"In a later press conference, Raël recommends that the age of consent be lowered from 18 to 16, but nowhere does he recommend sex between children and adults. Journalists, nevertheless, insist that he "preaches pedophilia." The journalist Bisaillon is so short of incriminating evidence against Rael that he actually cites an autobiographical passage where Rael recounts his discovery of masturbation at the tender age of nine - as proof that Rael advocates pedophilia, since he was "molesting" himself as a child!"
