Now I see where you're headed. Hm. You're right, it is tough. I'm
getting mystic hermaphrodite vibes, but that's not quite right.
Gay men teaching a straight man how to win over straight women? There's
some paradox mojo. And why do they always run to and from their
queermobile?
Maybe there's some old-school Hermes/Mercury action going on.
(Messengers of fashion, speeding from one recipient to the next.... I
imagine the answer is "no", but do any of them wear Nikes?)
This is all blindingly obvious to someone on the list....
