Psisci, I don't see this as an issue of political correctness. And I think that what is ruffling some feathers here is that people are confusing explanations for excuses. Or the search for an explanation as a search for an excuse. Those aren't the same thing in my mind.
Some get into this field not out of an interest in helping others, but more so to understand the human condition. That even extends to pedophilia.
On another note, psisci, you work with kids right? What happens when you sexually abuse a kid? Boy or girl. And then if you let it go untreated what happens? I know you know what it results in. You often times see it even before they reach puberty. They often abuse another kid themselves. Trying to undestand this downward spiral I don't think means you have pedophilic thoughts yourself. It seems to me to be a noble pursuit.
Just some food for thought.
