Suggestions on where to start.
There are different Satanic authors / teachers and Satanic systems out there. Each Satanic system has its own emphasis and tone. There is no "one way" to be in relationship with Satan and/or to be Satan.
Any suggestions I make are LIMITED. There are many other options besides what I suggest here.
First...before anything....decide what general category of Satanism works for you. Here are some of the continuums:
Theisitc-----Atheistic or strictly just political
Ritually oriented------free form
socialized-----solitary
self-love / self-empowerment oriented-------self-destructive oriented
pro-social-----anti-social (anti-social has a continuum all its own).
Do research on Satanism and do some critical thinking.
If Satanism is only about your dick and cock...then that is what it will be.
If Satanism is about power....then that is what it will be.
If Satanism is about becoming your True and Wisest Satanic Self....then that is what it will be.
You can also mix and match.
Things to think about:
There is a perception that only Dominant Males can truly be Satanic - that is false.
***Satanists can also be Submissive, or Bottom Men. Subs who are also Satanic Priests are EXTREMELY powerful.
***There is a perception that you must engage in unsafe sex to be a Satanist - that is false. You can choose to do that, but that is a personal choice, not a mandate from Satan.
***There is a perception that you MUST use drugs in order to be a Satanist - that is also false.
***Contrary to what meth-devotees might suggest in here....most Satanists do NOT use drugs, in fact, your Satanic Path will advance more quickly if you are sober and clean: Satan can better use you sober and clean.
***Satan is not the Genie In Alladin, where you rub the lamp, He appears, and grants wishes.
***Satan responds to action and devotees who take 100% responsibility for their lives and how they live.
Having said all the above, here are some suggestions, that I have looked into.
Starting closer to home:
***On this GSB site, Malik Zaldron's Satanism:
Malik has some writings: the Black Souls, The Satanic Path and the Black Room (a collection of Satanic rituals within his version of Satanism). Malik presents a structured, evolutionary model of Satanism, emphasizing self-mastery, experiential learning, and the transcendence of limitations. His vision is both elitist and transformative, with a strong undercurrent of Nietzschean will-to-power, existential self-definition, and adversarial progression.
***The writings and teachings of Aleister Nacht (straight, Theistic Satanist, head of the Magnum Opus in Florida). Ritual, occult magick oriented, can be either solitary or communal. He is a clear thinker with a YouTube channel and a Patreon. I highly value him as a teacher and mentor for myself.
***My favorite basic instruction book: the Self-Initiation Course on page 94 of The Devil's Bible by Lillianne Diabolique. It is a self-paced training course that lasts a year and allows the potential practitioner to drop easily and fully into a Traditional Theistic Satanism over a year.
***For Atheistic Satanists....there is always the classic writings of Anton Levey from the Church of Satan. His basic, most famous book is "The Satanic Bible". He has other writings.
You want to look at different authors.
Other ideas:
***The Joy of Satan webpage. These are Satanists who view Satan and His Court as aliens from other planets. Interesting stuff, not my cup of tea.
***Cipher Grove for learning basic Demonology in a safe and structured, self-paced way. He charge for it, but his material is well organized. I like his clarity of thought and simply practical application.
What to avoid:
***I would advocate completely avoiding the Order of Nine Angels. They have only a text - very solitary, very anti-social, and very illegal. I personally always go by the standards in BDSM: safe, sane, legal and consensual, if you choose otherwise, accept what comes to you and take responsibility for your choice(s).
Other authors, groups:
***Martin McGregor
***Michael Ford (a Luciferian) - do you know the difference between a Satanist and a Luciferian? Look it up.
***The Brotherhood of Satan-USA (a mostly heterosexual Satanic tradition out of Atlanta, Georgia with many LGBTQ members) - they have a Facebook and Google page,
***Marie Ravensoul. Her writings are harder to get now. She was a devoted Satanist, who went christian and pulled her materials off the internet, but she had some great writings.
There are many, many other really qualified authors and great Satanic traditions out there to pick and choose from.
A word about the Satanic porn & hypno videos and such:
****They are pleasurable, (I enjoy one now and then myself) but they will tend to get you stuck in a mental loop that is hard to break out of....and you will not learn anything or grow (contrary to the assertions made by those who create this kind of content). You will just be wanking for hours on end and be alone. After years of being stuck in that, I learned and changed my behaviors and goals and focus in Satan. If that is a type of Satanism that appeals to you...go for it. For me it is very surface and a waste of my time and my seed. Why wank in front of a video when I can seed (jack or fuck) with a guy in person? Right?
If you find a really solid and reputable Satanic Priest or teacher, and they ask a reasonable price for their training, even if it is self-paced, seriously consider it. Getting stuff for free: you won't value it, and they will not value you. Mentoring, supportive, wise and gifted Satanic Priests are very few and very difficult to find. If you find one, learn from Him (or Her).
Finally, network, network, network. Connect with Brother Satanists...while you still can. What's coming down the tubes could leave us Gay Men, especially Gay Satanists, all wanking in our separate corners and crying in our piss. Now is the time to network, network, network with other M4M Satanists: establish friendships, try to meet in person, exchange modes of communication (phone, email, social media) with Men you feel safe with.
Following Satan, as He reveals Himself to you requires a process of consistent search, questioning, study, and application on your part. Just keep saying "yes" to Satan AND TAKING ACTION, and your path will be shown you.
I hope these ideas are helpful. If so, take what works and leave the rest.

I like your detailed explanation and it guides me to what is further, more complete and better
