Tsampa and sodomy. Why Tibetans are gay. I made an off the cuff comment about Tibetan Buddhism vis a vis the Mongols that I wanted to extrapolate on. Chiefly that the universal pederasty in Tibetan Buddhism makes the Catholic Church look like innocent little babies.
Unlike the middle eastern crowd with their natural love of the anus. Tibetans became so because of the expansion of monastic political power. Accretion of land to monasteries concentrated power, which always seeks to perpetuate itself.
Problem was. Ostensibly celibate male monks can't procreate. The solution to this was the dragooning of peasant kids into monasteries. This kind of got out oh hand and a third of the population ended up becoming monks who owned the land worked by peasants.
This had as dramatic an impact on Tibetan demographics as it did on Mongol ones, several centuries of gradual population decline. Unlike their Chinese counterparts which recruits young adults and old men absconding from secular life, Tibetans are not nearly as selective.
Men have needs, some men less so than others. When a third of your male population is conscripted into a life long sausage fest, suffice it to say you have long run out of self denying bookish types. With no women at hand, the child acolytes would serve.
Rape of male children is a universal feature, not bug of Tibetan Buddhism. Open secret studiously ignored by all Western devotees. That isn't to say the monks are particularly selective, they will molest women too. Also studiously ignored.
