Me (17f) feeling attraction to 14yo boys?

I’m home schooled so I’m not around other kids much. This kind of makes telling the age of kids/teens very hard.

I just turned 17 a month ago. At 16 I found a 14yo actor attractive. And at 17, I think I still find him attractive and some other 14yo boys as well.

Idk bc I searched up 14yo boys, and some I found attractive and others I did not. But lots of them do not look 14 to me? But they all seem to be. Is this bad? Pedophilic? Am I a pedo for finding 14yo boys attractive when I’m 17 myself? Especially as a female?

It is ok to be aesthetically attracted to anyone, but do not act on any sexual impulses until they are of legal age. I would NOT beat yourself up about being attracted, that is natural and is not too lafrge an age gap, but dont act upon that, just admire them physically from a distance.
