Sometimes it's amazing the way people can ignore the obvious. From the time I was 14 until I turned 18, it never occurred to me I was a boy-lover. Four whole years! When I think back on it, I see so many things that escaped my attention. [...]
The real turning point came when I was stumbling through the sex section of my hometown college library. One book caught my attention. It was titled Sexual Experiences Between Men and Boys by Parker Rossman. I expected it would be about devious, evil men who seduce children. But instead of presenting the stereotyped child-molester, Rossman discussed pederasty in a positive light. It never occurred to me that many boys look for experiences with men. [...]
Our society doesn't encourage openness and honesty about such feelings. On the contrary, it makes pederasts feel like innately criminal perverts, and instills a fear that prevents us from talking to boys and expressing our inner feelings. When will society be open enough to admit boy-love exists and discuss it in a sane, unprejudiced, and rational way? This may not necessarily lead to a full public acceptance of boy-love. But without open communication, nothing will ever be accomplished.
