Horny Fourteen Year Old

As I continue to read, it always keep popping up the fact that Brent can’t control his hormones. I understand his fourteen and he is in the process of puberty, but he’s just so horny I would say. Every girl he meets he has a sexual comment about he can’t keep to himself. Through the book we can see how much he is in love with his nurses especially Tina.

Why does the author show this side of Brent over and over again? I really don’t know, but it funny how he is worried about how he looks, because maybe Tina might think he is ugly. He isn’t worried about his health, but his looks and getting girls to like him.

I think there is much more to looks. Many of us when picking a boyfriend or a girlfriend focus mainly on looks, yet that is totally acceptable because if you don’t know the person the only impression you have is their looks, but you have to go further in and look at their heart and heir personality.

It tends to happen to me that when I meet a hot guy, he is usually an ass. It nice to be good looking, but it’s not that easy to handle. Many guys who think they are hot simply can’t handle it and think they have to be complete ass wholes in order for girls to like them. Yet not me, I can’t stand a guy who is an ass to the girls, he may be the best looking guy, but if he doesn’t know how to treat a girl, I’m not interested. There are many girls who like to be treated like shit, but not me. Therefore I believe that looks do count but it’s a mix of looks heart and personality that make a person. You have to go beyond the superficial world we live in and really value all the traits.

In the book we can see how Brent is very superficial and has the thinking of an immature horny boy. When he goes with Tina to buy ice cream he says, “Tina’s talking to the guy behind the counter. He’s older than me. I bet his thinking about her breasts. He’s probably going to ask her out, and she’ll probably say yes”. He not only shoes what dirty mind he has, but also his low self esteem.
