I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited."

Of course they would try to persuade a girl to have sex and say they would marry her later, but assoon as she gave in, they would lose all respect for her and start saying that if she did that with them she would do that with other men and they would end up by making her lifemiserable."
