I am actually not a real pedophile. I am a limited political pedophile like a political lesbian but am not attracted to actual kids (ACTUAL kids, mind you).

Most child abusers aren't specifically attracted to kids. They just go for the most vulnerable people they can find. That's why they're scum.

Something about this doesn't ring true. There are plenty of vulnerable people a predator could select without the extreme risk that comes with violating minors. To cross that line would require deeper motivation than convenience.

Sounds like a long orbital path back around to pro-MAP propaganda.

And they do attack many different types of vulnerable people. Jimmy Saville attacked disabled people, old people, even corpses. Just watched the Nightstalker case he also abducted kids and attacked adults. Paedophiles are highly likely to torture animals in their youth as well.

You assume minors are a bigger risk but only if you get found out. Kids are much easier to control and keep quiet, this is also why boys are targeted over girls by priests, because the greater shame keeps them quiet. Obviously the physical risk is much lower than attacking an adult.

Arguing they have some kind of compulsion and therefore can't help themselves is far more pro-paedo than realising these are nasty sadists who just want to hurt someone who can't fight back.
