Sorry loli pedos, Nietzsche was a shotacon

>The erotic relation of men to youths was the necessary and sole preparation, to a degree unattainable to our comprehension, of all manly education (pretty much as for a long time all higher education of women was only attainable through love and marriage). All idealism of the strength of the Greek nature threw itself into that relation, and it is probable that never since have young men been treated so attentively, so lovingly so entirely with a view to their welfare (virtus) as in the fifth and sixth centuries B.C.— according to the beautiful saying of Holderlin: “denn liebend giebt der Sterbliche vom Besten”. The higher the light in which this relation was regarded, the lower sank intercourse with women.

Let's not forget that the founder of Western philosophy, Socrates, seduced his students in a context of Greek pederasty. Nietzsche saw this eroticism as the strength behind Greek and French philosophy, pic related
