Male sexuality is inherently manic-depressive.  Androgen agitates.  Men are
in a constant state of sexual anxiety, living on the pins and needles of
their hormones.  In sex as in life they are driven *beyond* -- beyond the
self, beyond the body.  Even in the womb this rule applies.  Every fetus is
female unless it is steeped in male hormone produced by a signal from the
developing fetus's gonads.  Before birth, the male is already exiled from
the female, exiled from the center of life.  They are born knowing they are
sexual exiles.  They wander the earth seeking satisfaction, craving, never
content.  There is nothing in the anguished *motion* of men for women to
envy.
