No, they had no predilection for pedophilia.

There are many clues that adverse reaction to testosterone is the cause of pedophilia... there are zero clues that prove it is not testosterone.

There is a short period of time after male orgasm when the areas of the brain responsible for libido shut down... these are the areas stimulated by testosterone. Every male knows this effect well, every female does too..lol It is common knowledge that pedophiles lose all desire for sex with children during this short time. Psychiatrists admonish patients with pedophilia to masturbate to orgasm to avoid an incident... shutting down libido will give the patient a chance to avoid catastrophe.

The libido shutdown mechanism is common to mammals and is a safety valve to prevent damage from prolonged mating activity.

You’re still talking about physical effects. They are still pedophiles because they still view children as objects for sexual gratification. Just because they don’t have an erection at the moment, and aren’t horny at the moment, doesn’t mean they aren’t pedophiles.

Pedophilia is not a birth defect, or an acquired physical disability. It is a choice. No one is physically predisposed to have sex with children.

Testosterone affects people physically. It doesn’t plant thoughts in people’s brains.
