Pedophilia

The article on Pedophilia was written by Joseph Geraci and Donald H. Mader. They define pedophilia as "mutually consensual affective relationships between adults, on the one hand, and pre-pubertal children, those undergoing puberty, and adolescents, on the other, occurring outside the family, and which include a sexual component" (p. 964).

It contains the startling assertion that child pornography does not involve the abuse of children.

Child pornography" is the sharpest point of attack on pedophilia and pedophiles. Included in this attack are the imputation that children are always abused in the production of such images, and the fear that such images will stimulate the abuse of children. It has been shown that this issue has been exploited for political purposes, and the statistics on the amount of such material exaggerated beyond proportion." (p 968).

and points out that "Pedophile organizations have linked their arguments to support of the rights of children".
