Is it normal that i am attracted to little girls?

I will probably get a lot of hate for this but ... Paedophiles doesn't chose this just as homosexuals doesn't chose what they are attracted to.

As long as a person know that he or she would hurt the children and never act on it and stick to hentai porn or role-play with women who looks younger I see no harm in this.

I have some sexual desires that I would not act on since I know that it's wrong and would hurt others that can't consent to it. (Not children for my part)

People who always talk about hating pedophiles are a bit suspect

I love how most of the post on this thread think that thoughts should be illegal. I wonder if you people have ever tried to monitor your own thoughts. If it were the way you want it every time a person looks at another person and admires them is would be the same as having sex with them. Every teenager would be a sex offender. Men and women would be committing adultery everyday. Oh, and even thinking something like "I'd like to kill that guy" would be the same as murder.

Is it normal to be a pedophile?

No.

Is it normal for a pedophile to feel like you do (i.e. not want to hurt anybody)?

I suspect that it is, but it's hard to say since people in your position have such a big disincentive to talk about it publicly.

I apologize for this but:

I love little girls they make me feel so good
I love little girls they make me feel so bad
When they're around they make me feel
Like I'm the only guy in town
I love little girls they make me feel so good

They don't care if I'm a one way mirror
They're not frightened by my cold exterior

They don't ask me questions
They don't want to scold me
They don't look for answers
They just want to hold me
Isn't this fun
Isn't this what life's all about
Isn't this a dream come true
Isn't this a nightmare too

(Repeat first verse)

They don't care about my inclinations
They're not frightened by my revelations

Uh oh take a second take
Uh oh it's a mistake
Uh oh I'm in trouble
Uh oh the little girl was just to little
Too little, too little, too little
Isn't this what life's all about
Isn't this a dream come true
Isn't this a nightmare too...

And I don't care what people say
And I don't care what people think
And I don't care how we look walking down the street

(Repeat Chorus)

(Repeat first verse)

The song is "Little Girls" by Oingo Boingo. But yeah as long as you keep your urges under control, you're golden. Stay gold, OP. Don't let your desires taint your golden hue.

No it's not normal. You need therapy to make sure you don't act on these desires. Ever.

To OP you are not alone. I to suffer from pedophilia. I also refuse to harm a child. Here is my post if it will help.

Also if you would like to speak to some people who also suffer the same, go to Virtuous Pedophiles http://virped.org/

That just shows your lack of knowledge in today's times. How old are you? I and others, 100% aware pedos don't need to look the 'part' to be one. You said people relate them to a mustache and greasy hair. Not true. With things like any recent news, the internet and lots of public outing of pedophiles (Enforcement officers, people who have 'nice' and 'helpful' seeming careers, working with children) it's actually a lot of suburban family types, who also think they did not fit a specific profile. In my experience with close friends AND studying, it's always the ones' you don't expect that were the predatory type/deemed unsafe. This doesn't place any pedophile in any superior box--far from 'typical' looking creeps taking children in the streets, committing an act of molestation, in a run down city. Same person internally. Just different ways they go about it and different risks in acting on their desire.
You seem to take pride in not acting on this or seeming harmful. As if fears of prison, being outed, life being ruined etc makes for great justification as to why you just haven't acted. Since it's evident it's not mental strength keeping you from doing it. You're complacent with the feelings of, you even ASK if it's normal, hoping to find someone just like you. Not a question of "IIN to fear help for this".. For most pedophiles, they just think they're not that dumb guy who is going to "go and get caught"..

Like I said, your mere presence IS enough, because mentally you are not a safe person to be around and you take no proactive measure to find the cause of a perversion. As said; you live with it.. you're totally complacent with it. No one demands get therapy from someone with a notebook, there ARE plenty of things you could do for yourself. For the lazy/weak minds.. "It's not that easy".. That's a lie and cover-up. Sexual release causes good feelings, so people with deviant thoughts will choose to indulge as opposed to stop or figure out the root. Which is an easier than people like to pretend. If someone has UNPLEASANT feelings; depression, stress etc. they'll go to worlds end/spend thousands of dollars, research until the sun comes up, just to make it stop/figure out what is WRONG with them.

