(urth) S.R. Delany's "Neveron" Stories

[Dan'l Danehy-Oakes]

The difference is that he's not that particular kind of pervert, but
politically supports their right to exist. His argument (which I do _not_
agree with) is that man-boy love was acceptable in society much longer than
it's been unacceptable, and that it became unacceptable when it was no
longer beneficial to the economic ruling classes.

As I said: A Marxist.
