Brokeback Mountain

I love it.

By imposing the finest emotions unto the roughest mansculine figures, a strong contrast is already in the making. Whereas hetero- love stories depict love with kiss, hug and endless love talk, cowboys express their feelings with fist and blood. Though it is certain that scenes of kissing men would irritate stubborn-heads, who is to say who is right? There was a time when lefthandedness was considered devilish; strong beliefs today could seem ridiculously ridiculous tomorrow.

Lovers risk their lives. I don't know how true that could be; I personally have never been pushed to that extreme. For the sake of the stories, such sacrifice does feel tangible though. As life comes once with every human being, the following quotes sounds reasonable (from the latest issue of National Geographic):

> Love and obsessive-compulsive disorder could have a similar chemical profile.
> Love and mental illness may be difficult to tell apart.
> Don't be a fool. Stay away.

Also a natural explanation/assumption of the endurance of passion, although irrelevant, I can't resist putting it here:

> Relationships frequently break up after four years because that's about how long it takes to raise a child through infancy.
