But
occasionally, when sleeping with a male friend, he has emissions
in the act of embracing. The second is constantly and to an
abnormal extent (I should say) troubled with erotic dreams and
emissions, and takes drugs, by doctor's advice, to reduce this
activity. He has recently developed a sexual interest in women,
but for ethical and other reasons does not copulate with them. Of
the third I can say little, as he has not talked to me on the
subject; but I know that he has never had intercourse with women,
and has always had a natural and instinctive repulsion to the
idea. In all these, I imagine, the physical impulse of sex is
less imperative than in the average man. The emotional impulse,
on the other hand, is very strong. It has given birth to
friendships of which I find no adequate description anywhere but
in the dialogues of Plato; and, beyond a certain feeling of
strangeness at the gradual discovery of a temperament apparently
different to that of most men, it has provoked no kind of
self-reproach or shame.
