Default Nearly 50% of all Men...

Please discuss this as an adult who is mature and able. Please read the book yourself first and then discuss this.

There is a book Men should read. FORBIDDEN FRIENDSHIPS, by Michael Rocke (Oxford University Press). The book discusses Men and Sexuality 1400-1500 A. D. that lived in Florence, Italy. The book gives in the Bibliography (at the back of the book) the sources utilized to write this book and for those that wish to check the sources for themselves. You will want to do that for yourself.

Nearly 50% of all Men who lived in Florence, Italy, were involved with each other Sexually. This book discusses this. It talks about those Men that were caught and those that were charged with that "catching" who also were found to also be Sexually involved with Men who lived in this town. After reading this book you will want to think about this too: if this happened in this one town, how about in towns in the rest of the world?

This book is very well written and documented. It is not a waste of anyone's time. It also helps Men to understand about life and living honestly.

Sorry to go off topic, but are you a homosexualist? It seems that all you have done on this board is to promote men to be open about their sexuality towards each other. Why so intrigued by homosexuality an the topic thereof?

I seek to know the truth about any subject. I do not just "accept" what others "say". I look into the subject with an open mind and objectively. That is the only way anyone really learns anything.

The problem is that most of the subjects you bring up are homosexuality related....

As for the book "Forbidden Friendships" I don't think I would ever make the time to read such a book. I have better things to do than read about gay guys in the 1500's. It just won't make it on my "things to do" list...

See, HERE is your "problem". You are so "open" to "IDEAS" that you'll "never" come to a CONCLUSION about "anything".

"People" LEARN "things" by "trial and error" an "making mistakes". YOU are "so" "open" to everything, because "you" FEAR making a "mistake" about FORMING a "conclusion".

locked...

i dont give a rats ass if all you closet homosexuals want to dicuss this.

John H, quit with the gay threads... I'm giving you a public warning. This is a bodybuilding website. If you want to peddle and discuss gay issues then you are on the wrong site.

I'd rather have a member like you banned than to lose serious bodybuilding members as they are fed up of reading this crap.
