I escaped anything like molestation of the physical kind but was thoroughly traumatised witnessing what went on behind the scenes in the Cathedral were I was a pipe organ student. Invited to a weekend away at the seaside by a group of priests I was offered the ‘privilege’ of being the naked offering on their domestic black mass alter. I fled.
All this had a profoundly negative effect on my view of religion but not male/male sexuality. When I hit 14 I knew I was attracted to males of my age and indulged. It was only very good luck that saved me from potential disaster when I soon discovered a strong attraction to older males.
Apologies to those of you who’ve read me on this subject previously.
