It may be HIGHLY inappropriate, but a 14 yr old is not exactly 'child molestation' territory.
You have been confused by vocabulary limitations. Many people use the word "pedophile" to mean a person interested in children under 16 years old. As cited elsewhere in the recent posts, there are three words used depending on the ages involved. In any State of the Union, sexual contact with a 14 year old is sexual assault but not pedophilia. The difference is about "20 years to life".
"Words have meanings"
Well well well...

A new Alabama Senate poll, released Sunday morning, gives Democrat Doug Jones his first lead over Republican Roy Moore.
The race, though, remains close.
Louisiana-based JMC Analytics conducted the poll after allegations of sexual misconduct by Moore were reported by The Washington Post.
The poll had Jones received 46 percent support in the poll to Moore's 42 percent. With a margin of error of 4 percent, however, the race is essentially a statistical tie.
The first survey, which was conducted entirely before noon local time on Thursday, shows Moore leading Jones by 50 percent to 39.2 percent with 10.8 percent undecided. That survey of 1,354 likely voters in the upcoming Dec. 12 special election has a margin of error of 3.5 percent.
The second survey, conducted Saturday evening—two days after the Post piece hit, roiling Alabama’s political scene—shows Moore and Jones with about the exact same percentages as before. Moore’s position in this second poll is 49.8 percent—meaning he only dropped 0.2 percent since the story hit—and Jones has only picked up 0.4 percent to reach 39.6 percent total. The second survey, which polled 1,536 likely voters with a margin of error of 3.3 percent, has 10.5 percent as undecided.
Other polls show Moore up by a couple, a tie, and The JmC poll that you quote with Jones up by 4
Given that girls tends to be more mature than boys, the age difference may not be as big as you're suggesting. It's probably closer to 18 vs 25, which no one would think is odd
Just to be clear, are you claiming it is ok for a 32 year old to undress and kiss a 14 year old?

I could too, Goodnight. Girls that age talk to each other, and it's highly likely her best friends were told if this is true.
I had a friend as a freshman in high school who babysat for a couple and when the man took her home he felt her boobs under her shirt. She was so mortified she pretended to be asleep.
I could recount that story very accurately, and even tell you the man's name and approximate month when it happened.
