Perhaps we're just not as interesting as we think. Maybe aliens don't want to contact us for the same reason I don't want to contact kids playing in the park: I'm simply uninterested in whatever they're doing.

Lol makes me imagine that the alien species have a law against approaching humans or be charged with pedophilia.

Nah, they just have a bunch of myths about the evil homo sapiens abducting their alien babies.

It is homo phobia.
