"Hi, I like children but I'm not a paedophile."
When your friend sees a child who is stumbling on his stout little legs and he/she goes, "Look at that baby! He's cute!"
When your friend sees a child who is stumbling on his stout little legs and he/she goes, "Look at that baby! He's cute!"
Do you go
"Paedophile."
and turn away?
If yes,
the term "Paedophile" is loosely defined by you as anyone who likes pre-pubescent children.

Heh heh if you like Justin Bieber, you're a paedophile. There are more than 7 million paedophiles in the world.
Oh, might as well, a murderer is defined as anyone who holds a knife.
Thief is defined as anyone who borrows your possessions.
It is so irksome whenever someone calls me a paedophile.
A paedophile is "an adult who is sexually attracted to children" (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/paedophile)
This guy is a paedophile. I am not.
I have absolutely no sexual designs on children. Never ever do I have a flicker of sexual interest in them.
(1) Their innocence is just something that I find extremely adorable. If you compare a hormone-ranging teenager who says "I love you" with a motive VERSUS a little boy/girl who writes down "I love you teacher" because he/she likes you teaching him/her, which one would you find more adorable?
OF COURSE THE CHILD! (If you chose the teenager, please bang your head on the nearest wall.)
(2) Compare a child who hands you a gift (handmade somemore) shyly and then quickly scuttles away VESUS a man/woman who gives you a gift but he/she is actually interested in you and wants something more from you. Which one is more adorable?
You might say: How can you compare these two? One is a child, the other might be your potential partner blah blah blah. By bringing them both together it shows that you have a deeper interest in children yak yak yak.
NO. I am just trying to show that children are very adorable. It's okay to gush about how cute you think they are like how you gush about a cute guy/girl in your course but minus the sexual innuendo.
SO, you're not a paedophile if you think children are cute. Ignore that foul-mouth friend of yours who simply throws that term around!!!
Watch her reaction the second time she eats the lemon.
*shakes head* I don't get it, since when has the term "paedophile" been on the tip of the tongue of so many people. Is it because of the dastardly deeds of the Catholic priests? Is it because of the media, choosing to report the countless cases of paedophiles (reporting white collar crime is no longer in fashion)?
Whatever it is, call me a paedophile, I am going to continue liking children (and planning on having a few when I get married).
hahaha i love that video! someday if I have a child, I'm definitely gonna give them lemons! hehehe
