I think it's worth pointing out, for all the "Übermensch Nietzschean National Socialist Apollonian Hellenist" types that Nietzsche thought there was nothing wrong with pederasty (or, it can be argued, pedophilia).

In fact, he jokingly was ambivalent to it exactly BECAUSE the Christians hated it. To Nietzsche, Christians hate the sexual. They hate eroticism. They hate pleasure. All these things are fundamental to the human experience. So, naturally, Nietzsche supported "eros", he supported the idea of turning Christian "slave morality" on its head.

Pedos and pederasts are, then, "beyond good and evil". Pedos/pederasts are the real "Übermensch".
