"I mislike to write of sex. It makes me uneasy. Oh, I know one is supposed to be able to treat it like any other subject, but the fact remains that it is not any other subject. It is itself, explosive, variant, provocative and very close to the bone. As to my mind, it should be. Sex has suffered from exposition, not because those who would study it are malicious, but because to make explicit what is by nature implicit is dangerous and misleading. Like the atom, the moment one observes it closely, it shifts so that the thing one conscientiously examines is not what actually is."
