Skating takes up 70 percent of my time, school about 25 percent. Having fun and talking to my friends, 5 percent. It's hard. I envy other kids a lot of things, but I get a guilt trip when I'm not training. ↗

In high school I had sex with girls quite a few times. They were straight women who I convinced to jump in the sack with me. ↗
