1) "Loli" and "Shota" is, for the japanese, just a fancier, more gender-precise way of saying Kid, compared to "Kodomo". And anime fandoms borrow things from the japanese lexicon.

2) Lolicon and Shotacon basically mean "Pedophile". They don't mean "Little girls/boys", they mean "(someone) likes little girls/boys". The difference is like calling someone "a kid", and calling someone "a person who likes kids".
