A new syndrome to worry about:
David Syndrome. I'm pretty sure it's not contagious. "[Psychoanalyst Graziella] Magherini has interviewed gallery visitors who are fixated with and disturbed by the physical attributes of David, considered by art critics to be a vision of male perfection.... [They exibit] a range of strong emotions which go from enchantment, through vexation, aggression, a vandalistic impulse, right through to panic attacks"
"There's a great force, an impulse of an erotic and sexual nature, not just in women, but even more so in men. Men of 35-40 years of age who are attracted by the extraordinary masculine beauty and at the same time are also agitated."
"In both syndromes, a large proportion of those affected are Americans."
--Not secure in their masculinity?
