Does this make me pedophile?

Question

I have crushes on boys who are 13 and 14. They are so sweet and kind. I like to hang out with them, but I am 20 years old. I would like to kiss them, but that's morally wrong. Is it? I look and act young, but I am not. I mean I am in college and I want to be a teacher. I want to teach middle school, but I don't know if I should if I am a pedophile.

I am kind of scared of guys my age because I am scared they just want s*x. I am scared they will take advantage of me. I am scared of the bestial side of men. I don't know what to do. I need help, but I really like 13, 14 and 15 year old boys, especially skaters or punkers. They are delicious. Am I a pedophile?

Answer 1

No. No. You should not be ashamed of your feelings. There is nobody in your life that will trust more than yourself and you should never  let others decide what is or isn't normal for you. You should stick to the major that you want. You do have to be aware of the possible risks of starting relationships younger boys. Many parents would be eager to bring charges against you for any contact they would consider "inappropriate". You might be surprised to know that your feelings are alot more common than you think. It's just one of those things people don't talk about. It would be less risky if you were to seek friendships from boys who were not in a school that you taught in, because there is less possiblity of entrapment.

Answer 2

yes, it kind of makes you a pedophile, if we use the dictionary definition of a pedophile. but i don't think there's anything wrong with that, but our society doesn't accept that.

Answer 3

Goddess no! I think a lot of the laws concerning s*x in this country are archaic and left over from the Judeo-Christian mythology. Face it, most people have consensual sexual encounters as young as 12 or even younger. If you were 24 and wanted to have s*x with an 18 y.o., it would be the same amount of difference in years. So what's the difference? Maybe emotionally, you are on the same level as a 14 y.o.. Did you know in some countries, like Spain and Sri Lanka, the age of sexual consent is as young as 12 y.o.?

In Pagan times, they were much more sensible about such things. Sapho's erotic poems were to her 14 y.o. lover for instance.

So personally, I don't think you're sick.  

Answer 4

GET HELP NOW!  And change your major.  If you are playing games with the question, don't ever do it again.

YES, if what you say is the truth you are a pedophile and you have other problems as well.
