Trident, perhaps it might be possible to describe a pedophile as one who may have had a unique childhood experience that he or she may wish to mentally recreate, but is it equally possible to consider this individual completely free from a disorder of any kind if he or she then seeks to make the fantasy a reality? Essentially, is it fair to consider a pedophile who might wish to actually engage in sexual activity to be as mentally or emotionally sound as the individual who might 'pine' for a reenactment of his 8-year old coming of awareness, but soundly reasons that such a thing is beyond fair access?

To clarify, how might it be possible to consider both the pedophile who may wish to physically assault children to be as sound of mind as the one who might merely remember a certain childhood indiscretion with more fondness than it might perhaps deserve?
