It would be difficult for me not to conclude that the most perfect type of masculine beauty is Satan, as portrayed by Milton.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
As I see it, my focus has never been on masculine power rampant and triumphant but rather on the antithesis: masculine power impaired.
Masculine and feminine aspects exist in all beings.
There aren't a whole lot of people in culture that are unapologetically masculine.
There is no excellent beauty that hath not some strangeness in the proportion.
People are afraid to show women with demons. But I think it's important for women to see flawed female characters. We're held to a perfect standard, but every woman is flawed.
Beauty and the devil are the same thing.
I'm with Milton and the Rolling Stones: I don't find the Devil an unsympathetic character. But in any case, my fiction is populated as much by people who do good as it is by those who do bad. I'm interested in imaginatively accommodating as much of the human as possible, for which you need both moral extremes and everything in between.
A man's own manner and character is what most becomes him.
I hold that the perfection of form and beauty is contained in the sum of all men.
A man's primary fantasy is access to a variety of attractive women without the fear of rejection.
