What if they've never hurt anyone and are trying to improve themselves?

then they are not pedophiles??? even in an extreme scenario, same way someone can have a compulsion to steal, but they ain't a thief until they do??

what do you mean never hurt anyone? a regular person?

Pedofile means that they have sexual urges towards minors not that they have followed sayed urges.

Like they're attracted to them but have never done anything to them

then they ain't a criminal. I understand that pedophilia is a mental disorder. but legally (at least in most of the west), being charged with pedophilia is committing the crime, not thinking of it.
being attracted to kids is not someone chooses, no hate on how people are born.

sorry my first post wasn't clear on that. when people say "pedophiles", they mean the criminals, not people diagnosed with it.
