It is funny, the things we take for granted. Superbly poignant to have them pointed out from the view of one who has had to struggle, make difficult decisions and take action. I hope you enjoy the NYT article I just sent along.

Isn't desire grand? Odd thing: I was off to my juggling get-together on Thursday, and stopped in at the locker room which doubles as washroom/pissoir. By golly if there wasn't a young fellow just pulling on his trousers in 'commando' fashion as I passed the entry to the change area. I had to admire. He was rather elegantly turned out from behind. Desire? Well, not so much, but it was some rather fine nakedness. I doubt I would be able to handle...um...control myself so well in the ladies locker room.
