Nymphomaniac: Vol. II
1
Can I help you?
I have to go back a bit.
I was 12 years old
and on a school trip in the hills.
Are you making fun of me?
What do you mean?
You have this orgasm,
not only an orgasm,
- ...but a spontaneous orgasm.
- Yes, it was an orgasm,
though the doctor
described it as a...
An epileptic seizure.
And during that orgasm,
you have this vision
of these two women
on each side of you?
Was she holding the veil
with two fingers like this?
What's the matter?
You don't even know who
these women were, do you?
No, but one of them did
look like the Virgin Mary,
now that you mention it.
Well, it wasn't the Virgin
Mary, I can tell you that.
From your description,
it must've been
Valeria Messalina,
the wife of Emperor Claudius,
the most notorious
nymphomaniac in history.
And the other woman,
the one astride the creature,
that was no one else but
riding on Nimrod in
the form of a bull.
Your story is like a...
Blasphemous retelling
of the transfiguration
of Jesus on the mount...
Which is one of the
eastern church's
holiest passages.
It's when the humanity of Christ
is illuminated by the
divine light of eternity.
If anyone else would
have told me that story,
I would've seen it as
a blasphemous joke,
spiced up with a biblical light
emanating from nothing less
than a spontaneous orgasm.
And then later, you lost
your orgasm altogether.
Wagner.
"Das Rheingold,
the descent into Nibelheim."
Was it that bad?
Try to imagine that
in one fell swoop,
you lost all desire to read
and all your love and passion
for books and letters.
I don't even know if
I can imagine that.
This is nothing less
than Zeno's paradox.
You are Achilles
and the tortoise is the orgasm.
Oh, come on.
Because you were giving chase,
you couldn't reach satisfaction.
That's the paradox.
I'm sorry, but it seems as if you're
not taking this very seriously.
I'm telling you about the worst
thing that's happened to me,
that I, at that point
within seconds,
lost all sexual sensation.
My cunt simply went numb!
And immediately we have to hear
about this ridiculous
mathematical problem.
In fact, I'm in doubt whether
you're even listening.
Why do you doubt that?
Whenever I've told other
men about experiences,
episodes in my sex life,
it was easy to see that
I got excited.
Yes, about the mathematical crap,
not about the story.
What kind of a person
are you actually?
I...
You wouldn't know.
No, but I can guess.
Why didn't I get that earlier?
The fact you don't get
excited over my dirty stories
is because you can't
relate to them.
You've never been with a woman.
That's quite accurate.
Not with a man either.
Well yeah, but...
Out of curiosity.
Not out of lust,
as you would think.
I consider myself...
Asexual.
Of course I...
Experimented
with masturbation when
I was a teenager, but...
It didn't do much for me.
So there's nothing sexual about me.
It's not as uncommon
as you would think.
And of course I've...
I've read a lot about
sexual subjects:
"Canterbury tales," "Decameron,"
"thousand and one nights."
You name it
and I've read it with great
interest and enjoyment...
But only literary enjoyment.
But I... but I think
maybe it makes me
a better listener to your story.
I have no preconceived
notions or...
Or preferences.
I'm actually the best judge
And when it comes to
deciding whether you're
a bad human being or not, I'm...
I have no problems with that.
Because I don't look at
