Quote by Julie Burchill

Now the whole dizzying and delirious range of sexual possibilities has been boiled down to that one big, boring, bulimic word. RELATIONSHIP.

Summary

This quote suggests that the vast and diverse realm of sexual experiences and possibilities has been reduced to the single term "relationship." The word is described as "big" to imply its all-encompassing nature, "boring" suggesting a lack of excitement or novelty, and "bulimic" indicating an insatiable or excessive appetite. The quote implies that the term "relationship" fails to capture the breadth and complexity of human sexual experiences, perhaps disregarding the richness and uniqueness of individual connections.
