25-32.5% depending upon whether you prefer Wolfgang Berner's conservative estimate or the Kent State study.

The problem lies in asking just WHO are you studying and WHAT are you studying?

The NCA draws erroneous conclusions about the general population from Klaus Michael Beier's study of SOs. ( Enter James Cantor to defend using the SO database while misleading the public into thinking he's studied THEIR neighbors rather than inmate 176-617. )

Now fortunately for the NCA, their conclusion accidentally arrives at the same number as some studies of non-forensic population. Such as J. Briere, M. Runtz 1989 ( http://www.web.uvic.ca/psyc/runtz/CANpaper1989.pdf )
But even that study is beset by some problems ( like accepting Finkelhor's requirement that one of the defining features of Pedophilia must be a blockage in relating to adult women, and basing their study on ones used to examine predilections towards sexual violence against women. )

The most fundamental flaw in these 1% conclusions among the non-incarcerated is that they're based on self-assessment. If Pedophilia is an orientation, then we should eliminate those with Pedophile-OCD who FEAR that they are Peds, but who are sexually indifferent to children. We also should include those who don't self-assess that they are aroused by kids, but who are aroused anyway.

That's where Berner and Kent State come in handy.

So what can we conclude? 1% of the population will betray an attraction to children either through actions or self-assessment. "Hey, are you a Pedo?" "Yes, yes I am." And another 24 -31.5 will be turned on by nekkid prepubescent kids. ( But will badmouth Pedos anyway. )

This seems on par with the findings that Heteros are unaroused by gay-pronz unless they're vocal homophobes; and then they like it moar than gays do.

The question which will probably go unanswered is just whether the "secondary" nature of this unconfessed orientation makes it more of an influence, less of an influence, or is on par with the self-declared orientation.

Given that secrecy and deception have a way of magnifying things, I'd say that secondary Pedophilia would probably be no big deal if Anti attitudes didn't magnify the need for self-delusion.

I'm OK with the approx 4% of me that has homosexual attraction. Its so infrequent that I usually forget. But since I don't HAVE to forget, avoidance patterns don't allow it to define me.

The numbers are 1/3-1/4 of the overall population. If we're measuring those who admit to it, 1%. If we use those who refer to themselves with a term like Pedophile or Pedosexual, we are waaaaaay below that 1% number.

However, if we allow society to conflate Pedophilia and Ephebophilia ( as the media AND AoC laws do ) then we can come up to 100%. Show them the adult body of a 17year old and you will find the entire teleio-hetero population aroused. Thank you Antis, for building our army for us :)
