Quote #7
I think it would be much easier to be a virgin, marry someone and then find out what life is all about. I wonder how it will be for me? It might be great because I'm practically a virgin in the sense that I've never had sex except when I've been stoned and I'm sure without drugs I'll be scared out of my mind. (60.3)
It's amazing how some people can warp the definition of virgin to suit their purposes. That said, Alice kind of has a point: She's always had drugs acting as a social lubricant, so doing the horizontal tango while sober will most definitely be something new and different.
Quote #8
I could tell them a thing or two, because I imagine that sex without drugs isn't even the same thing as the mad, forever wonder of it when you're really way out there. (68.2)
Oh, so now she's all high and mighty about sex being way better when you're high… but she hasn't had sex when she wasn't high, so how does she know which one is better?
Quote #9
Another day, another blow job. (165)
This is a pretty different attitude than the one Alice has at the beginning of the book, huh? Her experiences have desensitized her to just about everything, so now sex is no longer some magical experience, it's merely a tool to be utilized so she can get more drugs.
