Here's a question. Could pedophilia be considered an orientation? After all, true pedophiles in the classic sense of the term have an exclusive or nearly exclusive attraction to children, as in they have little to no sexual interest in adults. I'm not suggesting that pedophilia shouldn't be considered a disorder but can it also be considered a form of orientation? Given the risk of legitimizing abhorrent behaviour I realize this is scary territory but I raise it simply as food for thought.
