>>42039691correct. all child molesters are pedophiles, but not all pedophiles are child molesters. that doesn't nullify what a pedophile is, though.
they're still people attracted to child-like appearance and physique. while child molestation is limited to real people, pedophilia isn't, and it's mostly relevant in drawings because most artists and animators can't be bothered to make the visual differences. you can always say the "individuals" in the drawing is "18+ years old", but their appearance still doesn't match that, so it doesn't justify it (e.g. "I swear she's legal, she's 700 years old!").
