Not a great analogy

To me a paedophile is someone with a sexual attraction to children, ie pre pubescent

I don't think a 15 year old clearly falls into that category (which is why lots of respectable jurisdictions set the age of consent at 15, a few at 14).

Johnson is a criminal and a rat and a thoroughly immoral arsehole. And if it had been my daughter I'd be getting out the horsewhip. But I don't think he's a paedophile.
