Summary

In this quote, the term "great actors" refers to those who possess a certain aura of brilliance and radiance when performing. They have the ability to captivate and lead the audience like conductors leading an orchestra.

Biological possibility and desire are not the same as biolog

Biological possibility and desire are not the same as biological need. Women have childbearing equipment. For them to choose not to use the equipment is no more blocking what is instinctive than it is for a man who, muscles or no, chooses not to be a weightlifter.
