when you're a specialty item, as i am, you gotta get to the point with a provisionally enthusiastic woman before her friend has a chance to imprint upon her consciousness the notion that normal women wouldn't go for this particular item (namely me).

after the conformity conference (it's like when scientology sends out operatives to keep people like katie holmes thinking right), there's almost nothing you can do.

even at subsequent encounters, usually.

it's very frustrating.
