Infantophilia or nepiophilia is the sexual attraction to infants and toddlers, defined by various studies as children aged 0–4.Many paedophiles attracted to females may also experience a nepiophilic attraction, unlike the majority of male-attracted paedophiles who are more likely to experience a degree of ephebophilic attraction. However,the concise Oxford english dictionary twelfth edition(2011)contains an entry for neither infantophilia nor nepiophilia,which is odd considering that they are not swear words but technical terms.Still;in the EU at least,when you type the word"pedophile" on a macbook the computer's spell-checking algorithm puts a red line underneath the word even though it is not misspelled.
