I assumed that was obvious, since I was such a boy! ;) I remember from the time I was 12 years old, having very intense crushes on some of my teachers in school. I thought they were like "gods", because of their knowledge and caring attitudes. I can tell you, I fantasized about them, in a sexual way, and those men were all in their 30s, 40s, and 50s! Although, in retrospect, I can say that it probably would have been a huge mistake to act on such feelings. I am not trying to offend boylovers who consider themselves to be heterosexual (in terms of adult relationships). I don't mean to be exclusive, by speaking as a gay person. (Honestly, I still think of myself as a boy, though I am in my 20s. I guess that's just part of the gay scene!) Yet I think that the difference between boylove and being gay is not so great as people sometimes think. What is the more important characteristic, age or gender? I am asking you, because I don't know how you look at this. For me, gender is more important than age. I am attracted to males, of any age, more than females. But that is just ME; I don't mean to impose my views on anyone. I guess if someone wanted to label me as a "teenboylover", I couldn't really argue with it. I do like guys who are about 14 and up. But I also like guys in their 30s and 40s, so go figure. Can't we get away from labels, and just be ourselves? I hope that people in my and future generations will do this. |
