They can insist on being a legitimate sexual orientation as much as they want, in fact, I am personally convinced that this is certainly not a rare anomaly since quite a few individuals have paedophilic tendencies.

However, 1. Children can never give consent, neither are children capable of processing sexuality, even if post-pubescent children are physically capable of sexual exchanges, their minds may not be ready to process that and result in long-term to permanent mental dysfunctions. Age of consent is very important. 2. Children are not a sex, but a group so I wonder how they would manage to fit into the category of sexuality.

It's not a sexuality. Its a paraphilia like autogynephilia, voyeurism or exhibitionism. It's a form of sadism in most cases, the vast majority of child porn is torture.
