I thought you were supposed to destroy yourself for art.

Frankenstein as the underdog. Not the monster. The villagers pursuing him are the monster.

Frankenstein is actually an equivalent of how a gay person feels growing up.

Thank god I’m gay! It’s so liberating!

Having been fucked up by my family and community, I’ll never know where my gayness came from, and where it ends and “neurosis” begins. But as a gay person I know I’m a vital element in our civilization.

But even in extreme old age, especially in old age, one shouldn’t forget one’s dick.
