- COGlory 7y agoYes but no one is attracted to anyone when they're born. That happens later, and how and why exactly some people are attracted to some sexes, or traits, or fetishes is still up in the air. It's likely some combination of genetic and developmental, and what the exact contributions are to pedophilia are unknown.
- pmarreck 7y agoIdentical twins raised separately have a >75% concordance in orientation, as opposed to no concordance as would be expected if there was no genetic input. So there is definitely a genetic input, and it is definitely large, although it's not the whole story.
