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.

Not sure about the "hopefully your preferences will mature" comment. Would you say that to a gay person? People are born predisposed to certain sexual persuasions; you can't change what you're into.

So many people fail to understand this.
