See, the distinction between a pedophile, hebephile and ephebophile exists for a good reason.
But the thing is, the moment you start getting into those differences, it immediately makes you sound like a pedophile.

One of the many reasons it's impossible to have an honest and mature discussion on the topic. No one cares to actually be accurate with terminology just because it's "icky"
Now if only we could also get research funding on the topic that doesn't have a billion strings attached to the researchers or the results being locked away forever because no one wants their name attached.
Or the best one peer review being basically impossible on the topic.
It's such a huge problem.
What I find very funny about this very unoriginal "online is so different than real life" line of thought, is that the comment you are responding to is one of the most popular jokes from stand up comedian Gianmarco Soresi.
People can, there just aren't any of substance to be made on this topic. Raping kids is bad.
This is such a wild strawman to fight against, completely unrelated to the topic at hand its very interesting this is what you've chosen to bring up.
No one is putting all of those under one term. You've added woman and even teenager (purposefully vague) to that list because it makes your pedophile, hebephile and ephebophile appear stronger than it actually is, which is very weak.
To make all of this noise about lacking nuance just to suggesting using a more local synonym for pedophile is a pretty ridiculous hill to die on.
Its crazy you think I must be American to think child rape is bad. That's such a peculiar line of thought.
This whole comment is a trip, all based on you making things up to be mad at because you know what you actually want to argue against isn't acceptable to argue against.^___^
Well obviously the only people who care about protecting children are The Chosen People of God, the Republican party. Everyone else who isn't a Republican is a child molestater just waiting for a vulnerable child. We should give Republicans, who are the only good people ever, access to any child they want any time so they can protect the Children from the disgusting dangerously deranged Democrats. /S
