Well if you can't give an intelligent response try name calling. How adult of you
That isn't a false association.
BOTH pedophiles and homosexuals believe they are "born that way". In fact a large amount of pedophiles ARE homosexuals.
both false assertions.
Pedophilia is directly linked to lesions in the white matter in specific brain sections of the amygdala, Lesions that form postnatal. Further studies show that the greater the brain damage the younger the preferred victim of the pedophile.

the number of pedophiles who are homosexual is incredibly small.
Dr. Carole Jenny was the director of the Child Advocacy and Protection Team at Denver's Childrens Hospital, and she also directed medical programs at the C. Henry Kempe National Center for the Prevention and Treatment of Child Abuse and Neglect. Dr. Jenny and her colleagues reviewed 269 medical records of Denver-area children who were sexually abused by adults. Of 50 male children, 37 (74%) were molested by men who had been in a heterosexual relationship with the child’s relative. Three were molested by women, five were molested by both parents, and three others were molested by non-relatives. Only one perpetrator could be identified as being possibly homosexual in his adult behavior Jenny, Carole; Roesler, Thomas A.; Poyer, Kimberly L. “Are children at risk for sexual abuse by homosexuals?” Pediatrics
This means that the percentage of homosexual child molesters is 0.4%
In 1998, he and Dr. Jean Birnbaum published a study of 175 convicted male child molesters in which they found:
The child offender is a relatively young adult either who has been sexually attracted to underage persons almost exclusively in his life or who turns to a child as a result of stresses in his adult sexual or marital relationships. Those offenders who are sexually attracted exclusively to children show a slight preference for boys over girls, yet these same individuals are uninterested in adult homosexual relationships. In fact, they frequently express a strong sexual aversion to adult males. Groth, A. Nicholas; Birnbaum, H Jean. “Adult sexual orientation and attraction to underage persons.” Archives of Sexual Behavior
In over 12 years of clinical experience working with child molesters, we have yet to see any example of an adult homosexual orientation. Groth, A. Nicholas; Hobson, William F.; Gary, Thomas S. “The child molester: clinical observations.” In Social Work and Child Sexual Abuse.
These people worked for years with child molesters and they couldn’t identify one adult gay man who was a molester
Dr. Kurt Freund and his associates at the Clarke Institute of Psychiatry skipped asking the molesters what their sexual orientation was and directly studied the sexual response of child molesters to viewing pictures of nude men, women and children.
“These studies show that only rarely are sex offenders against male children diagnosed as androphiles [homosexual in adult orientation] and that phallometric diagnosis of gynophilic [heterosexual in adult orientation] and androphilic volunteers almost always corresponds to their claimed erotic preference.” Freund, Kurt; Watson, Robin J.; Rienzo, Douglas. “Heterosexuality, homosexuality, and the erotic age preference.” Journal of Sex Research
A 1998 article in the Journal of the American Medical Association notes one study that found: “98 percent of pedophiles are heterosexual men.” Holmes, W.C. and Slap, G.B. (1998). Sexual abuse of boys: Definition, prevalence, correlates, sequelae and management. Journal of the American Medical Association
There is a VERY REAL link between the two. So.... please stop claiming there is a false link between the two.
There is no link.
In an identical fashion racists love to claim that blacks commit the majority of rapes.
Both false claims have the same purpose - to dehumanize a minority
