Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker asks someone attracted to women whether they constantly look at their own naked reflection. The question confuses attraction to other people with attraction to oneself. Its crude premise turns sexual orientation into an intrusive joke about vanity, without offering any sound account of desire.
