You asked, "why do you think a boy (or at least a non-gay boy) would ever want a man as a lover?"

The answer is that they would not.

Have you heard of anteros? It's best described by Plato I think, but reading Wikipedia on it would be better than nothing. I put it to you that there is no point in even trying to understand Greek (or most historical) pederasty without coming to grips with it first.

I'm sorry if I sounded angry. That was wrong of me.
