There is a strange fascination/repulsion in Western culture for paedophilia. Most of the 3rd world does not share this traumatic focus. Criminals in Western prisons that murder and sexually assault women are horrified by men who molest children.

It is impossible to have an academic discussion or to fund research on the comparative psychological and physical damage done by paedophiles on their victims and the appropriate treatment and effectiveness of incarceration.

Murder and rape, for some reason, fail to incite the same level of fear and hatred in society as child molestation does.

I wonder why.

Now, for the irate respondents to this post: I recognize how horrible you think child molestation is. I do agree. But why does it incite more anger in you than random murders of children without a sexual component?
