Excellent points. Pedophilia is just being attracted to children (prepubertal specifically), and requires no further action. Does this mean that it should be put in the same class as hetro and homosexuality? An unconcious attraction, something that you are born with?
Homosexuality has become acceptable in our society, where once it was perverse. Why should pedophilia be considered perverse when it too, is simply a desire, unchangeable as it is, like homosexuality and hetrosexuality? Of course, there are many reasons for minors not to have sex, as stated above, however, should the desire itself be considered wrong, when other desires are not?
