I had a thought.
It's nothing serious, nothing that well thought through, and I don't really have any reliable sources. But it's still food for thought.
A thought about pedophilia.

I saw an interview some time back, with a woman who had been an overeater, and how she got out of it. She explained a bit about what it was like, why she did it and what it took to get her out of it.
She explained that there were psychological problems that made her want something sweet for comfort, which she could get from eating.
Psychologists then helped her understand herself better, and in the end didn't need the sweetness.

I just thought, for a bit. I have a heavy addiction for Pepsi Max.
Pepsi Max is sweet. Could I be some kind of overeater?

Then it hit me.
Children are "sweet".
Could it be... ? Pedophilia is something much closer to overeating, than it is to being a sexuality of its own?

Identity crisis, and feeling a need for comfort. They all match. But did they come after the pedophilia, or are they the cause?

Food for thought, food for thought.
Just felt like letting that out here. What do ya think?
