Pedophillia show now be a sexual orientation, how messed up is that?
A saw a video on instagram about a speaker talking about Pedophillia as it is just a sexual orientation for people to accept, like they are humans too and the speaker makes a good effort in order for the audience to sympathise with them, however it just doesn’t work because pedophillia is a moral crime.
I want to break down what pedophillia really is, and I want to differentiate between the feeling and the actions. In the TED Talk video I gained some perspective that Pedos cannot help feel what they feel and can’t control it, which I get. However, the actions of committing pedophilloic acts are a crime in itself and we cannot just ignore that.
Children cannot be viewed sexually at all under any circumstances, they cannot be exposed sexual things in nature as well because such a thing requires a mature mind to understand and in all honesty it robs them of their innocence. Sex should come when the mind develops and is able to comprehend it, children do not possess that level of comprehension because their body isn’t developed to that particular level.
Whenever an adult touches them in their private areas, even children feel uncomfortable but most of them are unable to comprehend those feelings to be able to speak out and say NO. That’s where consent comes in and most children if they even understood what was happening to them wouldn’t consent to this kinds of actions.
Think about it like this, would you consent to something you don’t understand? The answer is NO! You wouldn’t because you don’t know what it is and children cannot be held to that as depending upon the age they haven’t fully comprehended what is RIGHT and WRONG. So based on the above points, pedophillia is, or the action of committing pedophillia should be considered as rape.
Now how do we solve this issue?
We have to understand that this here is a disease, or a mental disorder that needs treatment and not acceptance. The moment we normalise pedophillic acts in society we expose the safety of our children to strangers who would do harm upon them. Because the act of pedophllia is essentially similar to raping minors which is absolutely disgusting and shameful.
There are quite a few mental health institutions/ organisations that are offering help to cure the disorder such as:

Where a group of professionals come together and help them, it gives them professional help to a complex disease and it is for the person who is suffering and their benefit. Another helpful website also includes:
If someone who has identified themselves as a Pedo, we should never hate them outright for feelings they cannot control instead help them to get better and if they show that they want to get better, then we should put more efforts in trying to help them get cured of this disease. No one is born a Pedo, they are made into one.
Good work.
