Furthermore, he stated in an interview with BT (Berlin Newspaper, translated) in 1995:

<blockquote>
''I have a humanist belief that we should help all the weak. There is nothing wrong with being a pedophile. But pedophiles are weak because society hunts them. It worries me that educators have such strong prejudices that they cannot have the thought experiment that children can get something positive out of having sex with an adult.''<ref>[https://www.mail-archive.com/samfund@malka.dk/msg00011.html Mail archive]</ref>
