Is it normal?

Is it normal to have fleeting upsetting thoughts of molesting children? Perhaps I am too hard on myself. I am attracted to women my age, but constantly have thoughts of reaching out and grabbing children. I just want this to ######6 stop, but I feel my thoughts have some sexual relevance...but I ######6 hate them. I want to be free from them.

This could be more related to OCD than anything else, Senseless_Suffering. The classic OCD is when a person has a distressing thought enter their head and then they cannot stop thinking about it. The thought makes them feel guilty and scared, and the more they try to ignore it, the more OCD their behaviour becomes surrounding the thought. Let me know what you think.
