Oh How The Mighty Have Fallen

“When spider webs unite, they can tie up a lion” 

 Ethiopian Proverb

pederasty

"sodomy with a boy," 1609, from Mod.L. pæderastia, from Gk. paiderastia "love of boys," from paiderastes "pederast," from pais (gen. paidos) "child, boy" (see pedo-) + erastes "lover," from erasthai "to love." Pederast is 1730s, from Fr. pédéraste, from Gk. paiderastes.

 

 

It bothers me that one question, in regards to the outrageous scandal brewing at Penn State, has yet to be asked:  What is it about the European male that gives him propensity to liking young males?  Granted, I have met many Europeans from all across the continent that haven't given me any inkling in the slightest to this query.  And for what it's worth, while I don't agree either with the taking of prepubescent girls as brides, concubines and consorts, even given different cultures and societal acceptances, there is something fundamentally different.  Anybody that would twist that last sentence into something akin to permission to those that would marry a child is completely sick.  What I am most concerned with right now though, is what would make these grown men, as in the case of Penn State defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky, unconscionably desire, molest, rape young children, especially boys?
