I understand not every predatory sexual behavior towards young people is pedophilic, because young people vary in age and maturity.
However, this is such a strange and uncalled "technically correct" reply, why would we care enough to differentiate between hebephile or whatever it is called and pedophile. Nobody cares, it's still predatory and gross behavior no matter the name.
I was trying to focus on how that generation had a fascination with teens while simultaneously yelling "think of the children". Definitely not a defense of their actions.
There's always at least one...
I think it matters in terms of psychological health. Internally thinking that an older teenager is attractive is a pretty normal thing that might happen to an allosexual human, whereas the same attraction for a younger teen or child is clear "get in therapy now before something bad happens" territory.
Please note that I have specified internal thoughts and not making gross conversation about how hot young people are and/or approaching them with sexual intentions.
But I agree that this is really not the context to bring up the difference.
