Pedophilia doesn't describe behaviour but attraction. If a rapist is not exlusively attracted to children then they're by definition not a pedophile. I'm well aware that in everyday language that word is used interchangeably with child molester but those terms are not synonymous.
agree with all of that except the exclusive bit, i'm going to go with the wikipedia definition
which presents a problem for my point, doesn't it. if you are attracted to children, but not primarily, what are you? a semipaedo? if you only ever told one lie, it doesn't make you a liar. that is acceptable, even obvious to me. but you only fucked one kid so you're not a paedophile? i can't get my head round that
