	Paraphilia Identity (discussed later) is thought to help foster alliances with other self-identified paraphiles, sometimes on the basis they are "non-harmful" or not acted upon, indicating [[anti-contact]] beliefs. A minority of "pro-para" personas also describe themselves as "[[pro-recovery]]", implying reorientation, or otherwise recovery from the distress caused by the "disorder" of pedophilia.

This has been proposed as a possible soft "point of entry" for the idea that attraction to minors is endemic in society.
