Girl Lover as defined on this board and in our overall movement:

An adult or adolescent who has an attraction to and interest in 'underage' girls (either children, adolescents, or both) which is sexual, emotional, social, and (oftentimes) spiritual in equal measure to each other. It's not a simple sexual desire only. Genuine GLers respect the desires and wishes of girls, as well as their self-determined boundaries. They believe that girls are intelligent and, with the proper education and support, capable of making good decisions for themselves. GLers have a strong interest in girls' subculture, personality characteristics, interests, and hobbies. They have a strong interest in every aspect of a girl's world. They do find girls in their respective AoA to be physically attractive, to have great sex appeal, and consider them beautiful beyond all other things on Earth, but this is only one facet of their interest in girls. Most importantly, perhaps, a GLer is fully capable of falling in love with a girl in their respective AoA. Further, and also very importantly, GLers like girls on a strictly personal level, and enjoy befriending them, hanging out with them, engaging in public activities with them, and take joy just in seeing them be themselves and have fun.

Nothing vague or generic about what it means to be a GLer around here.
