  The Encyclopedia of Homosexuality (1990) was edited by Wayne R. Dynes, with the assistance of associate editors William A. Percy, Warren Johansson, and Stephen Donaldson. It was published in two volumes by Garland Press in 1990. The Encyclopedia contains 770 articles. It was reviewed positively in Reference & User Services Quarterly and, at length, in the Journal of Homosexuality --- REFERENCE: Journal of Homosexuality Volume 21, Issue 4, 1991 --- . It was listed on several "best books of the year" lists. Originally published in 2 vols. (1484 p.) by Garland, New York, 1990, it is very positive on BoyLove. The editor Wayne Dynes was also on the board of Paidika. Although a big hit as a reference book when it first appeared, protests from lesbians led the publisher to withdraw it and cease publishing it.

  In Japan the wakashudō, also called nanshoku, describes a social, emotional and sexual relationship formed between an adult male and a young boy. Existing since at least the eighth century and popular until the nineteenth, it is the most durable pederastic institution attested to in the history of mankind.

   The Little League World Series (often abbreviated as LLWS) is a youth baseball championship which is held every August in Williamsport, PA. The LLWS includes representatives from nearly every part of the globe, although rule changes implemented in the mid-1990s ensure that one US team always plays in the championship game.
