An Inclusive Litany

2/1/90

In the Utne Reader, November/December, 1989, Jon Tevlin reports from a seminar conducted by Dr. Shepherd Bliss, who helps men recover their lost male essence by, among other means, "joining the world of the four-leggeds":
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Shepherd coming toward me, head down, tufts of white hair ringing a bald spot.... Meanwhile I felt a slight presence at my rear, and turned to see a man beginning to sniff my buttocks. "Woof!" he said.

[Ed.: I presume the name "Shepherd" is just a coincidence.]
