- Two gay trilogies worth a read
(Book review, Bernie Najarian, March 27, 2016)
- Many same-sex-attracted MAPs these days profess to feel completely separate from the gay community (sorry, LGBT-ETC-but-no-P community), but in reality, writings that are potentially relevant to us get published fairly often by members of that community.

They are grouped by categories named “scenarios,” of which four principal types are identified, “Hybristic erastes;” “Enkratic erastes and collaborative eromenos;” “Imprudent erastes and eromenos;” and “Hybristic eromenos.” Each scenario type is labeled according to the dominant dynamic of the stories in the group.
