Boylove Essays

  • (Boylove Essays) - The Descent of Chester - This essay was originally posted to BoyChat in the late 1990's and was reposted by Ironclad on October 24, 2005. It is considered a classic. The ideas presented in this essay were well before Rind's Evolutionary Normalcy of Hebephilia which was published in 2012. Satirical and intelligent, it explores the possible evolutionary origins of those attracted to boys. Whether you agree with the concepts presented or not, this is a must read essay for every boylover.
  • (Boylove Essays) - The Exquisite Corpse of Ganymede - This essay examines surviving fragments of the Zeus and Ganymede myth and identifies two interwoven discourses on male love in antiquity: one, a tradition integral to a Cretan initiatory rite, its didactic nature evidenced by an analogous and opposite Boeotian cautionary myth; the other, a nucleus of polemical and shifting male love constructions from Minoan times through Late Antiquity.
