Quote from this book

"Donald is now forty years old, over six feet tall, his face running to jowl and his abdomen a little paunchy. He is rather loosely put together, heavy and awkward in his movements, especially those of his hands. His eyes are not clear, he lisps and there is a good deal of mouthing of his words.

When first interviewed Donald had been drinking. He seemed insecure and in some respects was defiant in his attitude. He said that he wanted the truth known and not just the morbid. He expressed the belief that the homosexuality of the ancient Greeks was coming back.

Some of his friends consider him a poseur who is depnding on his family name and upon his income for merit and popularity. Some feel that he is a weakling who is easily swayed. In any case he is honest in the acknowledgement of his tendencies and in his effort to adapt them to the decrees of the society in which he finds himself."

from "Bisexual Cases", p17
