Let us imagine a world where pedophilia isn’t taboo, a world where pedophilia is common and natural and even beautiful. (That was the world of Ancient Greece after all, wasn’t it?) In this world, wouldn’t pedophilia not psychologically scar a child? Wouldn’t it even be a life enhancing experience for the child — to be exposed to sexuality at a young age — for sexuality not to be this mysterious thing that s/he just has to go and try unsafely?

Now obviously practicalities must be noted of. For example, penetrative sex would most certainly harm children. But leaving those considerations for later, first consider this point:

All these sexual taboos we have today are so unnatural — not the taboos themselves, but the being of them. I’m sure all of our first reaction to the notion pedophilia is, like, ewww. The reaction is shared by me too. But let’s give pedophiles some slack. They didn’t choose their orientation; and the very reason they are bad isn’t because there is actually anything wrong with what they want to do, but because of our instinctive reaction to call them bad. Hopefully, as history moves forward, we can become more accepting of one another’s sexual dispositions. Hopefully, as pedophilia becomes more accepted by society, the possible psychological trauma children might receive will lessen. Hopefully, a more accepting day will come.
