I had to send my first appointment home. No papers, no tryout. That’s the first rule, and it’s the most important one. Especially if you look young. If you say you’re eighteen, and you look like you might be only seventeen or maybe just barely eighteen, you have to prove it. No risks. No chances. I’m gonna see it all anyway. Necessary part of the job. Thousands are gonna see it. So why do they think stuff like skirts and low tops will make a difference? That’s how I learned my lesson. Got out and did...

Does not being a partner to someone bother you? I don’t think I would use the word bother, I say. I’m just not used to it. I know myself mostly as someone’s partner. Are you worried that you won’t like yourself? And you’re adjusting to living as an openly gay man? And everything is all right. Yes, I say. I’m not sure how it happened, but everything is turning out all right. And you’re getting attention. I write my phone number on the forearm of a waiter at a restaurant in the Theater District in Boston&#...

I spent all morning watching a show about going to jail,. Complete with the girl in orange chains. And too-small shirt demanding to know the location of her jaguar,. Car or jungle cat I’m not sure. She said she fired her Glock 17 into the air. And didn’t fire it at the same time,. And I thought about how complicated weapons must be getting these days. One spits on the bullet proof glass,. Waits for the saliva to slide onto the door,. Just look up,. Some proof of the inherent disinterest. The tongue runs ...
