Lawmakers in Kentucky sat and watched in absolute disbelief as a Democratic state Senator proposed giving child sex dolls to pedophiles.
Speaking in a legislative session on Thursday, State Senator Karen Berg argued that giving pedophiles access to child sex dolls may give them a “release” that would stop them from abusing children further down the line.
She explained her point by referring to ‘MAPS,’ a term coined by pedophiles in the 1980’s, with a view to normalizing their sick desires:
There are what they call ‘MAPS,’ minor attracted persons and – the limited amount of research that’s done on these dolls suggests that they actually, for people who are attracted to minors, that these dolls actually decrease their proclivity to go out and attack children.
It actually gives them a release that makes them less likely to go outside of their home and what was interesting is the research did not support the same conclusions for people who were adult attracted using dolls.
However, Berg acknowledged that “research is not very good and it’s not comprehensive,” before then changing tack and claiming that “the research that is out there is conclusive.”
Democrat Senator Karen Berg called pedophiles “minor attracted persons” and argued that it’s good for them to have CHILD SEX DOLLS they can use.
Democrats like Karen are sexualizing kids and defending pedophiles.
Pure evil, criminally stupid or both.

Berg later took to the X platform to try and clarify her comments, pointing out that she actually ended up voting for the bill in question:

During a committee hearing Thursday, a Kentucky state senator said allowing child sex dolls for “minor-attracted persons” could reduce the likelihood of those people abusing children.
Sen. Karen Berg, D-Louisville, said research she found indicates child sex dolls can give pedophiles a “release,” and prevent attacks on children.
Friday, she released a statement clarifying her position.
“As a mom and a physician, I am of course deeply concerned with the harm of pedophilia and I regret if my question in committee didn’t convey that. I voted in favor of House Bill (HB) 207 to outlaw child-sex dolls, a stance that aligns with my commitment to safeguarding the well-being of our youth and holding perpetrators accountable.”
What was said during the hearing?
In a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Thursday to discuss House Bill 207, Berg referred to a Google search she’d done the previous night, where research on child sex dolls for “MAPS, minor-attracted persons,” suggested it decreased the odds of child abuse. A video of her speaking at the hearing was posted on X, formerly Twitter, prompting multiple reactions.
X user @way2muchJRMC posted the video, saying he was speechless on the matter. “…figured I’d just let @karenforky speak for herself on the topic of “minor-attracted persons” using child sex dolls to satisfy their demonic desires! Holy smokes,” according to the caption.

Senator Karen Berg said child sex dolls decrease the proclivity of pedophiles “to go out and attack children.” Her remarks were met with backlash.

Democratic state senator from Kentucky has suggested providing “child sex dolls” to pedophiles in a bid to reduce the chance of them abusing children.
Speaking at the Kentucky General Assembly on Thursday, Senator Karen Berg said there was research suggesting the dolls “actually decrease their proclivity to go out and attack children.” The remarks sparked an angry backlash on social media with one prominent commentator accusing Berg of “sexualizing kids and defending pedophiles.”
The Context
There is an ongoing debate involving academics and politicians over whether child sex dolls could help prevent assaults on children or whether they act as a gateway for potential abusers. Republican Representative Dan Donovan has twice introduced legislation in the House that would make the “importation or transportation of child sex dolls” illegal, while others have called for an outright ban.
During her address in the Kentucky General Assembly, Berg said: “I was completely unfamiliar with child sex dolls, so I had of course to Google it last night…
“But there are what they call ‘MAPS,’ Minor Attracted Persons and the limited amount of research that’s done on these dolls suggests that they actually, for people who are attracted to minors, that these dolls actually decrease their proclivity to go out and attack children.
“That it actually gives them a release that makes them less likely to go outside of their home and what was interesting is the research did not support the same conclusions for people who were adult attracted using dolls.”
