There is a long-standg, homophobic and transphobic tactic of accurately parg LGBTQ people to pedophil and beg LGBTQ to pedophilia. Laws that explicly mentn sexual orientatn primarily target, whether for protectn or harm, lbian, gay, and bisexual people.

In 1964, the year Damron first published his Addrs Book, gay sex was nsired a crime every state except Illois, and the Stonewall Uprisg, wily creded wh sparkg the ntemporary gay rights movement, was still five years away.

To ensure his work reached s tend dience, Damron plugged to existg works wh the unrground gay muny, addg his handbook to the array of eroti, pulp novels, physique magaz and other prted materials available to those the know.
