My understanding of the terms "pedophile" and "child molester" is slightly different from yours. "Pedophilia" is a term defined in the DSM-IV as an attraction (which does not have to be acted on) to a pre-pubescent child for at least 6 months. There is also "ephebeophilia," where the person is attracted to a pubescent child under the AOC.
Child molesters don't have to rape (or be sexually attracted to kids) to molest them. Situational CM's molest kids for reasons other than attraction to them. Preferentional CM's are pedo- (or ephebo-) philes who act on their attraction.
