The word pedophile comes from Greece and directly relates to this topic. It's rooted in the historical precedence of adult men having sexual relations with their younger male apprentices. This is well documented. Plato even supported this in the younger years of his life but would later change his mind and advocate vehemently against it.

The original root word is "pederasty"
