Saw the Hand Holdin'.

--- Quote ---The Story Ennis had an erection of his own the first night in the tent and the evidence of the "clear slick" was also proof that he was sexually attracted to Jack. In the book, before Jack and Ennis had sex, they had deepened intimacy before Ennis had his left hand siezed by Jack to be put on Jack's erection.

Excellent point Joe Allen, Ennis had to have been seriously aroused for "clear slick" to have even present to assist him with his lubrication. That's a point I haven't heard anyone make in along time. Also you are correct. Anne P tells us they shared the Bedroll and the intimacy deepened considerably....I can very well imagine it did since it had been obvious for sometime they were attracted to each other. Nature simply took it course and the alcohol had removed enough Ennis's inhibitions for him to act on nature.

--- Quote from: Joe Allen Doty on May 18, 2006, 02:47:14 am ---If a man says, "I'm not homosexual, but I am sexually attracted to you" to another man, he is unwittingly admitting that he is at least a bisexual.
Those men who are exclusively heterosexual in their sexual orientation do not experience below-the-belt, behind-the-pubic-bone, in-the-area-of-the-prostated physiological sexual attraction feelings directed toward another man. The Story Ennis had an erection of his own the first night in the tent and the evidence of the "clear slick" was also proof that he was sexually attracted to Jack. In the book, before Jack and Ennis had sex, they had deepened intimacy before Ennis had his left hand siezed by Jack to be put on Jack's erection.

This is very interesting JAD, I missed the clear slick in my first read of the book. I was reading it again today though, and I want to ask you a question about the "deepened intimacy" sequence in the book. You've mentioned a couple of times that there was deepened intimacy before they had sex, and I think you mean that there was a level of intimacy between the time Ennis enters the tent but before the sex. Say, stolen glances or an "accidental" brush of a leg? When I read this sequence again today I asked myself was AP really suggesting that something else happened here to deepen the intimacy (something that was not filmed), or did the "deepened intimacy" simply refer to the sex itself? Read it again and tell me what you think/mean by deepened intimacy.

Ennis is in fact looking down to avoid Jack's mouth, and Jack is looking at his mouth, whiCh he'd like to kiss, but isn't gping to msakeTOO a big deal out of just now. It is Jack who grabs Ennis's hand, twiCe. FiRst. his wrist (you can clearly see the bluie cuff on the grabbing hand), and then, right before his head collapses on the tent foor, he brings his other hand across his body, and grabs the back of Ennis's hand with that hand as well. Ennis never grabs a hand. You might make out a case for the first grab being for balance, but--the second one?
I have spoken!

Wow Julie, assertive-much! :o

Something tells me Ennis is reaching down for Jack's hand while they're going at it..
Jack may grab Ennis's hand after the pounding, but Ennis reaches down after he puts lil Ennis - ahem - in.