Sexual release just feels too good and males are much more unpredictable/prone to senseless mistake with any sexual urge. We know this. Do you think every person sitting with their 25-life all thought they'd be there? Any rapist, person who violated a child/even killed them just to keep it a secret and impulsive mistake all thought that was the intended plan?
Just like any desire of that nature, it's only a matter of time before you make any mistake, big or small, that a lot do. Even downloading porn, there's a COP with his life in ruins right now because of just that, which he even claimed too, was a thought/spiraled into an immense desire that he acted on. Because it always does, for those who won't acknowledge it as any issue. Just something you justify as being born that way?
You won't live your entire life simply 'thinking' and just fantasizing. So you are always a threat, as long as you're living with it. You claim you don't indulge in kiddie porn, even though you name specific porn category the fantasy, you stated your attraction, so in any public situation, you are doing/thinking of something that caused the revelation you enjoy "little girls" (as you put it) So an undercover pedo, thinks just thoughts and feelings are ok, huh? No. It should be OK and parents shouldn't be worried, right? I can guarantee not one single parent would choose having you around their children, knowing your attraction, not one. It has nothing to do with apparent paranoia, it is common sense and taking every measure to keep their child safe and innocent. Knowing you'd potentially be getting a hard on and fantasizing about their child later at home, is just a disgusting act and feeling for any parent.
Pedophiles do not deserve the common decency/respect of, "But they should be helped and not chastised" -- No. They should act like the grown people they ARE and take control of their own sexual fantasy and control it/diminish the problem, because there is absolutely one and it's all choice. If you ever have children/a daughter, I assume she's 100% safe and it is somehow different.
I've myself, since the age of 8, had my own sexual demons--internally--that bleed into my adulthood, but I took control of even the mere thought, every single time it would become a thought. EVERYTIME. I absolutely had no control of what it specifically was/why it popped in my head; because that can be nature vs nurture, but I never made the choice to indulge in any fantasy regarding it, never kept the desire alive, and would never choose to keep it a desire. To diminish a sexual urge, that is unnatural in every single way (and not something you're just "stuck" or born with) is all choice. There's a multitude of reasons people can have unnatural "attractions to" (that aren't 'normal'; ie, pedophilia, violence, necrophilia, incest, bestiality ect) but there IS innate traits within people that separate a deviant person from a sensible person. Innate keyword, if you're not one who can find the knowledge about themselves and have the strong will to conquer things that are wrong, cause grief, a large amount of guilt and or shame (or don't feel any of that at all, even while fantasizing the acts against an adolescent) psychologically, you are also not someone who will live so sensibly/by any standard of completely civil /right actions your ENTIRE life.

Any debate regarding Original Poster's claim, makes me cringe. Although the poster claims, "I don't intend harm" and states they avoid kiddie-porn, it's just unlikely. You know you're attracted to them, so with this admission it's evident you commit some form of release. Even if just 'fantasy', no younger attractive female is 'safe' in your presence. So you stare at them in public and jerk off to it later and that makes it ok? Just because you don't act on it, by risking your freedom and life in prison, doesn't make you a superior and controlled person with a perversion. It just makes it clear, like most predatory people, you keep it to your thoughts. Which is good, but the ONLY good thing about this. Yes, I said predatory. Any young female you look at, you are removing their innocence in YOUR mind and making them an object of SEXUAL desire, that is your own choice and ruins everyday life for mothers and fathers around this world, because people like you exist, causing them those fears/worry they have in public -- keeping that extra careful eye over their young hoping their child isn't being preyed on or in this case, fawned over by a grown adult. Deviant behavior is NOT justified with the claim they're born that way or it's 'mental wiring'. Just like a lot of dark fantasies people have, nature vs nurture is so very relevant. Most people are just too weak to take the time to solve sexual issue, because sexual activity is enjoyable, much like drug addicts and their failures/justification to not stop. So many people have been victim to their innocence being ripped away by selfish, sexual predators, my best friend's included, amongst so MANY others. What's more frustrating, is these types who you know lurk the grocery stores isles, malls, pta meetings-- and think just because they don't 'act' on it, that their lusting thoughts they take home make it ok. Truly a shame people are too mentally lazy, weak and SELFISH to gain control of their senses and issues and conquer them as opposed to stay content/complacent with them and indulge. All for nothing.

As long as you don't act on these thoughts, you're not a bad person. For your own sake and for the sake of others, it would be best to talk to someone professional so you can get to the root of why you feel this and you can move on with your life and be happy.

Girls that young haven't gone through puberty and so don't have secondary sexual characteristics (aka a mature female body). Why would you be attracted to a female with no tits or ass or hips or feminine body at all?

But their torsos look like males, that's a turnoff, even at 10.
