A really interesting article that poses a dilemma for modern Western society. We have become custom to creating paths of acceptance for things which as a result of our genetic makeup. Which is the right thing to do because in most cases we have become a more educated society and understand that differences in skin color, gender and most sexuality has no major impact on who an individual person is beyond that trait. Somebody being gay or straight (both genetic traits) doesn't really impact anybody but that individual.
Pedophila on the other hand by its very nature suggests a potential victim to us. So, what do we do with our instinct to find a path of acceptance for something we know can not be accepted? Many of us fight saying that any 'natural' state is wrong because we know that as soon as that is uttered what has taken place in this thread happens. Comparisons between pedophila and homosexuality are made by those who can't see that actually it makes a stronger case of putting hetero and homosexuality more closely together as naturally occurring and usually victimless sexualities.
As to how it may have been passed genetically, remember that the age of females placed into marriage used to be much younger. The child brides of the past had men attracted enough to them to produce families.
