It's a new class of sexual deviant created for the "sexual abuse/pedophile" crisis. While the numbers indicate that this largely was not true "pedophilia" as most people see it (pre-pubescent children), calling it what it actually was, homosexuality, goes against the prevailing agenda in the fantasy world of pop-psych and the media.

Well, that's my opinion.

No all homosexuals are attracted to adolescents. Thus the term epheobophelia does add aome precision. To be most precise, we should say "homosexual epheobophelia."

I do believe it is important to stress that this is not, mainly, a pedophelia problem, but a homosexual epheobophelia problem. Though pedophelia was in fact a part of it. The most high profile cases, Shanely and Gheghan, were in fact true pedophiles, preying on pre-pubescent children, and preying on both boys and girls.
