I suspect there is a pedophile hiding in every queer, to Hell with what the "experts" say!
They want access to kids in the important formative years, when they are most vulnerable to confused emotions.
It appears that the "real experts" agree with you Swampsniper:
Kevin Bishop, an admitted pederast (pedophile), is promoting the work of the North American Man - Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) in South Africa. Bishop, who was molested at the age of six, is also an admitted homosexual who is blunt about the relationship between homosexuality and pedophilia. Scratch the average homosexual and you will find a pedophile, said Bishop in an interview with the Electronic Mail & Guardian ( June 30, 1997).
