508. (ii) This lust is at once love and loathing for the other sex.
They have a love for the other sex because this is the source of variety, and they have a loathing for the other sex because they cast them off once they have made love to them and transfer their lust to other women. This obscene lust blazes up for a new woman, but once it has blazed it becomes cool towards her; and coldness is loathing. We can illustrate how this lust is at once love and loathing for the other sex. Put on the left a group of women whom they have made love to, and on the right a group whom they have not; would they not look on the latter with love, the other with loathing? Yet either group is part of the female sex.
