A child can never consent to sex so it would always be rape.

It is a psychiatric disorder. One could question whether it would also be classed as a preference/fetish but with accompanying psychiatric problems. For example, it can be the result of previous trauma experiences.
Agree RE rape.
Like I originally said I don't excuse the behaviour under ANY circumstances, but I view it as an illness.
