Talk:Puff, the Magic Dragon

Ambiguity

Did Jackie Paper go away because he lost interest in Puff, or because Puff lost interest in him? Was Puff sad because Jackie went away, or because Jackie was no longer a boy (and therefore no longer as desirable)? Lysander (talk) 16:08, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

Jackie Paper went away because he grew up. Sometimes Lysander, you have a very odd POV. It is not because he was "no longer as desirable" to Puff. Jackie Paper had simple outgrown the need for childhood things and moved on to adult things. Boylovers and pederasts in particular, rarely cast a boy away because he has gotten too old, they tend always to be the ones who are left... like a little bird leaving the nest or other such metaphors. Boylovers may have to let go and understand that is time for our boy to move on, but we never cast away our boy while he still needs us and we are always there for them when the need to feel safe and come home, even when they are grown men. --Etenne 17:49, 25 October 2016 (UTC)
