| According to reports and his own writings, Lanza was interested in that topic. He wrote "Lovebound", a document detailing the relationship between a 30-year-old man and a 10-year-old boy and advocated pedophiles' rights in "pbear". There was a video of children being shot and the movie "Voor Een Verloren Soldatt" on his computer and another writing about pedophilia, "457.full". (Some of these files haven't been released.) Yet he denied being a pedophile.
The question is: Why did he have these files? I mean, he possessed so much stuff about that. It seems suspicious and disconcerting. What do you think? | |

| According to himself, he is either confused about sexuality, or generally not interested in the subject at all, from any other standpoint than writing his thoughts about it.
"I know that I will be accused of desiring sexual contact with children, and there might possibly be accusations that I have already had it, but neither case is true. I also have not seen any degree of child pornography (nor intentionally seen any adult pornography). All of the sexuality which is rampant in this society in general is as disgusting to me as pedophilia is, but that isn’t sufficient reason for me to desire the violent persecution of anyone over it because of personal perspective. I’m pretty confused when it comes to my sexuality, but I’m certain that I’m not a pedophile."
Of course like anyone else, he could be lying. But this is what we have to go from. | |

| I guess we’ll never truly know. He apparently denied being a pedophile but if he wasn’t, why did he have those files on his computer? I personally believe he was a pedophile in denial but I’m not sure. _________________ "Now! Feel death, not just mocking you. Not just stalking you but inside of you. Wriggle and writhe.

| Perhaps he was. He certainly held some level of fascination with child on adult relationships, though I don't think he was ever interested in having a romantic relationship with a child, much less a sexual one.
If anything, I think it was him who wished he was a child in a relationship with an adult partner, though I really have no concrete evidence to support that hypothesis. I only came to that conclusion through various observations of his personality, particularly his evident fear of growing up, which TheDragonoid already brought up.
I don't think, however, that his essay on "Why Age Of Consent Laws Shouldn't Exists" is at all a smoking gun proving he was a pedo, as it is often framed as such. I can't understand how someone could read an article so well articulated and nuanced, and the only thing they extrapolate from it is "Oh he was certainly a child molester!".
Not to say I agree with his assertion that consent laws shouldn't exist, it just seems to me that in most conversation, regarding pedophiles with anything other than contempt and disgust is somehow considered excusing of child molestation. The issue of pedophilia should be tackled with compassion, not with blind hatred as is always the case in society. The vilification of something as uncontrollable as a persons innate sexuality is why pedophiles never choose seek help. They're left to their own devices, unable to seek any professional help without their whereabouts potentially being divulged by the government to their community at large, preventing them from ever getting employment, and ruining their public reputation beyond repair. Their feelings are left to fester inside them, until they have no feasible options available to them, other than to substitute their urge by consuming child porn, (thus propagating its distribution through sales, and continuing an industry of abuse) or committing suicide. Or in the worst case scenario, actually molesting a child.
Anyhow, this point was brought up and expressed much more articulately in Adams essay. It alone does not prove in the slightest that he was a pedophile.
As for "Lovebound" "Voor Een Verloren Soldatt" and what he had listed under his "desires". Well...that definitely complicates things. It is still a mystery either way. |

| He might have been, but it seems to he was more an edgelord, a moral anti realist type. He was interested in pedophilia because it is deemed evil and he saw nothing wrong with it. He'd be just as interested in denying the trinity or whatever 500 years ago. | |

| We'll never know. While I don't share his degree of interest, I can see why it's pretty interesting. After all, it goes against how reproduction actually works. A kid can't get pregnant and a kid can't impregnate you, so there's zero reason for attraction. | |

It depends on how old they are but technically, they can get pregnant. I’m pretty sure they could impregnate you only if they’re old enough though (hitting puberty). | |

| I think he might've been or at least had pedophilic thoughts. I don't think he'd be the type to actually follow through with his desires (pedophilia) though. Since he was pretty timid other than the shooting (which I think one of the only reasons he did it was because he could kill himself at the end and not suffer any repercussions). Of course this is just speculation |
