“Male sexualism is the name of the only ideology which systematically opposes the current war on sex. I am taking it upon myself to flesh out what our ideology is all about. I will do so in a series of blog posts and ultimately a book to be called The Male Sexualist Manifesto.

Our concern is sexual legislation. We regard sex as fundamentally good, and resist unreasonable laws against sexual behavior. This is a HUGE political area, so we have no shortage of issues to deal with, but they are all concerned with increasing sexual freedom. The way we do this is mostly to fight criminalization, but we may also advocate sexual redistribution in some form from women to men, since sex is a female resource.” Eivind Berge”

I’m familiar with this term…

As a BoyLover, I find the very concept of Male Sexualism to be something…for which man boy love could be a prime model.

…How much deeper can you get into the realm of male sexuality, than males with males?

Of course…that’s not to imply male sexuality is all about homosexuality…It’s not…

…But man boy love is a pure form, of male sexuality…

…Female sexuality is not even in the mix.

“UK government defends the use of under 16s as covert operatives

“David Davis, the Tory former cabinet minister, has branded recruitment of child spies “morally repugnant”, as he led politicians and human rights groups in condemnation of police and intelligence agencies’ use of the tactic.

The recruitment of children as so-called covert human intelligence sources emerged this week after a House of Lords committee raised the alarm over proposals to loosen restrictions surrounding it.

The secondary legislation committee reported that the home office security minister, had informed it there was ‘increasing scope’ for children to be used to counter crimes such as terrorism, gang violence, drug dealing and child sexual exploitation.”

01) 2020 Democratic Candidates Ranked By CNN

“We are in the below-the-surface part of the presidential primary fight right now — and will be for at least the next five months, while the Democratic Party focuses on trying to win back control of the House and Senate. But just because you don’t see or hear about everything that’s going on doesn’t mean it’s not happening.
Which brings us to our rankings of the 10 men and women most likely — as of today — to wind up as the Democratic nominee in 2020. In ranking these candidates, we considered current polling, historic trends and lessons that the 2018 Democratic primaries have taught us. So, we tended to default to early polling leaders. And women. And liberals.”
