Quick pet peeve

Yes, that's interesting. I mean, I can imagine having urges with no outlet is going to cause all kinds of problems. So it's a matter of distinguishing this from actual other direct effects.

There's another common misconception I've noticed, which is to equate paedophilia with attraction to any children under the age of consent (but older than say 12). This is ridiculous, because it would mean someone is a paedophile in one country and then suddenly isn't in the next. Obviously the age of consent is there for a good reason, but that's a moral issue, not a psychological one.
