I'll buy that maybe he's hinting that men like Zoyd, whose best shot at
non-domineering relationships somehow misses the hoop
(maybe distracted by all those shoes squeaking on the floor)
and who see the person to whom they directed the not-Mesmeric-enough passes
apparently looking in other guys for that quality they deliberately excluded,
will occasionally wonder if that isn't the key...but they can't
bring themselves to regress that much...
