I should like that you were brutally anally violated by a team of stunningly endowed men. I should further like that through no fault of your own, the stimulation of your prostate should cause you to loudly and obviously climax during said process. This would only naturally cause you to question your masculinity. Which is in point of fact the entire purpose of this exercise. As a final addendum, your mother would be watching on closed circuit television. ---
