Do people actually know the difference between a pedophile and an ephebophile. Words matter.

Probably. But per the law (and per decency), persons under 18 are minors, children.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
No, I didn’t know and had to go look up the definition of ephebophile and while I was at it, I looked up pedophile to see what the difference is. Now that I’ve done that, I’m not sure I’m any wiser other than the definitions relate pedophile to children and ephebophile to post-pubescent adolescents. Since such definitions don’t actually attach an age to them, it seems somewhat arbitrary.
