It would like an edgy trend of wanting to rape women...without actually, you know raping women. How *dare* you call the rapeophiles rapists? They're just rapeophiles! How insensitive! Don't you know how hard it is to be a rapeophile today?!
See, pedophiles aren't child-lovers. They're child-rape-lovers. There's a big difference, see. They don't love children. They love the idea of raping children.
(Of course I'm being insensitive. They only will do it if the child consents.)
