Androphile Pride
()
About this ebook
Both the gay and androphile subcultures present strong dogmatic prescriptions of what it means to be a man who is sexually attracted to other men.
Rejecting the rigid views of both the Gay (LGBTQIA+) Community and the Androphilia Movement, "Androphile Pride" presents another perspective for men seeking to figure out who they are in the light of their sexual orientation and the pressures of conformity from LGBTQIA+ leaders who diagnose you with internalized homophobia if you question any part of their social/political agenda.
Furthermore, rejecting the propaganda put forth by these self-appointed LGBTQIA+ prophets does not mean that men who are sexually attracted to other men have to follow in blind lockstep with those views proposed by the originators of the Androphilia Movement.
After boldly examining the agendas of both the LGBTQIA+and Androphilia Movements, Graham proposes what he calls, the true androphile alternative. The true androphile is not bound by the propaganda you are being fed by these groups.
"Androphile Pride" provides an alternative world view, then guides the reader through a process of creation and integration. Actively engage with the content and you will build a strong sense of self that does not hinge on following every single view espoused by supposed LGBTQIA+ leaders, the supposed Androphilia leaders, nor anyone else.
A strong man doesn't accept what others tell him to believe. He finds his own path, guided by his own values.

"For it is dangerous to attach one's self to the crowd in front, and so long as each one of us is more willing to trust another than to judge for himself, we never show any judgement in the matter of living, but always a blind trust, and a mistake that has been passed on from hand to hand finally involves us and works our destruction. It is the example of other people that is our undoing; let us merely separate ourselves from the crowd, and we shall be made whole. But as it is, the populace, defending its own iniquity, pits itself against reason. And so we see the same thing happening that happens at the elections, where, when the fickle breeze of popular favour has shifted, the very same persons who chose the praetors wonder that those praetors were chosen."

The Gay Predicament
Let me tell you about Frank.
Frank knows. Somehow, Frank has always known. He’s a guy who likes guys. That’s about it.
He likes cock. Period.
All would be fine for Frank if it weren’t for other people.
Suddenly, there are all these other people who tell Frank WHO HE IS and WHAT HIS LIFE SHOULD LOOK LIKE, all simply because he likes cock.
The ultra-rigid-fear-mongering Christians tell him that he is demon spawn, recruited by an older man and now out to recruit boys to a life that will condemn them to hell. To them, Frank is a fag, more girl than boy, who doesn’t know the difference between a flat head and a Phillips head screwdriver.
The so-called gay movement also tells him that he is a fag, encourages him to celebrate his girlishness, and celebrates the fact that he likes cock with a bunch of other guys who like cock (and a few girls who like pussy) while he sips on a screwdriver with breakfast. It is so accepting. It feels like Frank has come home. And it feels like one big party. Frank, who is playfully called Francine, is told he can be himself – in a place where he is loved for who he is – not condemned as demon spawn simply for what he does. Except Frank is not loved for who he is (otherwise his new pals in the LGBTQIAPK community would call him Frank and not Francine). It is not long before Frank discovers that the liberal-leaning gay movement has a long list of views that he needs to not only accept, but also espouse in order to be accepted by the community.
In subtle and not-so-subtle ways, the LGBTQIAPKers indoctrinate Frank. He is educated to the fact that now that he acknowledges he’s a guy who likes cock, this also means he wants a woman for President. It also means that he likes the Village People. And transgender rights better be on the top of his list right under supporting abortion right up until the moment of delivery. He is now a feminist – and he better be a good one. And he better get some fashion sense – and rather quickly – because he is now the trusted advisor of home decorating tips for all his straight
friends.
The list goes on and on.
But Frank isn’t interested in any of this. He’s just interested in men. But that’s not enough for today’s LGBTQIAPKer community. He is told he needs to embrace himself, and that includes every aspect of their liberal agenda including accepting and promoting drag queens, aberrant gay behavior, and a host of stereotypes.
He is welcomed into the LGBTQIAPKer community or so it seems, and told that now he can be himself, or so it seems. But there is one long caveat: There is a list that defines what this self
is, and he better embrace it, or that welcome mat will be pulled up. He is told to show his gay pride. Vote this way, he is told. Paint your nails, put on some mascara, prance around in public and make a spectacle of yourself, he is told. And when he doesn’t join in lockstep with this world
