I love, love, loved how you juxtaposed Bill's and Leonard's views on sex. In the middle of sex. I wish all comparative essays could be like that. It would have make AP Lang a lot more interesting, that's for damn sure.
I also like that for Leonard, "It's just sex" does not compute. He totally seems like the kind of person that understands that yes, while sex is sometimes just for fun, there is always something deeper hidden somewhere.
Bill's use of the word 'stubbly' also amused me greatly. I can just see him sitting there considering exactly how to describe kissing a man. And choosing 'stubbly' as being the best suited (which I agree with totally). Leonard's reaction is so Leonard, too. I just realised that everyone talks about how Bill's reactions are so Bill. But you've managed a 'Leonard' reaction! That's pretty good. ;D
