Note of thanks...to Lori Amy for reading and responding to this text and for encouragement, for talking about desires for fusion and the ironies of words' meanings.  [that whole heterosexual as ironically monolithic...Lori's point]

Note of thanks to Karl Woelz and Marcus Hammann for the generous contribution of their stories, and of course, their priceless friendship.
