I'm no expert, here, but it looks to me that ALL the statistics on homosexuality and pedophilia are highly controversial.
Consider this:
You write: "95% - 97% of all pedophiles are heterosexuals and 3%-5% are homosexuals."
But since homosexuals are only about 2% of the population, that in itself--- if accurate --- would suggest that homosexuals are perhaps more likely than heterosexuals to prey on pre-pubescent children.
Then there's this (from www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=27431):
"And Gary Schoener, a clinical psychologist who has been diagnosing and treating clergy abuse for 28 years, told Salon.com, "There are far more heterosexual cases than homosexual.
"In terms of sheer numbers, that may be true. But in terms of numbers of children abused per offender, homosexuals abuse with far greater frequency; and boys, research shows, are the much-preferred target.
"Baldwin says evidence he examined disproves the assertion that child molestation is more prevalent among heterosexuals. Both he and Reisman found that media coverage of adult homosexual abuse of minors is also slanted.
"The National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association (NLGJA) recently boasted that although homosexuals are less than two percent of the population, three-fourths of the people who decide the content of the front page of the New York Times are homosexual," Reisman wrote. "
I found Dr. Jeffey Satinover's conclusions of interest: that there are fare more cases of heterosexual pedophilia since they comprise the vast majority of the population, but the behavior itself is more prevalent among homosexuals, who make up a much smaller sector of the populace.
(Dr. Jeffrey Satinover has practiced psychoanalysis and psychiatry for more than nineteen years. He is a former Fellow in Psychiatry and Child Psychiatry at Yale University and a past president of the C. G. Jung Foundations. He holds degrees from MIT, the University of Texas, and Harvard University.)
Yes, you're quite correct. It's really a simple concept.
If you have a hundred people, of whom 10 are hetero pedophiles and 2 are homo pedophiles, then the hetero pedophiles outnumber the homos by five to one.
However, the radio of pedophiles in the hetero population is 10.204%, but the ratio of pedophiles in the homo population is 100%.
Oversimplified, of course, but the principle holds.
All other things being equal, any given heterosexual man is far, far less likely to molest a child than is any given homo.
