experiencing sexual attraction doesn't make someone a criminal.
I have read in an article that 60% of child sexual abuse is perpetrated by people who aren't attracted to children.
It's not always pedophiles as is the common misconception.
I was born asexual so I sorta understand their circumstances. I can't do anything about my lack of sexual attraction just like pedophiles can't do anything with being attracted to children. They can and they should not act on their sexual desire but demonizing people for something out of their control is pointless. It's not pedophiles but child predators who are the criminals.
Excerpt from Wikipedia that writes better than me:
In popular usage, the word pedophilia is often applied to any sexual interest in children or the act of child sexual abuse, including any sexual interest in minors below the local age of consent or age of adulthood, regardless of their level of physical or mental development. This use conflates the sexual attraction to prepubescent children with the act of child sexual abuse and fails to distinguish between attraction to prepubescent and pubescent or post-pubescent minors. Such use should be avoided, because although some people who commit child sexual abuse are pedophiles, child sexual abuse offenders are not pedophiles unless they have a primary or exclusive sexual interest in prepubescent children, and many pedophiles do not molest children.
Honestly, I cannot understand all those pedos bros
How can you even find a CHILD or even a MINOR attractive!!! That is absolutely disgusting!! You can even find your OWN child attractive
Disgusting like- augh
