Am I a boylover? Yes. But do I support the boylove beliefs of writers like Plato and Socrates (or even some contemporary writers) and societies throughout the ages that have approved of sexual contact between men and boys? No. Historically and culturally I'd like to see a move toward a society that is not afraid to let their boys be discipled and mentored by men. But I am also understanding that there is a healthy fear that parents have regarding their children's contact with other adults (especially if those adults may have a sexual attraction toward their children (cf. Boy Scouts Org)). Plus, I feel that we live in a world-gone-crazy. How can a parent ever feel totally secure about their child's well-being when the child is not close by their side? I guess this answers the question regarding a boylover's position in contemporary society. In a world such as today, it is less likely that a man can have a meaningful relationship with a boy that is not his own without being brought under suspicion as to why the man wants to have a relationship with a boy (cf. singer Michael Jackson). ~Splash* |
