The Vice at U~ is lechery, generally reckoned to be a male vice: it seems far removed from Diana.* But lechery may be a male vice because directed mainly at females (particularly, perhaps, those opposite, i.e. around R~). I am in danger of having it both ways; it is fairly complex.**

On the S~ quadrant, and including M~, there is a feeling of relative sexual abstinence and male orientation## of the Individual.*** On the R~ quadrant there is a similar feeling of relative sexual abstinence**** (perhaps slightly less than S~ – is this due to the nature of the female,# or simply my own subjective point of view?)#* and a female orientation.##

As you move down the on either side towards A~ (Separation, Materiality etc.) you find at J~ a sense of relative sexuality with[in] a female orientation,## and at U~ a sense of relative sexuality within a male orientation## of the Individual. (I must stress that no actual Individual should be characterised on the theoretical basis of these Circles:#** I am engaged in the reverse process.)

If we place the Diana-type somewhere between U~ and M~, probably nearer to M~, we read females behaving in a male type of way and with possibly a hint of sexuality directed as from a male point of view (bearing in mind that the facts of being female may counteract this). (You should see how I stand at 23/5, if this sounds insulting.)
