I think people suggesting pedophilia as sexual orientation are simply suggesting it is innate to a person and not something which can be "fixed". This does not, in and of itself, condone it, or suggest that a child has the mental capacity to consent to a relationship with an adult. It just recognizes that a pedophile may be "born that way".

I don't have a problem with that. We already know that people who commit sex crimes against children are likely to do it again. This is why we have sex offender registries (though you could argue they've gone too far).

A crime against a child is still a crime against a child. However, understanding that a person is "born that way" could lead to better treatment options and positive outcomes for society.

The comparison to homosexual relationships is stupid. What two consenting adults choose to do is completely up to them. I don't care and you shouldn't either.
