When was it said that if someone was attracted to someone who was below the age of consent they would prey on them? Just because you find someone attractive does not mean you would throw yourself on them.
Canada has some age of consent laws that make sense:

My state and a few other states have implemented similar schemes called Romeo and Juliet laws. I think it is a step in the right direction. Until a few years ago, the AOC was 14 in Canada. I think the US pressured them into raising it.

Possibly had a little to do with it, but a major reason was from a 14 year old boy having sex with a 31 year old. When trying to find the link I gave I saw that. Look up Canada age of consent.

In Spain, though, if the parents find out that an older person is having sex with their daughter and they find out, then it becomes a crime.
It's also a crime in Germany for an older person to have power over a person under the age of 21.
In Europe?
Albania, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Estonia, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Liechtenstein, Macedonia, Montenegro, Portugal and San Marino,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_Europe
Some of them have exemptions whereby if deceit is employed, it is chargeable if the younger person or the parents complain.
Some countries don't have an age of consent if you're married, like Saudi Arabia. So if you have a desire to have sex with a young girl, just marry her.
How much older do they need to be for it to be a crime?
They are some low consent ages. That marriage thing is weird.

Glancing is not the same as trying to have sex with them.
It's perfectly normal for a man to find a 14-year-old or 15-year-old attractive. Sometimes, they manage to get into bars or clubs on their own. (Ever seen the scene in Transpotting?)
If he has sex with her knowing or strongly suspecting that she's under the AOC though, he's breaking the law.
An older man who perves on young girls is creepy regardless of whether they act out or not. Never seen that movie/show/whatever.

An older person preying on young girls is creepy and terrible.
I can't be bothered reading a whole link, so I won't go to it.

If the man is much older, then yes it is creepy.
Ephebophilia is the primary or exclusive adult sexual interest in mid-to-late adolescents, generally ages 15 to 19 (from Wikipedia)
That's what it actually is.
It's normal for an adult male to find some underage teenage girls attractive, but I don't think it's normal to have an exclusive sexual interest in them.

Beat me to it.
Yeah, an adult seeing a 16 year old and thinking "Hey, not bad. Wait, she's how old?" would not make him some kind of horrible perv. But if girls that age were his primary focus, that kinda would.
