Hebephilia Separation
I noticed that 'Hebephilia' redirects to this article, and this article mentions that ephebophilia is "also called hebephilia," however the whole description is very boylove oriented. The only mention of it being used for attraction to adolescent girls is "... but may be applied to all adolescents." However, it then goes on to explain how boylove communities use the term to distinguish between attraction to "teenagers" from attraction to "younger, pre-pubescent boys."
I want to make this more gender balanced, so I would either fix up this article to be less boylove oriented, or dedicate this article to attraction to adolescent boys and 'Hebephilia' to attraciton to adolescent girls. I personally would lean toward the latter since 'ephebos' refers to adolescent boys while 'hebe' refers to the goddess (female) of youth. What do other editors think about this? --Pantheadoros 03:33, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
