Quote by William S. Burroughs

Admittedly, a homosexual can be conditioned to react sexually to a woman, or to an old boot for that matter. In fact, both homo -- and heterosexual experimental subjects have been conditioned to react sexually to an old boot, and you can save a lot of money that way.


Admittedly, a homosexual can be conditioned to react sexuall

Summary

This quote intends to highlight the idea that conditioning or manipulating someone's sexual preferences, including those of individuals with different sexual orientations, is theoretically possible. The mention of homosexuality suggests that even individuals who are attracted to the same gender can be conditioned to develop sexual interest in someone of the opposite gender. The reference to an "old boot" signifies that this conditioning can be done with practically anyone or anything, emphasizing that it is a matter of conditioning rather than innate sexual orientation. The comment about saving money mocks the notion of attempting such experiments, depicting it as pointless or absurd.
