Scholars on pedophilia

[jcole]

Here is a fuller explanation of the TedX talk that took place in Germany by a med student. Hardly a left wing conspiracy to white traffic children:
From the speaker:

She cited the tenth revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems [[ICD 10) for the description of pedophilia as the “sexual preference for preadolescent children” and pointed to unspecified research that differentiates between child sexual abusers and pedophiles.

Let me very clear here. Abusing children is wrong without any doubt. But a pedophile who doesn’t abuse children has done nothing wrong. I want to quickly summarize where we are at the moment. According to current research, pedophilia is an unchangeable sexual orientation, just like for example heterosexuality. No one chooses to be a pedophile. No one can cease being one. The difference between pedophilia and other sexual orientations is that living out this sexual orientation will end in a disaster.

From APA

Pedophilia is not defined by the American Psychiatric Association [[APA) as a sexual orientation: it is classified as a disorder in the fifth and most current revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders [[DSM 5). Discussions that attempt to equate pedophilia with sexual orientation have been contentious, primarily because of the false belief that members of the LGBT community are predisposed to child molestation. Those who argue against civil rights for the LGBT community often cast those rights as a slippery slope to legalizing child sexual abuse or bestiality.

are you thinking the left is automatically recognized as being pedos?

It would not be hard to make that case!

I was simply getting ahead of what the normal pejoratives are on here.
