Pedophilia is in the same category as homosexuality or heterosexuality.  It is a “sexual orientation”… according to two different psychologists testifying before a parliamentary session in Canada.

Doctors Vernon Quinsey and Dr. Hubert Van Gijseghem…

“Pedophiles are not simply people who commit a small offense from time to time but rather are grappling with what is equivalent to a sexual orientation just like another individual may be grappling with heterosexuality or even homosexuality.”

“True pedophiles have an exclusive preference for children, which is the same as having a sexual orientation. You cannot change this person’s sexual orientation. He may, however, remain abstinent.”

“There is no evidence that this sort of preference can be changed through treatment or through anything else.”
