even though she prefers polite middle aged men not mean boys.

Unfortunately, many people who were sexually abused as children have the risk of ending up doing the same to others. It's called 'identification with the oppressor/ abuser/or aggressor. So her doing the same to someone else might not be out of the question. But I almost think that if Esther were to have done such a thing, the target she would take advantage of would be Max.

Um, no; Esther was abused by a man, so if she had been a total monster like her worthless father, she prolly would have hurt Daniel. But she wasn't, so she didn't, and the number of abused people who further become pedos is lower than people used to think.

I don't think the gender the person targets correlates with the gender of their abuser, and if it does I don;t think it happens 100% of the time. I didn't say it was common. It's a possible effect that places like foster care systems have to keep in mind. I think nowadays it's been shown that most pedophiles were not molested as children, so that excuse won't always fly anymore.

oh please.. she was a 'grown up' despite her appearance interestingly she made her thoughts on Daniel very clear in a scene in the film.. she had no interest in him physically or otherwise, he was a little douche anyway.
