The term pederasty or paederasty embraces a wide range of erotic practices between adult males and adolescent boys.

Rendered as 'age-structured homosexuality', it is, along with gender-structured relations and egalitarian relations, regarded as one of three main subdivisions of homosexuality proposed by anthropologists.

In the history of Europe, its most structured cultural manifestation was Athenian pederasty, reaching its zenith in the 5th century BC. Greek pederasty's various forms were the subject of philosophic debates in which the carnal type was unfavorably compared with erotic yet spiritual and moderate forms.
