Pedophiles appear to have narcissistic and antisocial (psychopathic) traits. He makes his victims treat him the way in which he views himself - or attributes to them traits and behaviors which are really his. In excessive (mercifully uncommon) cases, the pedophile initiatives these torturous feelings and self-perceptions onto his victims. The pedophile is the guru at the middle of a cult. It is likely - although hitherto unsubstantiated by analysis - that the everyday pedophile is depressive and with a borderline persona (low organization and fuzzy personal boundaries). The child may have low self-esteem, a fluctuating sense of self-value, primitive defence mechanisms, phobias, psychological health issues, a incapacity, a historical past of failure, bad relations with parents, siblings, teachers, or friends, or a tendency to blame herself, or to feel inadequate (autoplastic neurosis). However it appears to me no disrespect to womanhood to say that I'm perfectly glad to be a man, to really feel issues no lady will ever really feel to the diploma that I feel them, to experience the world in a method no lady ever has.
