Is pedophilia the most taboo paraphilia?

Post by pedo233 »

I saw a survey and there were more people who admitted having sexual fantasies about animals than children below 12. Only 1-3% of men report to have sexual attraction to children below 12. I saw in a survey only 3% reported to have any sexual attraction to girls 15 and below. Something is really off about this.

Additionally, there is a subreddit on reddit called r/morbidquestions, people discuss things like necrophilia or zoophilia all the time, but posts about pedophilia aren't allowed. Is pedophilia considered the most taboo paraphilia?

It's the one with the heaviest laws and punishments, and sure, it's a banned topic almost everywhere, even on twitter or other platforms where actual nazi content or calls for violence are rampant. It sometimes feels like freedom of speech has an exception on pedophilia for some reason.

According to any anecdotal, common sense and empirical evidence I have access to, yes. It may be contentious with nepiophilia, but they're about equal.

I'm not sure what you mean, below 12 seems fair enough. Below 15 I'd probably expect some more, but I think the primary attraction is 15-17 which seems over like 30%.

Neither of those are contenders, zoophilia is much more common and obviously less taboo since it's an animal and not a human, so the harm isn't cared about as much. Not only that, but it includes fully developed animals rather than baby animals, which gives some more ambiguity to how harmful it may actually be.

Necrophilia, I mean they're dead. They can't be hurt. A child can.

A lot of Zoophilia involves young animals.

Oftentimes, furries and otherkin also adopt the persona of a young animal - gays sometimes pretend to be juvenile dogs to engage in sexual fantasies based on submission.
