A Girl Thing (2001 TV Movie)

Brian Kerwin: Gary Tucker

Quotes 

• Gary Tucker : I don't know why I had sex with Tipper Gore.

  Dr. Beth Noonan : Gary, you dream about having sex with everyone. It's why you're here. It's one of your problems. Why should it be so strange to dream about Tipper Gore?

  Gary Tucker : Well, I'd like to think I had some standards.

  Dr. Beth Noonan : Tipper Gore is a very attractive woman.

  Gary Tucker : She's not my type.

  Dr. Beth Noonan : Oh. So being a sex addict does not preclude being sexually discriminating?

  Gary Tucker : No, er... yes, absolutely. I mean, when I see people on the street, I only undress those that I find attractive. Now granted, on a street of fifty we're talking maybe thirty-five, but I'm working on that. I just can't help it... I... I don't know why I love sex. I love genitalia. I especially love genitalia, and the tongue. The tongue... hoo, what can you say about that? It's miraculous. It's God's greatest contribution to mankind, if you ask me.

  Dr. Beth Noonan : Gary, do you think, maybe just part of the day, you could think about other things?

  Gary Tucker : I do. Breasts. And that... that fold of skin at the top of the thigh.

  Dr. Beth Noonan : That's not what I meant.

  Gary Tucker : Well, I know, I know. I just can't help it, I jus... that's why I'm thin - I forget to eat. I jus... I would like to feel bad about it, but I can't. Sex is good. Even with myself. Do you masturbate, Dr. Noonan?

  Dr. Beth Noonan : Ab... ab... uh-uh.

  Gary Tucker : I'm sorry, I get carried away.

  Dr. Beth Noonan : Gary, do you think, maybe, for just twenty-four hours you could not have sex? Could you do that?

  Gary Tucker : No.

  Dr. Beth Noonan : [into tape recorder]  Gary Tucker... I don't know what to say.
