So I suffer because I like these. But wouldn't I be attracted to others who have a common interest that aren't thses things? I'm just trying to understand and not ruin the points you made.

I suppose, but it would really depend on the degree of it. I've seen a lot of pedophiles who say they enjoy being around children because they have similar interests like playing games and what-not. It's just a theory.


It's just a theory, and doesn't seem like a crazy theory. I wonder why people don't do studies related to pedophilia? Hm.
I'm alone by choice. It's just not my choice.

ReVamp's theory is actually pretty good. I tend to like more children that resemble me in personality. Although, it's not attraction per se. I got attracted to those that are exactly the same opposite as me.

Hehe. You see, I don't think games and animes are made to adolescents or adults. Most of them are aimed at children, specially the games I play. Although, the animes I see, aren't made to the younger public, but, eh...

I don't play with toys or cartoons but I'm always off in my own world for some reason and I really think this is part of it. I don't like to socialize much because in my mind, it "dilutes" my world as I see it, the more people I know, I inevitably have to compromise something I enjoy or stifle it around them. I avoid getting caught up in social media or anything like that as well, who am I showing myself off for? For the longest time I even avoided getting a cell phone because I didn't want to be "connected" or have my life dependent on it like so many people do. I wish though that I was more like everyone else though, because it makes life difficult to try to maintain this bubble I'm perpetually in and do very much with life because I don't know what a normal existence is beyond it. Everything I have reflects it, the music I like is from before I was born as is the car I drive. My house looks like something out of Mad Men. I have an appreciation for simplicity and conciseness, I think it's beautiful, and generally kids, or in my case little girls fall in that category.

I found through experience, that I love to be them because they're the same way, they just do what pleases them and the things that interest them or catch their eye, that adults would usually not give a second look at, amazingly get to me as well. We aren't always into the same things, but I feel this parallel where they just go about their day the same way I do. It was really cool when I first felt that. Adult women are usually always caught up in one thing or another or too busy living for other people's approval or status. That's not to say I shun all adults, but I feel this soul connection with some kids, and even though I like girls I've felt it from both.

OMG YES! I still have a ton of my teddy bears and Barbies! When I'm depressed I play with them or color. Cartoons are the best. I have all the classic 90's cartoons in my Netflix queue. I also tend to dress like a kid. I relate to children more, especially emotionally.

Oh, but old cartoons are pretty cool. Specially "The Coyote" or "Willy E. Coyote and the Road Runner"!

What? o.O. This is ground breaking. I never thought of it that way. So maybe I'm a pedophile because I never wanted to leave my childhood, thus I'm attracted to what I would've been when I was a child. This sounds interesting and exciting!



I also thought your misinterpretation of ReVamp's suggestion was more intriguing than what he actually meant. I feel like I still have the budding romantic/sexual curiosity of a child. Sexually, adults seem a world away.

Anime and video games. Yea, anime rocks. Just started a new one. Seems like it might be interesting.

Kind of like you have the mind of a child still, so your sexual preference didn't change. Wouldn't go for all pedos but defiantly fits some.

I feel like I only get turned on because I know how wrong it is and that I shouldnt be, and it just gives me that rush.
Plus I don't do anything you mentioned.
Just different types I guess.

I don't play with toys or anything but I really like the Naruto anime :)

And I absolutely LOVE hello kitty, but I don't buy it for myself. My daughter's bedroom and most of her clothes are hello kitty, and she doesn't even know what it is lol. :)
