...feminine has affinity for the masculine." As for God being sexless: that is usually the case with pure spirits, I would assume.

...with this show though you won't believe it after reading this review), be it ventured that one can make a fine estimate of a director's involvement when the show is as consistent and tasteful as Mr. Beck's Pajama Game. Either he's first-rate or my mother's name isn't Velvetina...
