Actually...

So was the rest of the world, with men in their late 20s/early 30s marrying 14-16 year old girls.

You mean ephebophiles, right? The world didn't always used to have such an overly judgemental and broad definition for pedophilia. You can't always apply present-world definitions of words to back then. People will even go so far as to say being attracted to SEVENTEEN-year olds makes you a pedo nowadays. That's downright ridiculous, not to mention completely skewing what pedophilia actually is. While having sexual relations with minors is still arguably quite wrong (besides ILLEGAL), it's not pedophilic behavior.

Any straight male in his 20s or 30s (or ANY age) not attracted to teenage girls in some form is probably homosexual. Just saying. Learn the difference.
