"The definition of Pederasty is pretty much universal"
Well, it appears you were quoting mining and were seeking variants where the word “anal” happened to come up in the definition or commentary (again your utter fascination with all things anal!) However as we look at the links we find that anal is just one expression of this, and as we know from history it was not usual--and was often taboo--along with all other carnal expressions of affection or esteem.

Wikipedia
Pederasty or paederasty (US: /'p?d?ræsti/, UK: /'pi?d?ræsti/) is a (usually erotic) homosexual relationship between a young man and a pubescent boy outside his immediate family. The word pederasty derives from Greek (paiderastia) "love of boys",[1] a compound derived from pa?? (pais) "child, boy" and ??ast?? (erastes) "lover".

Athenian pederasty entailed a formal bond between an adult man and an adolescent boy outside his immediate family, consisting of loving and often sexual relations. As an erotic and educational custom it was initially employed by the upper class as a means of teaching the young and conveying to them important cultural values, such as bravery and restraint.
Athenian society generally encouraged the erastes to pursue a boy to love, tolerating up to sleeping on the youth's stoop and otherwise going to great lengths to make himself noticed. At the same time, the boy and his family were expected to put up resistance and not give in too easily, and boys who succumbed too readily were looked down upon. As a result, the quest for a desirable eromenos was fiercely competitive

Cretan pederasty was an archaic form of pederasty[1] that involved the ritual kidnapping (harpagmos) of a noble boy by an adult male of the aristocratic class, with the consent of the boy's father.
The man (known as philetor, "befriender") took the boy (known as kleinos, "glorious") into the wilderness, where they spent several months hunting and feasting with their friends

Pederasty 161 up, 64 down
n. Refers to a very specific type of male gay love. One male is distinctively older, say 40+. The other male is younger, but past puberty (16-24). As opposed to pedophilia, both parties are sexually mature-- and the younger man is willing.
Websters online
has no definition for pederasty in their simplistic online dictionary but they do incorrectly use anal intercourse as what defines a pederast. Absolutely incorrect as we have seen, as it lets millions of pederasts past and present off the hook and simply makes them heterosexuals--which they are obviously not!
Lexic.us
Includes both, 1. Noun. Sexual relations between a man and a boy (usually anal intercourse with the boy as a passive partner).
And1. Noun. Erotic love, sexually expressed or chaste, between a man and an adolescent boy.
So when you shout out a definition that you (for some reason) prefer because you (for some reason) are fixated on your anus as your only expression of sexuality or love, you certainly make no points and you certainly do not obliterate the great majority of definitions which correctly define pederasty as male love between a mature man and an adolescent. You do not wipe out the books, the essays, the research...of historians, cultural anthropologists, sexologists, or any other of the experts who spend lifetimes studying such things in a framework of science and honesty.
Honesty. That is your main problem; isn’t it? You do every thing possible to mislead, misrepresent, and misattribute.
Academic definitions
In sexology, anthropology and history, the term "pederasty" has generally been used to describe relationships and desires that conform more to the classical understanding of the practice than to its modern interpretations.
In sexology, pederasty has been defined as "The erotic relationship between an adult male and a youth, generally one between the ages of twelve and seventeen, in which the older partner is attracted to the younger one who returns his affection" Vern L. Bullough. An alternative definition generalizes it to "the relationship between a man and a pubescent or postpubertal boy, generally under the age of eighteen" |
