Considering that.

Main reason is honesty toward her, second reason is wanting to change the opinion about pedophilia for the next generations.

I think there is no good reason to tell her right now. She is your step-daughter and right now you need to simply focus on loving her, supporting her and helping to guide her through life. As I said to you before, you are very Lucky to have such a wonderful, special girl in your life on a regular basis. I would not do anything to risk that kind of relationship. It's likely it would get back to her mother (at least).

I would wait until she is older, and then you can tell her your feelings. She will then be even more appreciative of all you did for her when she was younger and she will understand that we can love little girls without being sexual with them. I think you will get the maximum benefit from telling her once she is close to "adulthood".

Besides, you are being honest with her because you tell her that you love her. She does not need to know right now just how deep that love really is. There is also the possibility that it might frighten her or make her uncomfortable if she knows you have a sexual interest in girls her age.

Waiting until she is older to tell her is certainly the way to go in this situation. I stand by the assertion that we should all have close, non-sexual friendships with little girls and then when they get older, we can tell them we are Girl Lovers. That is how real change is going to come about. The girls who love us and know what we are will teach the rest of society that we are not the monsters we are made out to be.
