Yup. If we recognize that homophilia and homosexuality isn’t a choice then we also have to recognize that pedophilia isn’t a choice. Doing something towards people that cannot consent (like children) is already illegal, and no further laws are needed.
Conversely, if we treat pedophilia as a mental disorder that’s basically ammunition for people to claim homophilia is a mental disorder. That is something one has to think about before making such claims.
Now, it shouldn’t be difficult to not harm others with your romantic or sexual attraction. It really should not be difficult not to sexually assault someone or coerce someone. That’s just part of being a halfway decent person.
