At work today, out in the fresh air, driving the harbour taxi, I saw boys on half term. I mean boys way below the age of any sexual awareness or interest. I just mean boys. And the pure state of boyhood struck me as a wonderful, glorious thing. The facial expressions when just being silly, or relaxing, or daring other boys to do things...

I wish that persisted even into puberty, let alone adulthood. It fades all to quickly as the serious business of teenage starts, then as responsibilities start.

There are no age checks on this forum. If the law says you need (eg) parental consent to post here then you need that consent.
Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
We treat everyone as having good sense and mature judgement.
