As I’ve grown older, I’ve developed an attraction for pretty men. What work of literature will shed light on the roots of this issue I have?

>> No.17902356

Read plato, then you might not feel so alone.

It's not gay to find men attractive. Viggo Mortensen and Mads Mikkelsen are objectively beautiful, but I don't masturbate about them. I do like masculine features however, and am very attracted to tomboys. No reading recs, but if you don't like fit/boisterous women, and you're sexualizing men then you're probably gay.

I'm attracted to them because I've never been one. My face and body have always been fucked up.

This, read Lysis. It's a quick and comfy read about male love and friendship

>> No.17902568

Start with the Greeks my friend. Plato's Symposium, Phaedrus, Charmadies, and Lysis for your perusal.

>> No.17902784

Confessions of a Mask, especially if you also want to hurt them. Might be just me though.

When did male friendship became homosexual in society's eyes?

mishima clearly was a homosexual from youth. he describes his first feelings of sexual attraction as occuring very early in life. op (a faggot) developed this later on. this is the book for that.

What are other gay Mishima books? I'm reading confessions of mask and I find myself relating to everything. The longing for death before I have to face the responsibilities of who I am, the way he discovered his sexuality, the way he lies to himself, the way he postures as a straight little kid in love etc. I want to know more.

Forbidden Colors is his most explicitly gay work. But it's more satirical and decadent and less the melancholy vainglorious Mishima of Confessions.

>> No.17904160

Forbidden Colours definitely, as >>17904144
says.

No work of literature will shed light on it. The answer is that you're sexually frustrated. A good deal of incels become faggots since they can't get women

It's a well studied phenomenon that sexually frustrated males will turn to whatever is available.

See: Catholic Church
and to a different extent, prison.

The reason the Catholics have so many fags is that they don't allow their chaps to marry; who, pray tell, would join an organisation disallowing marriage? Perhaps one for whom that was never even an option in the beginning?

Supposedly the numbers are insane, 60+% or something. My school music teacher raped boys btw.
