Freakin' awesome. I do not feel failed. In fact, I feel voyeur'd internally, as tho you've laid out in scattershot the disconnect of mind & emotion & body parts when rubbed together.

look, i don't like the piece that much, but i'm sure this isn't careless writing. it's just highly stylized, and not everyone's cup of tea. i have to say that i liked the fill in the blanks in the middle of all the long sentences.

now, now. easy on the boy. i actually found this a lovely bit of prose, and appreciate his willingness to explore the idea of intimidation and performance anxiety outside the context of not-being-able-to-get-it-up. sex is murky and often intangible, and i can relate to the bone-chilling fear that comes from guessing another's expectations and desires.

What is this crap? You have routinely featured some great writers here. Neal Pollack, etc. This guy should go back to reading Faulkner and spare the rest of us the results of his 'consciousness stream' until he becomes aquanted with that trusty tool, the period. Sorry for the vented spleen, but so much of what you feature is often so GOOD, the bad really stands out. Thanks for listening.

If the "one word" was fucking cunt, which is the only one I can think of, I'll cancel my subscription. There is no reason for anyone in this day and age to get so worked up about that damn word.
