I think Smegma is missing the concept here.
What you get off to in porn is rarely what you seek in person.
Loli is much different from real children. Anime usually depicts loli as more mature in personalities. Look at Ren from KnJ. She probably knows more about seducing then some grown women I know. Not to mention their appearance.

Loli is very much Moe. Not all guys want sexy. Some guys find cuteness to be their turn on point.
It's more of a psychological thing then actual physical thing.
It's the nature where you have purity that can also be a turn on. That does not mean they seek out real children. Using Ren as an example again, despite her mischief, she's quite pure in the essence that she really doesn't know what she's getting herself into, or trying to get herself into at least. No real child, ever, can compare to what anime dipicts as loli.
I find loli adorable, but I see children as adorable as well, but in a different light. To me I can't compare apples and oranges and call it the same.
If it's not your thing, then it's not your thing. Some men prefer busty long legged women. Some guys prefer bookworms with glasses.
It's your taste and you shouldn't impose your views on others, just as you wouldn't want theirs onto yours.
There is no scientific evidence that has ever shown loli to be a gateway to child pornography.
You don't have anything to back yourself up other then your mouth. Which, from the way you argue and speak to people - is not very credible.
