		<title>Advent Calendar 23rd December 2011: Morocco!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;ll skip Michael Davidson&#8217;s descriptions of prison life &#8211; hey, it&#8217;s already the 23rd! &#8211; and jump straight to Morocco. Davidson went there in 1937 &#8211; 40 years old &#8211; when he &#8220;came out&#8221; (of prison). Page 182 (chapter 13) in The World, the Flesh and Myself: In Rabat I met Mustapha.

		<title>Advent Calendar 22nd December 2011: Modern heretics</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Following the story of his imprisonment, Michael Davidson gives some examples on how media and public figures describe sex with youth as worse than murder. These examples are from &#8220;today&#8221;, meaning 1962 when the book was written. Davidson cites one judge saying: The man who kills does no more than shorten a human life. But [...]]]></description>

		<title>Advent Calendar 21st December 2011: Pleading guilty</title>
		<description><![CDATA[London in 1936. Michael Davidson and his young friend have been followed by the police, and then: &#8220;the unspeakable, the unthinkable, had happened &#8211; I had been arrested.&#8221; The charges were unknown to him, but the boy, &#8220;poor Bill&#8221;, who had been taken to the police station with Davidson, had given a &#8216;statement&#8217; and Davidson&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Advent Calendar 20th December 2011: Mothering a boy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Page 168 in Michael Davidson&#8217;s The World, the Flesh and Myself: In the middle of 1936 I was living in a mean room off the Camden Road. Here I was &#8216;mothering&#8217; a boy called Ray, a truant from home or perhaps reformatory: a touching psychopathic creature who lied and stole and wetted the bed in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Advent Calendar 19th December 2011: Divine friend, much desired</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re leaving Berlin now, or rather: Michael Davidson fled Berlin in 1933 after being chased by the Nazis, who had just gained (more) power. It&#8217;s an exciting story to say the least, but we&#8217;ll skip it and head back to London. Davidson fled there via Prague and Vienna. It&#8217;s about 1935 now, Davidson is 38 [...]]]></description>

		<title>Advent Calendar 18th December 2011: 14-year-old Werner</title>
		<description><![CDATA[And then I met Werner. I had, of course, surveyed the city&#8217;s swimming-baths; and most afternoons was going to those in the Bärwaldstrasse, somewhere in the wilderness beyond Hallesches Tor. And there one day, naked beneath the showers, I found the most startingly beautiful person I&#8217;d ever seen: a living, and lively, Beardsley decoration of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Advent Calendar 17th December 2011: Berlin, Berlin!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Chapter 11 in Michael Davidson&#8217;s The World, the Flesh and Myself begins with a description of Berlin in the 1920s, with its Strichjungen and Stundenhotels, theaters that produced &#8220;serious plays of a sexual audacity that would have shocked London for the next 25 years&#8221;, and, of course, Magnus Hirschfeld&#8217;s legendary Institut der Sexualwissenschaft, in whose [...]]]></description>

		<title>Advent Calendar 16th December 2011: Public baths part 5 &#8211; playful masturbatory frolic</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For as long as civic memory went back, men and boys at the &#8216;town&#8217; bathing places, like members of the University at Parson&#8217;s Pleasure, had worn nothing at all; it was an Oxford tradition &#8211; a tradition which old Dundas (he must have been in his late 50s) was mightily concerned to preserve. At Long [...]]]></description>
