Still can't get over the fact that his wife wrote a biography of his in which she revealed he basically had a microdong, or at any rate a very small one.
Imagine marrying a woman, loving her, only for her to do that to you long after you're dead. No one would have known otherwise, now everyone does.
Moral of the story: never show your weaknesses to a woman. She can and will talk about it.
Also, it's said Pessoa had one too. I think that new Zenith biography mentions it.

>"Malcolm was a very educated man, a brilliant conversationalist and an excellent athlete," Gabrial recalls. "He did have one problem though -- a very small penis. It didn't bother me. I felt we could work around it. But it bothered him. That was something he never really overcame. In his adolescence it had been a problem; his brothers teased him about it, apparently."

Wonder why they divorced. His second wife never married again after he died.

The Consul's brief breakdown in front of his friend's Marian shrine has stuck with me more than maybe any other line I've read.
>Please let me make her happy, deliver me from this dreadful tyranny of self. I have sunk low. Let me sink lower still, that I may know the truth.

Would a woman do that -- just make shit up about someone's dick when there was no possibility of him refuting such a claim? Certainly not. We must #BelieveWomen.
