Less

Enemy

Over dinner a friend said: "Love is the enemy of desire."
She added: "I'd never want to have a child with a man I love. I prefer to have a child with a friend. The more you become a mother the less you become a woman."
"Are you referring to the classic myth of the woman as mother or as prostitute?"
"Not necessarily," she said. "Would you like to have some salmon?'
