You forget all the pedophiles that go after a divorcee for access to her children. About 80% of pedophilia takes place between grown men and young girls. The rape is of innocence, and the sex of the child abused depends upon accessibility. Gay men like things big and competent. Pedophiles like things little and innocent.

Men who molest young girls are closeted homosexuals. Men are attracted to mature females - instinctual, a woman who exhibits feminine features - FERTILE. Young girls do not exude fertility, hetero man have no interest in them.

Really? What made them closeted in the first place?

Societies standards. They hide behind the veil of wives. In Hollywood the term used is Bearde - wife of an alleged gay man who tries to hide his homosexuality. John Travolta, Tom Cruise????

I agree, George T. The only "uncomfortable connection" that I find here is that of the OP's homophobia to his view of child sexual abuse. Child predators have to disguise themselves as something "socially acceptable" and now they simply have more options of disguise, but the amount of pedophiles remains the same..

Media is pushing pedophilia. Children are sexualized at ages that would have seemed beyond perverted in the 1970's.

I am big on the term "consenting adults" but I can't believe how knowledgeable and practiced young adults actually are? There's a problem somewhere, but scaring with diseases and hellfire doesn't seem to be the answer. I agree with Trump, jobs, hard work, education and diverse interests are the answer.

I think you need a firmware update. Cambodia is for underage not Thailand

I don't really want to know where the little girls are...not my bag.

I am afraid numerous studies and my own experience disagrees with your 80% men:girls statistic, in fact its 66:33 the other way - unless you can back it up with an actual source. Happy to be proven wrong

What is it about the term "consenting adults" that eludes your grasp? If boys are more popular here in the United States than they are in Thailand, that changes nothing. It's still child sex trafficking. And if I'm not mistaken, weren't all of the men that were busted at the Super Bowl recently expecting underage girls. That doesn't make them "straight", that makes them pedophiles. They were paying for "underage". There were plenty of "adults" they could've purchased or seduced.

I think you are right. Every pedophile has a perfect type. It is not the same as being homo or hetero, it is similar to the fact that I like tall quiet funny men.

I think the only thing in your original statement that is disputed is the 80% number. I think I read that 66% of the pedophiles target girls. I read a study that pedophiles that target people in the family usually seek girls and use the same girl continuously until she ages out. And then seeks another one. Whereas ones that target boys are more in a position of power (boy scout leader, priest, hockey coach) and have many many victims for a short while. Both really really bad but different effects on the victims.

So girl victims tend to have years of agony whereas the boy victims are used and thrown away..Horrific either way.

Thanks. I'll accept your figures on faith because that's about what I see in the recent busts. Lots of study and profiling is necessary here.
