There was a short documentary about pedophilia showing the opposite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-Fx6P7d21o It's a sensitive subject, but treating pedophilia as something that can be cured with medical intervention is rash. This mindset is akin to treating homosexuality with shock therapy. |

If like homosexuality it's not a mental illness then that means it is either a conscious decision to only be attracted to and target childrent (which I find unlikely) or it is natural occurence somewhere on the human sexual spectrum.
How do we reconcile that with the attitude most people seem to have, that paedophiles need to be severely punished for being what they are? Are they this way from birth like we consider homosexuals to be?
