1. Jean was hit on...
by a gay guy (rouseau's confessions maybe first book in literature to feature a description of a climax) when he was 20....he was so shocked, he just lost his tongue (haha)
he also I believe, was the first person to flasher (with fucking raincoat and all etc) a buncha milkmaids...the nearby uncle chased and caught Jean but let him go when he saw Jean was a 'gentleman' (this actually happened!) Rouseau was 'embarrassed' when the 2 met in the street over next year Jean lived in that town...
I couldn't believe it reading it!
I'm sorry this is abit off topic Dem since Birth but ....
:-)

2. I Never Read Confessions...
Didn't he write Emielle (sp) about the raising of a child....


I read the Social Contract and On The Origins of Inequality.
