I have a knee jerk reaction to the term because it is a term constantly used by the Christian Conservatives. There is that "man boy love" website and group (NAMBLA) that encourages relationships between men and boys and all the other homosexual groups are always trying to distance themselves from NAMBLA. It has always been my understanding that NAMBLA encourages pedestry where most homosexual groups disavow pederasty. The Christian Conservatives are always trying to lump them together and say that all homosexual are pederasts.
When I think of a pederast I have always assumed they are talking about a ten to twelve year old, not a fifteen to eighteen year old. If you say that any homosexual that is attracted to sixteen year old is a pederast then you seem to be supporting their argument.

Fucking NABLA. The Wiki addresses this:

Currently, in the news media the term tends to be incorrectly used as a synonym for pedophilia, even though the latter designates the sexual attraction of adults to prepubescent boys or girls. This confusion may arise from the fact that a single organization, NAMBLA, is the most prominent public advocate for both groups, making the practical distinction between pederast and pedophile activism difficult to define, whatever their theoretical differences.
