Thanks for posting that website! What an eye-opener!
From the website's article, with a couple of excerpts:
"Should These Conditions Be Normalized?"
American Psychiatric Association Symposium Debates Whether Pedophilia, Gender-Identity Disorder, Sexual Sadism Should Remain Mental Illnesses
Without such evidence for observable distress and disability, a condition is generally not considered to be a mental disorder. Translated: If you dont feel guilty about having sex with a 6-year old, then youre not mentally ill.
Besides, Moser and Kleinplatz add, psychiatry has no baseline, theoretical model of what, in fact, constitutes normal and healthy sexuality to which it could compare people whose sexual interests draw them to children or sadism/masochism. Translated: All that stuff your grandparents believed was normal between grown men and women was just a bunch of garbage. You know how confused old people get.

Sexual perversion is healthy and normal, but conservative values are pathological.
