They are mentally ill. No normal men or women should desire to have sex with kids because there is no procreation possible therefore is not useful for nature and awful for moral.

I would hope it’s mental illness, not the end result of a hedonistic life.
No. A normal person doesn't have sexual attraction for a child. I don't have sexual attraction even for 25 years old already.. children... please
I recognize a fairly predictable fraction of every society on earth will have mental disorders (like schizophrenia and sociopathy for example). But perhaps this applies to abnormal / misdirected sexual attraction too? And nobody talks about it or studies it? Or maybe they do but it doesn’t come up in psychiatry so I haven’t ever heard about the scientific literature on the subject?
