When sexual characteristics develop the pedophile no longer has an interest, by definition. There's another word for it, so one should use that word instead. It's like calling steam or ice "water". They're different states of "water", but they're not water, they're steam and ice.
Fuck. I noticed women do this shit the most too. Men do it, but are usually able to be corrected and then understand. Women just stare then scoff and call you an asshole when you point out they're using words wrong and their statement doesn't make sense because the word is being used incorrectly.
Holy fuck does it piss me off. This has been my TED talk.
