What kind of person isn't attracted to minors?
Something doesn't vibe well with that for me.

Just because kids are cute & cuddly & funny and I want to be surrounded by them all day, that doesn't make me a weirdo does it?
I thought I was being a good person.

Hell, you just love kids. Nothing wrong wit that at all! The opposite would be way worse.

Maybe what I'm trying to say is MAPs have the right idea, trying to make the world a more child-friendly to live in.
As opposed to those who are probably lying when they say they're not attracted to minors, in some way, shape, or form.

When I see a cute boy, I wonder how everyone isn’t attracted to him? How am I the deviant one?

Exactly, thank you terminally_unique
Phobic of cute boys or something? sheesh.

I don't mind if people don't understand our attraction to minors. I don't understand an attraction to hairy men. I don't understand an attraction to women with big boobs and lots of makeup. I don't understand an attraction to toddlers, either.

We're allowed to be different and have different likes. Or least we should be allowed to.

I used to think that everyone was attracted to 8 yr olds like I am, and society just collectively chose to pretend otherwise.

This isn't true of course, but I think many people are attracted to adolescents more than they care to admit. Maybe even the majority of people are attracted to 16 year olds. Pretty sure there is research that indicates this could be the case.

Sexual attraction to prepubescents and toddlers though? That is almost certainly a sexual minority.

6.6% of men admitted that they'd have sexual contact with an under 14 year old if no-one found out. Even for under 10 year olds the rate is 4%. In addition, 15.1% of respondents have sexual feelings towards children and teenagers (under 18). Among them were 10.2% of respondents who had sexual feelings for children but said they had not acted on them. Meanwhile about 4.2% of men had offended despite no sexual feelings towards children, with 4.9% of men having sexual feelings towards children who admit they have offended. Offending in this study included "deliberately viewing pornography featuring underage people; flirting or sexual conversations online, using a webcam in a sexual way or in-person sexual contact with a minor; and paying for online sexual interactions, images or videos involving a person under 18."

Although this was published by the very anti-MAP Michael Salter, I have no reason to doubt its veracity. The sample was randomly taken from the community and involved just under 2000 men.

I have always been attracted to minors, always will be.
