FOREWORD

In the book, Sex in America, edited by Henry Grunwald, it states: “the temptations of sex try the rational capacities of many persons. Certainly the many heavy sexual pressures which our culture places on young people should be lightened. But there are other sexual temptations which try our rational capacities also. Nor does the interpersonal relationship approach rely solely upon sheer intellectualism and the exertion of will power. The genuine and deep satisfactions of meaningful interpersonal relationships create a capacity in the individual for self-acceptance and identification.” And it was this that Terry O’Brian found in his affair with Gordon Lewis, at once his music teacher and instructor in love. They were haunted by the need to hide their forbidden passion.
