Voluptuous Panic had a section on "Wild-Boys", hypersexual BDSM-style roving gangs of teenagers. This and other characteristics of "Weimar degeneracy" were often discussed on 4chan's /pol/, by white nationalists who often came there to spread their word I assume. Seeing such a mention is what led me to a rabbit hole, I later wrote a short Wikipedia article on Mel Gordon, the writer of that work. Apparently pedaresty was something treated on par with homosexuality those days[1]—Oscar Wilde was a pedarest, now remembered more for the "homosexuality trial". Many prominent writers, artists and such engaged in it, without much consequence. Perhaps Weimar was a bit more extreme, but the attitude seen there wasn't limited to Weimar alone. It was only much later that pedaresty was fully decoupled from homosexuality. If I remember correctly, NAMBLA was a member of the international LGBT alliance until the 1990s.
