>Hoshino Ryotetsu was the progenitor of homosexuality in our province, and although it can be said that his disciples were many, he instructed each one individually. Edayoshi Saburozaemon was a man who understood the foundation of homosexuality. Once, when accompanying his master to Edo, Ryotetsu asked Saburozaemon, 'What have you understood of homosexuality?' Saburozaemon replied 'It is something that is both pleasant and unpleasant.' Ryotetsu was pleased and said 'You have taken great pains for some time to be able to say such a thing.'

This was written by a literal volcel. He says as much in the text. I'm starting to think no sex is the way bros.
