The challenge for pedophiles is abstaining from their urges. Many use child pornography as their release... better to watch it and get off than do it and get off... the theory goes.
I guess the part of that I take issue with is this:
1. If two gay men or two gay women have sex, no-one gets hurt. If a person molests or rapes a child, they are hurting that child. Hurting someone isn't a sexual orientation.
2. You can't make child pornography without hurting a child. Using child pornography might feel more sanitized in some weirdly morally relative world, but really it's not. By using child pornography, a pedophile participates in an industry that hurts children.
