Don't associate too much with young men or else you might end up experimenting with homosexuality!!!
There is the concept of "institutional homosexuality." The idea is that men who are restricted to the company of men, are likely to turn to anal/oral sex with another male.
It's supposed to have been a common practise in the earlysettlement in Australia. Most of the people sent here were male (convicts or military), and the big convict prison still in existence in Macquarie street in the city is said to have been the scene of some great orgies ( if you like orgies ?? -grin), with younger convicts dressed up as girls and being 'gang-banged.'
It is still common in most prison systems in the world.
Military forces are another place where 'institutional homosexuality'occurs. Winston Churchill scathingly referred to its occurrence in the Royal Navy, When he was in charge of the Navy and was accused of interfering with its traditions, he sneered,
"What traditions? The traditions of the Royal Navy are the lash, rum and sodomy."
And, of course, English Public Schools (Like Eton and Harrow etc) are famed for being hot-beds of male 2 male sex.
And, we know that Catholic seminaries are also supposed to be rife with male 2 male sex.
So it should come as no surprise to find that Bethel homes have also been places were 'institutional homosexuality' occurred, especially when young men have such a fine example in front of them as David and Jonathon>
What a wonderful drama it would make:
Based on 1 Samuel 17 on and on:
Beautiful young David ( vs 17) turns up to fight ugly Goliath, and, unexpectedly wins., and is taken to meet the King (of course)
And as David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him, and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.
And Saul said to him, Whose son art thou, thou young man? And David answered, I am the son of thy servant Jesse the Bethlehemite.
Jonathon is (of course) present and while Saul is talking to David, Jonathon can't stop looking at the kid. (age 15 wasn't he).
So (wink) we know what's going to happen next ....
(1)And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking unto Saul, that the soul of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.
And notice, David now moves into the palace, so that he can be with Jonathon
(2)And Saul took him that day, and would let him go no more home to his father's house.
Kinda like a wedding ceremony, isn't it?
(3) Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.
Next there's some gift giving:
(4) And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
Sexy, isn't it? Jonathon strips naked, (underwear wasn't invented yet), takes David's clothes off and dresses David in his (Jonathon's) clothing.
So you have: DAVID AND JONATHON'S BIG GAY WEDDING !!
Who said there were no gay weddings in the Bible?
