Emotional connection Quote by Ann Lister
““You’re gay, but you talk about screwing countless women, many at the same time,” Ryan said. “Wouldn’t that make you bi?” “I don’t like labels,” Dagger said. “Sex is sex. I can get off with women, but I prefer being with a man, and the only emotional connections I’ve ever felt are with men. I think that makes me very gay.””
