“ Boys are rarely told that their virginity is a gift, or indeed that their sexuality is about “giving” something to another person – lightly or not. Boys “get laid”, “get lucky”, “get some”. They “take a girl’s virginity”, “take advantage”; if they’re thoughtful, they “take their time”. Boys are not taught to think of themselves or their virginity as something to be offered up, unwrapped and enjoyed.

Love me, because love doesn’t exist, and I have tried everything that does.

“ What is important is the story. Because when we are all dust and teeth and kicked-up bits of skin - when we’re dancing with our own skeletons - our words might be all that’s left of us.
