A James Dean Sexual Fantasy
Posted Sep 6, 2010
In “Joshua Tree 1951: A Potrait of James Dean”, Matthew Mishory” (director of
“Love and Testosterone”) certainly has followed his own. Or at least it looks
so: James (actor James Preston) Dean looks like a hungry hunter, a boy’s
predator, rejecting female attention. A posthumous desire we all share, James
Byron Dean will always fill that part of us craving the ultimate rebellion: sex.
He is the devil like it says in the Elvis Presley song “You’re an evil in
disguise”. Maybe because he looks so fragile, unstable, full of teenage angst
and disaffected youth. Death, danger, and again that cigarette burn. Erotic to
the point both women and men’s fantasies can revolve around him, claim him,
while he flirts, flirts, and flirts. Urging us to sublimate our fantasies and
be, do, seek pleasure in anyone and in the fact of being at the centre of
everyone’s desire. As some whisper even of his pastor.
James Dean, quote: “Well, I'm certainly not going through life with one hand
tied behind my back”*. So we can all share the fantasy.

I honestly fail to see sense in Valentine's day if you're a day over 13-years-old. Single people use it as an excuse to complain about being single (all men are jerks and all girls are crazy and whatnot), and couples ignore it or use it as an excuse to invite single friends over for dinner and boast about their love.
