Pedophile Claims He Was "Born That Way"

The LGBT folks kept repeating it over and over again...."We are born this way, we can't change, you are intolerant of you disagree.....we are born this way, we can't change, you are a hater if you disagree...." and they said it long enough and loud enough that ultimately they believed their own lie and now our entire society also believes that lie.

Quick to take notice, the polygamists are going to copy that success story....and so are the pedophiles....and so are the folks who are "born with" the desire for animal sex.

Today we find the compassionate plea of a pedophile in one of the top liberal news sites.....I WAS BORN THIS WAY is what he claims!!

I’m a pedophile, but not a monster

I'm attracted to children but unwilling to act on it. Before judging me harshly, would you be willing to listen?

I was born without my right hand. As a child, this deformity quickly set me apart from my peers. In public I wore a prosthesis, an intimidating object to other youngsters because of its resemblance to a pirate’s hook.  Even so, I wore it every day; I felt inadequate without it. I was shy, uncoordinated and terrible at sports, all of which put me on the outs with other boys my age. But I was good at drawing and making up stories for my own entertainment, and I spent more and more time in my own head, being a space adventurer or monster wrangler or whatever character I could think up. These would ultimately prove to be useful skills, but for now they only served to further alienate me from other kids.  On top of it all, I still struggled with bladder control—likely due to my heaping pile of insecurities, to which this problem only added more—well into my elementary school years.  

But none of this would compare to the final insult the universe would deal me.  I’ve been stuck with the most unfortunate of sexual orientations, a preference for a group of people who are legally, morally and psychologically unable to reciprocate my feelings and desires.  It’s a curse of the first order, a completely unworkable sexuality, and it’s mine.  Who am I?  Nice to meet you.  My name is Todd Nickerson, and I’m a pedophile.  Does that surprise you?  Yeah, not many of us are willing to share our story, for good reason.  To confess a sexual attraction to children is to lay claim to the most reviled status on the planet, one that effectively ends any chance you have of living a normal life.  Yet, I’m not the monster you think me to be.  I’ve never touched a child sexually in my life and never will, nor do I use child pornography.  [Hey Todd, Dennis here...of course you would never tell us if you HAD touched a child or you DO view child-porn...just saying]

But isn’t that the definition of a pedophile, you may ask, someone who molests kids?  Not really.  Although “pedophile” and “child molester” have often been used interchangeably in the media, and there is some overlap, at base, a pedophile is someone who’s sexually attracted to children. That’s it. There’s no inherent reason he must act on those desires with real children. Some pedophiles certainly do, but many of us don’t. Because the powerful taboo keeps us in hiding, it’s impossible to know how many non-offending pedophiles are out there, but signs indicate there are a lot of us, and too often we suffer in silence.  That’s why I decided to speak up.

The Discovery of an Alternate Sexuality:

Many gays begin to recognize their sexual preferences sometime around puberty, if not before.  For me it was the same.  I was about 12 when the first inklings of a sexual preference bubbled up in me, though at the time I thought little of it.  As I turned 13 it occurred to me that what I initially took as a phase had begun to solidify into something more troubling.  Even so, at this point I could still convince myself that I was within the realm of normalcy.  Then something happened that all but removed my ability to continue this self-denial: my Eureka Moment.  

It’s easy to assume that pedophilia is always the result of some early sexualization or abuse, and certainly there seems to be a connection in some cases.  However, evidence suggests there’s no magic bullet that pedophilia can be traced back to.  For every pedophile who was sexually abused as a child there’s another who wasn’t.  Likewise, most abuse victims never manifest pedophilic desires.  Some researchers surmise that pedophilia can be traced back to genetics.  Others believe the cause is congenital, and still others that it’s environmental.  Personally, I think the ultimate cause is likely some combination of those, and that it varies from person to person.  

Another issue is the role feelings of inadequacy play in forming our sexuality.  Pedophilia may not arise from such fears (otherwise there’d be a lot more pedophiles), but those fears can certainly reinforce it.  I think it’s safe to say that many pedophiles have deep-seated feelings of inferiority in one way or another, or at least we did when our sexuality was forming, and this becomes a downward spiral during puberty and beyond.  Anything can be the trigger of this: disabilities, weight issues, or just general feelings of unattractiveness to peers.  These feelings can be influential on one’s developing sexuality, such that even the severe cultural taboo is not enough to override it.  Indeed, the taboo itself can negatively influence these vulnerable children.

After graduation I fell into the deepest pit of despair imaginable, one that lasted several years, and I’ve only just begun to pull myself out of it.  You can’t experience that much blind terror and pain for that long without being seriously impacted by it.  I still worked out every other day, so I was hurting constantly, since depression saps your brain of the feel-good chemicals that helps to counteract pain; but I felt something, and that was better than the emotional numbness that had overtaken me.  Thus, my project to remake myself into a regular person a complete failure, I retreated inward like a kicked dog, often spending days on end in my bedroom.  At the nadir of my depression I was contemplating suicide daily; some days I could think of little else.  I found some relief in opiates, which I had to obtain illegally because doctors won’t prescribe them for depression and anxiety.  The occasional hydrocodone gave me a moment of respite from the agony I was going through.  I’d tried antidepressants, but they were a joke.  


In the midst of that dark era in my life, I discovered an unhealthy pedophile forum.  Nothing illegal was happening there, but many of its most influential members were pro-contacters, meaning they believed that sex with children was theoretically OK and supported the elimination of age of consent laws.  That forum still exists and I won’t name it here, but suffice it to say, I found myself taking up the same pro-contacter chants, if only to feel like I belonged somewhere.  At the time it was all that was available in terms of an actual pedophile community, and I had nothing left to lose by joining the cause, misguided though it was, and even decided to out myself on that forum.  Over the ensuing years, though, I was often at odds with the pro-contacters and flitted in and out of their clique; I wanted desperately to be friends with people who shared my sexual orientation, even if they held crazy beliefs, but I could never quite reconcile with their viewpoint.

You see how this is going to play out?  The pedophiles will first start referring to their perverse feelings as "my sexual orientation."  This will be a way that it can be brought mainstream because WHO could be against anyone's sexual orientation.

The pro-contact pedophiles, to whom he is referring, are those folks who believe that kids are sexual from soon after birth and that men and women who are "born with" the desire to be sexual with kids should BE THE ONES TO SHOW AND TEACH THESE KIDS their sexuality....so they can embrace it!!

Soon you will have some pedophiles pointing to how the ancient Greeks loved sodomizing boys and next you will have someone point to the Afghan men who enjoy screwing boys and someone will say, "How can if be wrong if it's been in some cultures for centuries?"  Next someone will say, "We need society to change with the times and the fact that lots of 12 year old girls and boys are enjoying internet porn is MORE PROOF they need to have a sexual outlet with a man who can teach them!"

And finally someone will say, "Who are YOU to tell me what's right or wrong?  Judge not lest ye be judged....you intolerant hater!!"

And then one day, the Supreme Court may rule that the "sexual orientation" of a pedophile is a recognized and protected orientation and that sex with minors (8 yrs and older) is no longer something that Americans can discriminate against, and that if it's good enough for many Muslim nations then it should be good enough for Muslim-Americans...or any other American....as along as the minor's parents agree.

"But Dennis, that could NEVER happen...this is America!"

Yep, that's EXACTLY what the States said about gay marriage just a handful of years ago...when ONE MAN AND ONE WOMAN were unanimously added to numerous state constitutions.....until the Supreme court threw it all down and went around the lawmakers and citizens....and we all woke up to legalized gay marriage.
