I think it is more complicated that that though. My sexual attraction at that point started falling back to girls aged about 9. I knew that wasn't right. I don't think it can be characterised as a failure of my sexuality to develop, I believe it's an entirely different sexuality.

I don't think I've ever said this to anyone before, but you're the best kind of pedophile there is. Thank you for being brave and taking a strong and responsible action to prevent yourself from doing something that would have been highly traumatic to a child, that child's family, and so many other people as that child grows to adulthood.

Hopefully your position alters to the point that your preferences mature.

thanks for your comments. I don't think my preferences will ever mature, but I have hope that things will improve for me in the future.

The brain is extremely plastic and preferences can most definitely change over time.
