That is wrong. The overwhelming majority of child molesters, roughly 90% aren't sexually attracted to children.
Here, let me provide some math, not really for the willfully ignorant like yourself, but for anyone who's reading this thread honestly:
... nicely taken completely out of context. i did not say that all people that sexually abuse children are paedophiles. i said some paedophiles do sexually abuse children and some do not. so, stop pretending that i am being wilfully ignorant when it is you that is twisting everything to suit your own purposes. and if you do not understand that, perhaps you will understand this ...
Some sources report that most offenders who have sexually abused a prepubescent child are pedophiles,[19] but some offenders who have sexually abused a prepubescent child do not meet the clinical diagnosis standards for pedophilia.[20][21]
... in other words, some do. QED.
and absolutely nothing that you say will ever be likely to change the fact that, as far as most people are concerned, paedophilia is synonymous with child sexual abuse. and getting back to my original point, which you keep conveniently overlooking, i would not wish to label anyone a paedophile unless they were guilty of child sexual abuse, precisely because of that fact.
so, stop being so pretentious. stop denying reality. and stop wrongfully insulting people too. and try reading the bit where i paraphrase Elizabeth I again. i do not care about anyone's sexuality. it is their business, not mine. but no one is going to tell me that that black is white. and to try to deny that people in general have a particular perception of the term 'paedophile' is nothing but absurd.
