Jane have you ever read Parade’s End
By Ford Madox Ford
I cannot say that I have
At one stage Tietjens notes that one has to go to bed
With a woman to be able to talk to her
That sounds like shit to me Stan
Maybe but it does say that to be friends with a woman
You have not slept with is almost impossible
As there is too much unspoken in the air
Did you ever put this into practice
Before meeting me
No
After meeting me
Yes every Tuesday
Do I visit the British Museum
Or am I cultivating a friendship
Stan
Have you ever been unfaithful to me
Why do you want an answer to that question
Have you
You sound like a virgin
Before she opens her legs
I will not answer that question because it insults me
Have you
Have I what
Climbed other skyscrapers
No I am not a slut
I am happy with you
You have answered your own question
And that is my answer also
Stan & Jane
