    Get Monero

    Mu and its forum are just one small part of the wider online MAP community. While Mu is fully funded, we encourage readers to donate to other MAP initiatives (such as the FST, B4U-ACT or Free Spirits fundraisers) via secure methods such as Monero and other Cryptocurrencies. Where an online resource accepts donations, we append their name with an asterisk.

    Not all of these sites are run by members of the community itself, and we are not responsible for their content. All will however be of considerable interest to some members of our community. Please contact us if any of our links become invalid, or if you have a new site to add.

    ▵Forums

    For Boy Lovers

    • BoyChat* - Traditional board, some language boards, e.g. FR, DE.
    • BoyLandOnline - A modern-type board.
    • BoyMoment - As above. Subforums: FR, DE, NL, FI, NO, CZ.
    • BL12 - A new forum launched in 2024.

    For Girl Lovers

    For MAPs in general

    • B4U-ACT* - Nonjudgmental peer support and discussion.
    • MAP Rights Forum - Private, slightly stricter rules than Mu's forum.
    • Virped - Anti-contact peer support and discussion.
    • Pedo24 - RU language only.
    • Čepek - CZ language only.
    • GSA Forum - DE language only.

    It should also be mentioned that our community has considerable overlap with Lolicon communities (that may contain 2D explicit fiction, please check your local laws). Allthefallen is one such example, and has some MAP sections such as "the grey zone".

    ▵Chat

    Owing to widespread helplessness in the early days of the internet and the need for live support, MAP spaces have a rich tradition of IRC messaging. Traditional chat-rooms like Lifeline* offer a mixture of peer support and casual conversation during set hours, while some MAPs are active on public and private RocketChat platforms such as MSC, an anti-contact, prevention initiative supported by Prostasia*, a children's charity.

    A Dutch (NL) chat is available at Pedofilie.nl.

    A German (DE) chat is located at P-Punkte.

    Matrix: Federated Chat Platform

    Matrix (accessible via messengers such as Element and Schildichat) has seen considerable uptake by MAPs, and works according to roughly the same standards as fediverse below.

    High-paced, attritional in nature, popular with pro-c's and trolls, Matrix is unsuitable for most older MAPs, and MAPs with visual disability (compare to Discord). Popular servers are OMC* (on crypted.cafe) and PCMA. rqd2.net also runs a server.

    ▵Social Fediverse

    Federated social networking (Mastodon/Pleroma/Misskey) is one area where MAPs have seriously taken control. While it still faces some challenges, including domain suspensions and community conflicts, the medium is a rapidly expanding frontier in networking.

    Some MAP Wikis have attempted to document the MAP Fediverse, or so-called "Pediverse" (see Radqueer and Yesmap).

    Unfortunately, owing to censorship, instances are up and down on too regular a basis to fully list here. Some instances with a proven track-record of sustainability are eepy.express, rqd2.net, fedi.yesmap.net, paravielfalt.zone, mapsupport.de, and nnia.space. Consider donating cryptocurrency to your chosen server's admin to keep them online.

    Some larger, more established instances such as baraag.net and pawoo.net appear to have numerous MAPs on them, too.

    Please note, fedi sites may contain 2D explicit fiction, and the policies of instances/servers vary greatly.

    PeerTube (videos)

    FST* is a very MAP-tolerant PeerTube instance. See their fundraiser.

    Bluesky

    One potential area of expansion is Bluesky, which operates according to different standards.

    ▵Mainstream Social

    While we cannot guarantee security on any of the following platforms, MAPs have made considerable inroads into mainstream social media over the last 10 years. Discord, X (Twitter), Telegram, Instagram, Quora, Tumblr, Reddit and DeviantArt are the sites and apps most commonly associated with MAPs. A sensible and conservative approach would be to join a forum and/or a chat before venturing into mainstream socials, since the MAPs on chats and forums can often link you up with the sometimes hard to find groups of MAPs on mainstream platforms, and help you avoid censorship. For example, there are traditional PCMA-Twitter, PCMA-Quora and Fediverse-Tumblr links.

    Of the video-sharing platforms, Bitchute, Odysee and Rumble have sometimes hosted MAP-Friendly content, while YouTube practices frequent censorship against both MAPs and Anti-MAPs.

    ▵Prevention and Recovery

    ▵Blogs and Personal Sites

    Deleted Blogs

    May contain previously censored and controversial viewpoints, including radical philosophies of pedophilic sexuality. We encourage others to make their own archives of this material, as it may be removed from web archive in the future.

    ▵Magazines, Radio and Podcasts

    There have been some attempts to curate lists of Magazines and Podcasts for MAPs, of which some (including Alice Lovers Magazine, Fawnlet Magazine and Wired PM Radio) are presently active.

    See also, the podcast A MAP's Journey.

    ▵Lived experiences of AMSC/AMSR

    AMSC/AMSR refers to Adult-Minor Sexual Contact or Relations. Reading these testimonies may be emotionally triggering to survivors of sexual abuse, more so because they do not begin from the empathic premise that the younger person has been harmed.

    See the e-book "Positive Memories", linked in Yesmap's compendium.

    Many readers use shadow libraries for research, and enhancing their access to expensive journals, but Mu obviously can not recommend these for legal reasons.
