Women constitute 10% of pederast tourists.
Am I taking crazy pills right now? I'm literally asking for some kind of evidence and no one will provide it. I have tried finding it and everything that comes back is about women who are victims of sex tourism, not perpetrators. I'm not asking for evidence because I don't believe it, I'm asking because I can't find any.

Reading through the second source pretty much backs up my initial statement that women going to Italy to hook up are nearly all looking for adults. The only breakdown of offender gender I could find said 93.3% men, 3ish% women, and the remainder unidentified. It also says Eastern Europe is much more likely to be a destination of choice for predators.
The second source, which admittedly had to be run through Google translate, is about Italians traveling abroad for sex tourism, not people going to Italy. There's no source listed for the claim that 10% of sex tourists are women that I could see. They do reference the org that created the second source, but I didn't see 10% anywhere.
I'm not dismissing sex tourism as a problem or saying women who contribute aren't monsters, but the evidence (and your sources) say men make up the vast majority of traveling predators and are far more likely to be seeking out children when they're going to known hot spots for that kind of thing than women going to western Europe.
