the thing about pedophilia being "queer" is one of those conversations i feel annoyed with every time i see it happening

if you say "pedophilia is queer", i would probably feel the need to correct you, because i don't think that maps belong in the lgbtq club

at the same time though, queer is just a word to mean abnormal/different. so if you look at it that way, yes, pedophilia and other map attractions are queer because they certainly aren't normal

@grumpy >pedophilia and other map attractions are queer because they certainly aren't normal

Uhhhhh chief, it IS normal, studies show high, high percentage of males are attracted to girls 12 and up. Attraction/= action so let's not lie about what's normal.

@Jazzy_Butts @grumpy pedophilia is the primary attraction to prepubescents aged roughly 4-11 and the studies you mentioned only show a 70% as strong penile reaction to being exposed to sexual characteristics of that age group in comparison to sexual characteristics of older demographics so by all means pedophilia is 'abnormal'
@Jazzy_Butts @grumpy also I'm pretty sure the sample sizes were pretty low so I'm not sure how impactful the effect sizes are although my personal theory is that people are generally able to be sexually attracted to all genders, species and age groups and that socialization gets rid of that.
