I don't know if anyone refuted you but this stuff needs to stop, like seriously. Being a pedophile isn't a sexual orientation. Pedophilia is rape pure and simple, and rape is about rage, power and control.
Rapist are sexual predators. Predators in the wild hunt for the weakest of prey. You do not see I lioness running down the Alpha male/female of a gazelle herd leading the stampede. No they select their prey from the stragglers, the weak, old and the infirm holding up the rear.
Likewise the same with human predators. They go after the weak, old and the young. They're not gonna go after the most popular guy/girl in school. No they're gonna go after the loaner/outcast who has no friends
Rapist/serial killers et al. are sociopaths, they have no empathy and are very narcissistic in nature. Sociopathy is an Axis II disorder. All Axis II disorders are created, and aren't born to a person like an Axis I disorder, such as bi-polar disorder or schizophrenia. All Axis II disorder be it sociopathy,borderline personality, multiple personality disorder are born from abuse/trauma/neglect et al.
I work in mental health as a psychiatric tech and we have both a regular kids/adolescent unit and a juvenile sexual maladaptive unit. I see sexual predators on both units regularly, but of course more so the juvenile sex offender unit. These kids are predators pure and simple. At night they're on close observation because they will either try to molest their roommates in their sleep or slip out to do the same to a neighbor in the next room. They've been molested probably by adults other times by other kids who were molested by adults and are simply repeating the process from victim to perp. All or most sexual predators have themselves been abused, and thus their thinking is now maladaptive.
Examples:
I had an eight year old try to give me a hug once while working the unit, he was so adorably cute, he went from cute to monster in 2 seconds flat. When he told me he liked black penis because of the stereotype and that I could probably give it to him better than his 16 year old brother used to. And tried to give me his number and urged me to call him when he got out. When he flipped into monster mode he sounded more sexually experienced then me at 37. The other night we got a 14 year old how was forcing his 5 year old brother to give him oral and was screwing the family ankle bitter. We had an autistic kid who was 13 who had the mentality of an 8 year old on our unit because he was molested by his caregiver. Once again, there is evidence of the predator targeting the weak. These are but a few of my experiences.
But I digress. And will conclude with reaffirming that pedophilia is not a sexual orientation, it is a mental illness. Please stop think or believing otherwise. Thank you.
If only it were truly that simple.
How does the fact that most sexual assaults against children are committed by a close relative factor into your thoughts here?
Also - where do you draw the line? If I were to hook up with a girl the day before she turns 18 I'm, according to your words, I'm a sociopath. The very next day I can walk into a business and pay her to take her clothes off for me, with no sanction or recourse. Is a 23-year old female teacher who is stalked and harassed by 17-year old male students a sociopath too? Is she the same as the guy who kidnaps a ore-pubescent child and commits horrible acts upon them?
I think your sociopath title is appropriate in a lot of cases - particularly the ones we don't hear about where the victim can't say anything because the sociopatch is their parent.
And what about the marketing firms that sexploitate children? Are they sociopaths too? If you own a toy shop that sells these, aren't you guilty of manipulating young girls to be sex objects too?
I get your frustration, but I still see lots of gray - and lots of people who are guilty of crimes against children, even though we haven't classified them as crimes.
