What.... "peadophillia is a sexual preference"... "these people haven't done anything wrong"
You might as well make the arguement that rape is "a sexual preference"....
If you thinks it's acceptable to refer to someone wanting to have sex with a child as somebody with a "sexual preference"... why not a rapist?
It's fvckn ridiculous and this pathetic movement needs to be called out for what it is.... Garbage!

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Um, what? For starters, there is no such thing as an illegal sexual preference. Secondly, if you're referring to paedophilia, I wasn't comparing it to mental illness, I was saying it is a mental illness.

There's "chemical castration", which basically tries to wipe out all sexual desire and has serious side-effects...

News articles name countries like the UK and Canada, etc. (I would need to look to see in what numbers and what circumstances.) I'm pretty sure you can assault the brain sufficiently to kill off all sexual desire (starting from any type of sexual desire), but indeed this seems a satisfactory solution only in the eyes of psychiatry, etc.

Psychiatry is not useless, but it is very overrated. It mostly fulfills our need to believe that we can manage things which are, in truth, pretty intractable.
