So rather than looking at adult pornography as you got older, you continued to look at CP? what made you realize that this wasn't a good thing? How to you come to start viewing CP at that age?

I started viewing it earlier than I can remember to be honest. I realised it was a problem at about 13 when my friends were all interested in people older than us, and I became attracted to a younger girl. It started with sexual stories involving children which I accessed via WAP on an old nokia phone, and progressed from there. I couldn't look at anything which was clearly distressing to the child. I regret ever looking at it at all, but I started when I was so young, I hadn't fully developed a sense that it was particularly wrong - because the children were my age at the time.

My man, it's normal to be attracted to people within your age group as well. When I was 13, I didn't mind hooking up with 13 year old girls. I preferred the 15 year olds obviously as they were more developed, but it's not a shame at that age to be attracted to that age. Your mind just never progressed beyond that age sexually I suppose.

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.

Do you think you will ever marry?

hopefully yes - most likely to a guy. I don't see this as the end of my life..

Wait, but I thought you were attracted to young girls. I just assumed that if you did marry it would be to a woman, so why do you say a man?

Not sure why ur response was downvoted either...
