This is not an opinion, it is a fact. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Psychiatric Association lists pedophilia as both a sexual orientation and disorder.

"The essential feature of this disorder is recurrent, intense, sexual urges and sexually arousing fantasies, of at least six months' duration, involving sexual activity with a prepubescent child."

"The age of the person is arbitrarily set at age 16 years or older and at least 5 years older than the child."
