Sexual Orientation
#50
RE: Sexual Orientation
The reason why I think pedophillia is wrong is because the adult typically pursues it for reasons of narcissistic gratification and has little if any concern over the effects on the pliant -- or unwilling -- child. The child, on the other hand , is less likely to be able see the pedophile's real motives, and is therefore more vulnerable and less able to give informed consent. Pedophilia is an act that almost always results in psychological harm to the child, it seems to me. And I think "better safe than sorry" is a fair approach when it comes to something as vague as "when is a child able to give informed consent?"
