I blasted through it in a single sitting last night and remain conscious today only due to espresso and the half-life buzz of reading adrenaline. This book is the first half of the personal memoirs of Don Sweetenham, who has traveled widely, starting out in Britain and settling near Atlanta, Georgia. And I have little sympathy for a man in his 40's who hangs out at bars, dance and sex clubs whilst complaining about the lack of men in these establishments who are interested in commitment. Andy Johnson is a fine writer with a marvellous knowledge of soldiers and soldiering. Throughout the book the expected result wasn't what happened, from who and where the 'bad guy' was, to what was going on with a talking head.

the evolution of masculinity in China.Vitiello’s story unfolds chronologically, beginning with the earliest sources on homoeroticism in pre-imperial China and concluding with a look at developments in the twentieth century. Along the way, he identifies a number of recurring characters—for example, the libertine scholar, the chivalric hero, and the lustful monk—and sheds light on a set of key issues, including the social and legal boundaries that regulated sex between men, the rise of male prostitution, and the aesthetics of male beauty. Drawing on this trove of material, Vitiello presents a historical outline of changing notions of male homosexuality in China, revealing the integral part that same-sex desire has played in its culture.
