The Man Without a Face (book)‎‎ has potential. BoyLovers would appreciate the sympathetic treatment in the book, and if BoyWiki provided good reading for BoyLovers then more of them may explore BoyWiki. It's called "good public relations". ;-)

Of course, the article would need to be expanded a little... User4 (talk) 21:45, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
