Sheikhs

Before the Internet, the National Geographic magazine was virtually the only source of pornography for the horny eleven-year-old white males of America.  Straight boys looked at pictures of the naked titties of ladies going into their menstrual huts in the upper reaches of the Orinoco.  Gay boys looked at pictures of Sheikhs, the indigenous nobility of the Middle East, riding ponies and hawking with raptors as stunningly beautiful as themselves.  They seldom took their clothes off--they didn't have to:  Just their faces, and their hands, revealed a world of virile beauty that any eleven-year-old gay boy in America would gladly have died for.
