A wide experience with boy-lovers has convinced the author that one can often learn more about them from reading some excellent novels than from so-called scientific studies. All too often research is unreliable because (1) it assumes pedosexual activity is a positive indicator of pedophilia; (2) no distinction is drawn between pseudo-pedophiles and real pedophiles; (3) no difference is recognized between boys and girls as partners; and (4) it is highly distorted by bias. Representative samples for research cannot be drawn from members of boy-love organizations. The incidence of violence is very low in pedophile contacts with boys. The influence can be strong in lasting relationships; it can be either wholesome or unwholesome. Within a relationship, sex is usually only a secondary element, although it can be important in sexual instruction and education. The impact of the law, the hostility of parents and the problem of the partners' inequality are discussed.
与恋童癖者打交道的广泛经历让作者深信，人们往往能从阅读一些优秀小说中比从所谓的科学研究中更多地了解他们。研究常常不可靠，原因如下：（1）它假定恋童性行为是恋童癖的积极指标；（2）未区分假性恋童癖者和真正的恋童癖者；（3）未认识到男孩和女孩作为伴侣的差异；（4）研究受到偏见的严重扭曲。研究的代表性样本无法从恋童组织成员中抽取。恋童癖者与男孩接触时暴力发生率很低。在持久关系中影响可能很大；这种影响可能是有益的，也可能是有害的。在一段关系中，性通常只是次要因素，尽管在性指导和教育中它可能很重要。文中还讨论了法律的影响、父母的敌意以及伴侣不平等的问题。
