Exactly. I love that right wingers championing the cause of DOMA are so often found to cheat on their own spouses.

Well, pedophilia is a paraphilia, not a sexual orientation. But yes, were you to meet Sandusky for the first time, it is unlikely you would presume he's a pedophile based on statistics alone.

However, since we know he is one, and what we know about pedophiles who have an adult sexual orientation, odds are he is straight if he has an adult orientation.

Which is what my post a few posts back indicated, is that gays are very unlikely to be pedophiles due to the nature of their attractions. The very thing that makes someone gay makes them very unlikely to be attracted to children.

50% divorce rates, staggering adultery rates (I've heard as high as 70%), 72 day weddings, 52 hour weddings, etc. etc, and 2 men who have been in love and together without ever cheating for decades destroy the sanctity of marriage?

Could anything be more illogical than the sanctity of marriage argument against gays?

No. It's absolutely illogical. Which is why the letter to the Senator was so entertaining.

Thanks in advance.
Dumb post. Read and learn. Thanks in advance...

To call child molestation of a boy by a man "homosexual" or of a girl by a man "heterosexual" is to misunderstand pedophilia. No true pedophile is attracted to adults, so neither homosexuality nor heterosexuality applies. Accordingly, Herek suggests calling men's sexual abuse of boys "male-male molestation" and men's abuse of girls, "male-female molestation."

They aren't heterosexual pedophiles if they are male and love male children - THEY ARE GAYS WHO LUST AFTER FRESH MEAT!

Jesus, you people make the stretch that homosexuals are on the same level as women and minorities, yet you blatantly separate yourselves from pedophilia out of convenience. What a load.

Did you just completely ignore the posts completely proving this wrong? Most pedophiles do not have an adult attraction. Homosexuality is an exclusively ADULT attraction. If they are regressed pedophiles that ALSO have an adult orientation, they are usually straight.

The very thing that makes men gay makes them not attracted to children!! Boys and Girls at that age are fairly similar in body composition. Pedophiles are attracted to the feminine, soft, hairless qualities of children.

Gay men, are attracted to masculinity, which children do no possess. If gay men were attracted to feminine and hairless qualities, they would be straight!

You are the perfect example of why our education system is a failure.

Hardly. They are saying, why are you so determined to prevent us from marrying when your own marriages are filled with infidelity? This senator actively worked against gays getting married but was cheating on her husband with a coworker.
