From a letter I wrote to a book author about boys back in 1998:
Quote:
My LDS (Mormon) religious background inhibits me from admitting that a Just God would create a biological or genetic predisposition toward a type of behavior that He then openly condemns as so sinful as to warrant the death penalty, at least in the Old Testament.
Our Society has saddled itself with a not-necessarily natural need to "pigeonhole" everything and everyone, especially in a medical way. I am perfectly willing to accept the idea of genetic predisposition as a way for the Lord to "Give men weaknesses [so that by overcoming them] they may become strengths" [See Hebrews 11:34; and LDS Book of Mormon, Ether 12:27 & 37].
My college training in agriculture and Bacteriology (B.S., 1981, U.of Idaho) included genetics, and I have followed the discoveries in the field since then with some relish, particularly with respect to the Human Genome Project. But I don't believe that there is a genetic predisposition to becoming a homosexual. Rather, I DO believe in a genetic predisposition to thought patterns and ways of doing things, so-called "non-masculine" types of behavior that, in a very real sense have been earmarked by our culture, particularly in the last 20 years, as indicative that a person is, or will become, a homosexual, IN THE ABSENCE OF OTHER PEER-PRESSURED ALTERNATIVES.
Consider, if you will, the possibility of an alternative truth:
In a less gendered society (e.g. you can be ONLY one thing or the other), where men are NOT guided, pushed, forced, categorized, pigeonholed, etc., into homosexuality as the ONLY means whereby their particular personalities, tendencies, ways of tackling problems, likes, dislikes, etc., can be more or less freely expressed without major peer and societal condemnation. The genetic predisposition might, instead, be classified as that of a poet, male "ballerina", florist, fashion designer or consultant, "Mozart", interior decorator, male seamstress (as opposed to tailor), or even clotheshorse or dandy (as in Dorian Gray). All of these "pigeonholes" have sissified connotations in large portions of American Society which, over the last 20-30 years, have been more or less lumped together into the super category of "homosexual". It ain't necessarily so!!!
I have most of the aforementioned tendencies, and have met several other LDS men (and at least one "Christian" non-LDS man) with similar likes and dislikes (but, they are by no means common). I was privileged to grow up in the LDS micro culture, which by itself, is no more accepting of "differences" than is the rest of western civilization. But I learned that homosexuality was "wrong", and, although considered a bit weird, I was tolerated by my peers. I wasn't automatically forced to gravitate to a Gay Community in order to receive Peer Validation and Acceptance. Had I grown up "out in the world", I would probably think of myself as "Gay" simply because there would have been no other way to be accepted by "peers". And THAT is the crux of my argument. Boys (or girls, for that matter) with a certain SET of desires, proclivities, or aspirations are simply NOT PERMITTED to become something other than a homosexual in our society today, at least not outside a few, mostly religious, micro cultures. And that is wrong, WRONG, WRONG!!!
And Colonel, GandP, ad nauseum. I have as much right to be Politically Incorrect as you do.

Fred, I looked this up just for you. I believe that even you can let go of inhibitions and the 'hang-ups' that you have. Here's a few tips for you.....
An Anal fetish is a relatively common sexual fascination with the anus. While others might not go so far as to claim a fetish, Anal play has become fairly common and destigmatized to the point that it shouldn't be too difficult to find someone with whom you can explore your kink. However, there are also several ways to satisfy your Anal fetish without the aid of a partner.
Explore Your Anal Fetish With a Partner
Step
1
Discuss your Anal fetish with tact. To those who've never experimented with Anal stimulation, it can be intimidating and painful. Be mindful of this when suggesting Anal play during sex.
Step
2
Use lubrication when stimulating an anus. Unlike the vagina, the anus is not a self-lubricating orifice. Without the proper lubrication, Anal insertions can be painful or damaging.
Step
3
Take time to savor the anus. Don't just leap straight into penile to Anal intercourse. Fingering can be a satisfying way to tease the anus and loosen it up prior to actual intercourse.
Step
4
Start slow. As with most sex acts, the reality of Anal intercourse is different from the way it's commonly presented in pornographic entertainment. Satisfying Anal intercourse is usually a marathon, not a sprint.
Step
5
Orally stimulate your partner's anus. Commonly referred to as rimming, anilingus is the Anal lover's equivalent of cunnilingus. Licking, stroking and teasing the anus can be a fun way to pleasure your partner and explore your Anal fetish at the same time.
Step
6
Experiment with "pegging." That's the name most commonly used to describe the sex act in which a woman uses a strap-on phallus to penetrate her partner's anus. This is commonly practiced in conjunction with dominance and submission role-play.
Satisfy Your Anal Fetish Without a Partner
Step
1
Stimulate your anus while masturbating. While pleasuring yourself, try stroking your anus or inserting a lubricated finger.
Step
2
Find sex toys to enhance your Anal play. Your neighborhood adult bookstore will likely stock all kinds of sex toys, many of which are specifically designed for the anus. Butt Plugs and Anal beads are two of the most popular kinds of Anal sex toys.
Step
3
Find pornography that features Anal play. Though there are websites exclusively geared towards Anal intercourse, many general pornographic websites will feature an Anal section. Watching pornography can be a great way to satisfy your Anal fetish when your partner isn't in the mood.
Fred, Look for videos under the title of Butt Munchers One more thing, just because you have an Anal fetish, it DOES NOT make you gay Or maybe you might be. I dunno about you.
