That's not a very sensible assertion. The image of sexuality is associated with whatever is fit / healthy / young and able to produce the best genes. The whole purpose of having a sex drive is merely to reproduce, so of course our minds will target whatever they see most fit for this purpose. So, I think people have a natural tendency to be attracted to young persons who are in the prime of their sexual development. (i.e., teenagers) The other group of people -- those who are attracted to specific groups, certain fetishism, etc. -- are just acting on psychological desires.
That's my theory.
