Serwa it seems like it's headed in that direction. This thought path leads to normalization of the feelings or urges and sympathy from others. Then everyone will be trying to claim they had a natural disposition to harming others. How about there are just bad people who do horrible things.

I don't care It should still be a punishable crime no matter what. If they can't control their sexual urges towards children then they need to be jailed, sterilized something. I am not for giving them an excuse to rape children.

I remember reading about this one guy who was a pedophile, zoophile, and incest fetishist. Claimed he'd never harm a child. Well he a wife who KNEW he had those issues but STILL wanted to have children with him!! Because she "trusted" him. I kid you not. Smh. Whenever I think about that, my blood boils

Even if there is a genuine genetic link, these kind of urges (or rather acting on these urges) should never be normalized. There seems to be a genetic link in serial killers as well, in the sense that a lot of them will show signs early on (abusing animals during childhood, a lack of empathy, etc,.) and they are resistant to treatment just the same. Does that mean that we, as a society are to say, that hey, people like Jeffrey Dahmer can't help it, it's part of their genetic makeup, so let's be soft on them??? Whether there is a genetic link to pedophilia or not, it doesn't change the fact that it's an anomaly and it should NEVER be treated as acceptable. And it's one thing to have urges, it's another thing to consummate the act, knowing that you are harming children. This is such a slippery slope, it's scary. As for pedophilia being more prevalent in white communities, I don't believe that either. Black cultures probably feel a greater sense of shame about it and are less likely to report it. And there are also plenty of cultures around the world where this is accepted in the form of marrying prebuscent girls to old bastards three times their age. That is pedophilia as well, only in a form that is culturally accepted.

I don't think the intention is to normalize the behaviors. There are a lot of things people are predisposed to genetically, but they're still held accountable for their actions. Especially if it violates the rights of someone else. Because a child cannot legally consent, a pedophile, even if they can't control their urges, will be prosecuted. There are people who due to biological factors are prone to violence. It doesn't save them from going to jail when they murder someone. People don't think about the fact that we are our brains. All behavior has a cause. Whether it's a long life of abuse creating changes in our brains, genetic predisposition affecting the ways things wired, etc.

It may not be the scientists' intention but there is a real danger that it could bear on decisions in a courtroom, though. Best believe you'll have lawyers trying to manipulate that finding. It reminds me of an old episode of Law & Order SVU where a pedophile was trying to make this exact same argument as a justification as to why he and others raped children. He wanted it to be called "grown-up child love" *sic*. This could eventually have an impact on jurisprudence if this is proven and that is scary beyond words
