The following code of ethics is my own edited version of one
found in the book, Sexual Experience Between Men and Boys, by
Parker Rossman.
1 - A boylover should do everything possible to protect his
young friend from any harm, including exposure or embarrassment
from arrest. This could mean abstaining from fully consensual
sexual relations if such is illegal in the state or country
where the boylover lives.
2 - A boylover should protect his own reputation, so that his
young friends will not be hurt or suffer as a result of
association with him.
3 - A boylover must be truthful and honest, and never lie to
his young friends.
4 - A boylover should not seek intimate contact with a boy,
without knowing and understanding the boy's interests and
feelings.
5 - Intimacy with a boy should never develop into a sexual
relationship without the boy fully consenting and understanding
the social, legal, and health implications of the relationship.
6 - Boys should not be treated as sexual objects to be enjoyed
at the whim of a boylover.
7 - A boylover must respect the role and authority of a boy's
parents and not seek to undermine that role.
8 - A boylover should not provide his young friends with
alcohol or drugs, and certainly will never use drugs to weaken
a boy's sexual inhibitions, or "to get him into the mood" for
sexual intimacy.
9 - A boylover has the responsibility of encouraging and
helping a boy to develop his normal heterosexual tendencies,
unless the boy confirms that he has an innate homosexual
orientation.
10 - A boylover should guide and encourage his young friends to
stay in school, avoid crime, and do all he can do to help them
to develop a successful career.
11 - A boylover should not "cruise" to pick up strange boys for
sexual encounters, because that encourages boys to "hustle" or
prostitute themselves.
Law that is Unjust is not Law.
