The word pederasty derives from Greek (paiderastia) "love of children" or "love of boys",[1] a compound derived from παῖς (pais) "child, boy" and ἐραστής (erastēs) "lover".<br /><br />The only difference from what I can glean is that while both are a prurient interest of a sexual nature in minor children, the first is in pre-pubescent and the second is in post-pubescent.<br /><br />I would not run around, if I were you, announcing you were a paedophile.<br /><br />XO<br />WWWWisewebwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15281689872840844191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14874528.post-25660009602450198152010-03-17T23:33:27.358-02:302010-03-17T23:33:27.358-02:30GSW:
