The most salient dimension of men's sexual orientation is gender: attraction to males versus females. A second dimension is sexual maturity: attraction to children versus adults. A less appreciated dimension is location: attraction to other individuals versus the sexual fantasy of being one of those individuals. Men sexually aroused by the idea or fantasy of being the kinds of individuals to whom they are sexually attracted have an erotic-target identity inversion (ETII). We conducted an online survey to investigate the prevalence and phenomenology of ETIIs among 475 men sexually attracted to children. Autopedophilia, or sexual arousal by the idea of being a child, was common. Furthermore, autopedophilic men tended to be sexually aroused by imagining themselves as the kinds of children (with respect to gender and age) to whom they are sexually attracted. Results support the concept of ETIIs and exemplify the simultaneous importance of three dimensions of male sexual orientation.
对男性与女性的吸引力。第二个维度是性成熟度：对儿童与成人的吸引力。一个不太被重视的维度是位置：对其他个体的吸引力与对成为这些个体的性幻想的吸引力。被自己性吸引的个体的想法或幻想所唤起性兴奋的男性具有性目标身份反转（ETII）。我们进行了一项在线调查，以调查 475 名对儿童有性吸引力的男性中 ETII 的流行程度和表现。自恋童癖，即对成为儿童的想法产生性兴奋，是很常见的。此外，自恋童癖的男性往往会通过想象自己成为他们性吸引的那种儿童（在性别和年龄方面）来获得性兴奋。研究结果支持 ETII 的概念，并举例说明了男性性取向三个维度的同时重要性。
