Adults with child-like traits

Is it possible for a pedophile to be turned on by adults of legal age who possess child-like characteristics? For example, I often find myself attracted to little people (dwarfs, midgets), mentally handicapped people who function at a child-like level, and generally any adult with an overly playful, naive, and optimistic personality. Has any pedophile ever considered adults with such characteristics to be a viable alternative to relationships with children?

I believe so yes, midgets I wouldn't think as they really just look like miniature adults with different proportions. I can see the possibility of attraction would exist with the right characteristics.

No not for me anyway. All the little ppl I have met look like small adults, I find them to be great ppl, just not attractive to me. Not sure about mentally handicapped ppl but to me seems wrong, I would entertain the idea if she was just like really mentally immature though. Personally, grown women that look like children turn me off, But I have a bit of a gap I do not find attractive in girls to women. (about 15-22)

there are some people with a special type of dwarfism that look just like children but i think it's rare

and ellen page is super cute XD

i wouldnt like the mental handicapped thing, young girls can be quite intelligent

Based on personal experience I would have to say, absolutely!

The personality you described is pretty much exactly what I look for in someone, regardless of all else. So that could be an indirect yes.

I like adults and children already and I often enjoy it when each has the qualities I associate with the other but also when they don't.

Although I appreciate the delicate, miniature beauty of pubescence and prepubescence, I also enjoy voluptuous forms as well. Children with wry personalities and curvaceous bodies also appeal and petite adults do too to a lesser extent, though some of these individuals are especially beautiful either in spite or because of these feature.

I like the idea of psychologically childish young adults and teens (though more in a sexual way than as a candidate for a romantic relationship), in the latter case, coupled with a curvaceous body is ideal. This is assuming that they have great affection for me and are fairly pliable.
