Back to AtD: WTF? with Yashmeen's f**king?

[bandwraith at aol.com]

I think it's more Jongian than Jungian,
and intentionally so. It's the classic
"Zipless Fuck" he's winking at.

For the Jungians and the feminists (of either sex) on the list...
 
p. 817...'Of course, it was just in that instant that she met up with 
Vlado Clissan"...
And Yashmeen is taken--willingly, ever so and importantly---as in a 
Romance
porn novel......
 
and TRP gives us a little trope joke here..when he has Yashmeen talk 
about her clitoris
being addressed "in an unfamilar way, not rudely, actually quite 
considerately, perhaps
it was the angle...but how could she be thinking of geometry"....."but 
if she didn't keep
some atttachment to that, where would they be taken? Out to sea"...
 
A little Jungian (even Freudian?) trope? The "oceanic feeling" ?....
Better'n sex&death tropes in some way, yes?
