I am a stereotype. I am an effeminate man.

The happiest moments in any affair take place after the loved one has learned to accommodate the lover and before the maddening personality of either party has emerged like a jagged rock from the receding tides of lust and curiosity.

You should make no effort to try to join society, stay right where you are. Give your name and serial number and wait for society to come to you.

I'm happy. I don't ever have to pay anything, and I don't ever have to wash the dishes, and I don't ever have to behave nicely.
