Pedophiles are attracted to children before they hit puberty. If you try to fuck fourteen year olds you are a weird fucking creep (and probably a republican). But you are not a pedophile. You're watering down the word.
Edit: Why the hate?!
"Well, ACKCHYUALLY they're ephebophiles."
They're children. Shut the fuck up.
"...I think the reason we don't make those distinctions is because it's very hard to explain the difference without sounding like a pedophile."
Haha, great find! I'll use this next time, save me some heat.
I hope you choke to death on a child's toy, you fucking creep.
