Pedophilia is a mental illness that causes someone to be attracted to prepubescent bodies, it doesn't overwrite Sex/Gender preferences.
There's a lot of studies that actually show it
does overwrite sex/gender preferences, actually. Because a female and male kid look pretty similar. In fact, I think something like 90% of male abusers of boys were entirely straight in their adult life.
The data I found (and I did this a while ago), was there was basically two groups of pedos, fixated pedos and lapsed pedos. Think of lapsed Pedos as the creepy high school teacher. Still wrong, but not as bad as the ones who target the young kids, who are the fixated ones.
The Lapsed ones cared more about the sex of the victim, (and gays did have an outsized problem with this IIRC, but not a stupidly huge out of proportion problem). Given it was an old data set (I try to use old data sets for stuff like this to avoid woke bias as much as possible), my guess is that this has been somewhat resolved by gay culture normalizing.
For the fixated Pedos, it was 90/10 straight to gay for boys (again, IIRC, I'll re-look up the study). My guess is that it would normalize to the actual gay straight ratio if they had access to a truly representative sample. Since people don't just volunteer that they are Pedos, you gotta interview convicted ones. But which pedos are the hardest to catch? The ones that keep it in the family, especially a father doing it to a girl. And those are very likely to be straight data points.
In fact, I'd point out that rape in general seems to not care about sexuality. Prison rape is a known thing, and it's not just gay people who do it. Some just want to cause pain and humiliation.
you know if they just said this guy was nuts and wasn't representative of the rainbow crew this would all be over by now. Its the secrecy and overt cover up that makes this look so bad.
See, I don't think they
could. Conservatives have it down: they condemn both the ideology and the killer, and can do it without thinking, as conservatives don't actually share any of the core beliefs with the crazed killers.
Leftists don't have such an easy time. The anti-white hate and the gender ideology is not something they feel they can condemn, as many actually believe it.
It's funny that having sex with young boys predates anything resembling the modern laundered conception of "gay" by millennia. Male homosexuality wasn't separated from boy sex until what, the 80s? 90s? Pederasty was the basic model for male homosexuality in the West, the Sinosphere, the Islamic world, and probably everywhere else throughout history, and almost all the survivors from the gay rights era today were pederasts themselves or at least eromenos.
Treating "Gay" as the overarching group, and pretending alternatives to be deviants from that certainly is swallowing the academic and media narrative whole. By all evidence "gayness" is just a recent offshoot from the longstanding pederast movement, a sort of self-sustaining social delusion preceding the much larger scale social delusions today.
Eh, not really. The long history of pederastry was mixed up with gays, but it was frequently done by men who were considered straight in their adult life.
As for it being split off from boy sex, that was the case for a long while in the west at least. A gay culture for chiefly adults (teenagers definitely got into it to, tbc, but it wasn't centered around man/boy stuff), existed in the west for at least a hundred years, I'd say. The final split came in the 70s/80s, when NAMBLA formed and then was cast out of the gay movement.
What's happened is that as Gays began to be able to integrate into society and live openly, the law and morality has actually started applying to them. In the late 80s/early 90s, there was no expected monogamy. Prior to that, relationships were exceptionally rare. Now gays are marrying, not having casual sex, etc. It's a huge improvement on culture that some queers
hate. They can't stand that 'gay culture' is dying, and just becoming a lisp with sass, not constant orgies in a tractor trailer near the mob run bar.
