Greetings Keith A of Hereford.
Have just read your post of 29.1.13.                                 I was unaware that there was a book on the subject, my information came from an article in one of the broadsheets reviewing a study into the effects of unaturally close relationships between boys and young men and their mothers. The conclusion reached in that research was that young men who had had such relationships were psychologically unfitted for a relationship with a mature woman for the rest of their lifes but remained a great and continuing threat to young girls for that time. A good recent example of this would be the odious Saville.
Not having a great interest in the article my only reaction was sadness that "A Boys Own Paper Hero" should be exposed as having feet of clay   The girls rich family moved in the same circles as the family of the mother of Tony Benn, Viscount Stansgate[dis.]
