It seems pretty difficult to separate pedophilia from rape - that is, to separate sexual arousal from liking children from the motivation for power over others that's mixed up with rape, including rape of people who can't consent, whether they say no or not. And when talking about our current society it becomes not just hard but wrong, because they are not separated, and so you draw the wrong conclusions about how our society responds to pedophilia.
