These are all studies about trying to figure out what is going on. Brain responds to children rather than adults. Instead of nurturing instincts for child, sexual arousal occurs. Its more about the fear and humiliation of getting overpowered. This is where people engage in a behavior where their neck is being choked. Often initiated by the masochistic (is this the right word) Because again it is not about pedophiles (not taking over) > in this, the masochistic wants the humiliation and aggression that arouses them. Where someone is going to masturbate until they cannot anymore. Less able to become excited, and sometimes treatment or prison.
