Casual Sex? (1988)

Peter Dvorsky: Matthew

Quotes 

• [Melissa's dream.] 

  Matthew : I lied. I was extremely attracted to you. I just didn't want you to see my unusually small penis.

• [Attempting seduction.] 

  Matthew : Melissa, did you know that women experience 63% more heightened sensitivity during the arousal phase than during climax itself?

  Melissa : Really? I like all the phases.

• [Several minutes into the attempted seduction.] 

  Melissa : What's the matter?

  Matthew : We have a problem.

  Melissa : Well, what is it?

  Matthew : I can't. I'm sorry.

  Melissa : Is it me?

  Matthew : No no no, it's not you. It's me. I'm not attracted to you.

  Melissa : Oh.

  Matthew : Now, I don't want you to take this as a rejection, but as an acceptance between two people whose needs are profoundly incompatible. And you're not alone. I devote an entire chapter to this in my book.

• Matthew : Melissa, you're not leaving us, are you? Melissa, seeking escape from a challenging environment points to potentially very serious personality deficits. You really ought to consider analysis--

  [with a small scream she pushes him into the swimming pool] 

  Matthew : Bitch!

• Melissa : You know, Matthew's a psychologist. I just love therapy. I think everyone should be in therapy.

  Matthew : That would be good for me. Actually, I'm here to do reseach for a book I'm writing, on the psycho-sexual tendencies of pre-menopausal females.

  Vinny : Yeah, me too.
