Category: Movie Role: Dede Truitt From: The Opposite of Sex

Seems like everybody’s having sex but me. Good for them. It’s not that I’m against sex. I mean, it was clever of God or evolution or whatever to hook the survival of the species to it because we’re gonna screw around no what. It was a smarter thing to pick than say… the instinct to share your toys or return phone calls. We’d have died out like eons ago. But on the minus side, god… all the *attachment* that goes with it. It’s like this net. Sex always ends in kids or disease, or like, you know, relationships. That’s exactly what I don’t want. I want the opposite of all that. Because it’s not worth it, not really, is it? When you think about it? OK, so maybe I’m wrong. Maybe it’s not all shit. Maybe… God damn it. I thought the whole idea was I know what happens next. I’ll tell you one thing… I’m not gonna go back to Bill’s house and be this big changed person for you. I told you right off I don’t grow a heart of gold. And if I do, which is, like, so unlikely, give me a break and don’t make me do it in front of you. Come on, guys, go, okay? Go! I’ll give you this much, though: I never was the same again after that summer.

I don’t know what it is but there’s something that goes on between women. You men know that because it’s the same for you. I’m not saying one sex is better then the other. I’m just saying, like speaks to like. Love or whatever doesn’t always keep. So you found out what does, if you’re lucky. … You know what’s weird? You never know the last time you sleep with somebody it’s the last time. You’re thinking: “Oh, we got problems, we got work to do,” you know, but you never think… and then you break up and a month later you look back and you go: “Oh, that was it.” That Tuesday or Friday or whenever, and you wished you paid attention because it was the last time… Well.
