religion is their religion, ours is ours.
We should be open for any discussion. Like what bruce lee said regarding his jeet Kun do, he don't want it to be like gospel which cannot be doubt. We should always received the critics and maybe there is something wrong, we try to study it, and if we found the answers, we should be happy about it and not to use it against other. We should study. That is why Koran is not similar to other text because most of the sentences can be intepreted to thousand meaning. It was so beautiful and interesting.
LASTLY
We are all together living in this world. No matter what religion are you, you must not live with your enemy. what i mean here is, we should not have enemy in our life. Everyone is the same. trying to have a faith, and to live in heaven, get a great life after life. Don't blamed people who is trying hard to do this.
p/s: sorry for any mistakes. Correct me.

Pedophilia diagnosis
The term paedophilia erotica was coined in 1886 by the Viennese psychiatrist Richard von Krafft-Ebing in his writing Psychopathia Sexualis.[22] He gave the following characteristics:
- The sexual interest is toward prepubescent youths only. This interest does not extend to the first signs of pubic hair.
- The sexual interest is toward prepubescent youths only and does not include teenagers.
- The sexual interest remains over time.
The APA's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 4th edition, Text Revision gives the following as its "Diagnostic criteria for 302.2 Pedophilia":[23][24]
- A. Over a period of at least 6 months, recurrent, intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors involving sexual activity with a prepubescent child or children (generally age 13 years or younger);
- B. The person has acted on these sexual urges, or the sexual urges or fantasies cause marked distress or interpersonal difficulty;
- C. The person is at least age 16 years and at least 5 years older than the child or children in Criterion A.
