Oh, I’m not sure I’d describe LA’s position quite the way you have, he's not really pro-c. What he has instead is is a prewritten conclusion in search of a justification. He and his ilk are deeply committed to a single, immovable premise: Boylove must, absolutely must, be some divine embodiment of “the Good.” Full stop. And once you’ve declared your conclusion sacred, the rest is just arts and crafts. So he works backwards, desperately trying to define what that “good” is supposed to be this week. And—shock of shocks—he lands on the most predictable, well-worn answer imaginable: it’s all about education. We were apparently placed on Earth by God to run an eternal daycare center and scouting camp for boys. It doesn’t matter that so many of our kind are totally unsuited for the task, it only matters that it sounds good and makes us into heroic figures. The Royal Banners Forward Go! Just ignore all the scandals and real hurt that our kind have caused over the millennia, pretend that they’re a rare anomaly and a rounding error. Hint: they’re not. Instead focus only on the good a few known people have done and start believing that we are all the same as them. We're all basically geniuses and boy whisperers like Robert Baden-Powell, if only laws and social norms would get out of our way so that we could live into it! From there, everything gets shoved through that same theological pasta maker. No alternative viewpoints allowed (wouldn’t want heresy creeping in). Even sexual desire has to be retrofitted. We can’t have sexual motivates and desires to suck a boy be the same as a husband who wants to lick his wife! Because boy sucking can’t just be sex: messy, human, ordinary. Oh no. It must be elevated, purified, assigned a syllabus and a divine mission statement. Because if it’s just… normal? The whole sacred scaffolding collapses and we can’t have that. When you only look through only one lens, every landscape starts to look identical. Which explains the constant “just read the Greek Love website” refrain. It’s the digital equivalent of someone brandishing the catechism like it’s a walkthrough guide to existence. “If you’d just read it, you’d understand.” Which really means: please marinate in the same pre-approved material we did so you can start filtering out anything that doesn’t fit the script. The irony, of course, is that anyone with a remotely serious intellectual backbone who actually reads that website sees just how seedy and screwed up a lot of BLs are, but if you’re reading with doctrinal blinders welded on, you won’t notice. And, predictably, they don’t. |
