Then can you please explain to me the biology behind necrophilia, pedophilia, or bestiality? Are these not legitimate sexual preferences for the individuals involved? 
Nope. More like mental disorders. But we will find a mechanistic explanation to them eventually, but perhaps you think it is a result of demonic possessions? 
You'd argue that pedophilia is a mental disorder if it ties directly in one's perception of what constitutes as beauty? And if I were a proponent of literal demonology, Moridin, I'd already have sent in papers for your exorcism. 
pedophilia does not ties directly in one's perception of what constitutes as beauty. All forms of sexual assault is based on an urge for power, not beauty. 
Unfortunately, that argument carries the presumption that in order for one to demonstrate pedophilia, they must do so in search for fulfillment through means of assault or power. Forgive me for overusing the phrase, but you haven't shown how pedophilia is a psychological disorder if it ties directly in with one's desire, which could be seen as a healthy admiration from the person demonstrating such urges. If they forces themselves on an unwilling participant, it'd be considered sexual assault; however, the term is not applicable if the individuals involved are willing participants. It is only legally coined as assault namely due to a violation of laws regarding sexual activities and ages accountable of recognition.

Are you refusing to acknowledge the research implicating a growing trend of younger students initiating and becoming sexually active with their older teachers regardless of gender? Are they not considered willing participants due to their position, or is it all a sense of power for the teachers to willfully lose both their position of influence and become imprisoned with a record thereafter?

Is that a scientific fact?

What does that have to do with being willing participants? Adults are often unable to anticipate the outcome of their behavior as well. What is the science behind your statement?

If you do not have the cognitive capacity to anticipate likely outcomes of their behavior, then you cannot participate willingly. Adults to have the relevant cognitive capacity, they don't just always use them.

What is the scientific fact that says that a child cannot willingly participate (or refuse to participate) in any behavior simply because of a lack of cognitive capacity to recognize the outcome? At what point does science say that someone can be willing? Is there a measurement for willingness?
