his days of sexual frustration and insecurity to his eventual happiness achieved through a new found confidence and sexual
fullfillment and how as a very perceptive and philosophical man he soons grows dissolusioned and unfullfilled wih his aparent "dream"
lifestyle and finds true happiness and fullfillment through love.Strauss is a highly likable character....self aware to those who look at his former lifestyle as sleazy and acessible and down to earth to those who see his lifestyle as unatainable.
