It depends on if they act on that attraction or not. It is evil to grab a child and rape them, no matter what you feel about them.
Yes it is. Its evil to grab and rape anyone. Having read the article again, I have to say this book does seem a bit, erm, different, but freedom of speech you know? I'm not condoning what paedophiles do, but I'm just saying, can you imagine being attracted to men, or women, but never being able to touch one? However, I do agree that sexual intercourse with a child is wrong

In my book the phrase is "consenting adult" What goes on between consenting adults (of either gender) is nobody's business but theirs in my opinion. But children - even if they say yes - are not really capable of understanding all the issues yet - that's why they are children and should be protected.

this detracts from the point. the writer is free to write this book if they wish and, if people are willing to buy it, why shouldn't it be sold?

i don't know how an adult can find a child "attractive", cute maybe but not attractive. Not in a sexual way anyway.
