Все ми е едно, припвам нататък. Толкова кайпириня и хормони в мозъка ми. Складът съвсем не е така страшен, почти празен е с изключение на няколко маси и столове, етажерка в дъното. Педро отива до нея и изважда три кърпи. После ги разстила на пода. Поглеждаме се. Този кратък миг на несигурност, който все още изживявам, независимо от поредната бройка. Треперя. Педро слага ръце на бедрата ми, затваря очи. Целуваме се дълго, после бързо се събличам, за да надиграя и последната искрица колебание, малко бягство в аванс. Твърдият му член се плъзна по тясната ми тениска, която все още е на мен, нагоре-надолу, под тениската, върху ... |

Интелигентността днес не е достатъчна и дори понякога е вредна, защото ни кара да се вкопчваме в това, което знаем и което сме. По-голямо значение има способността ни да преосмисляме и да се отказваме от наученото, защото вече не е валидно, и дори от досегашните си възгледи, ако вече не ни служат. В ежедневието си обаче предпочитаме комфорта на увереността пред дискомфорта на съмнението. Вслушваме се в мнения, които ни карат да се чувстваме добре, вместо в идеи, които ни карат да мислим добре. Виждаме разногласията по-скоро като заплаха за ... |

"Принизяването на целия мъжки мозък единствено до "мозъкът под кръста" е добра основа за шегички, но по никакъв начин не представя мъжкия мозък в неговата цялостност.

Мъжкият мозък освен ... |
