Sam Weir is 14 and what we currently refer to as a geek. He is susceptible to the school bullies, mainly because he is a guy who quite simply won't fight back. So, every bully and wannabe tough guy cuts his teeth on these gentle beings with no fear of reprisal. He doesn't long to have sex. Like his fellow geeks, the thought of it fills him with fear. Just having to change clothes in the locker room in front of other guys is the ultimate traumatic experience for Sam, so the thought of stripping down and being intimate with a girl is more than Sam's young mind can even process. He's tormented by bullies constantly, he's judged by other students outside of his group to be weird and immature, he's told by his teachers that he has to grow up and be a man, and he has a hard time coping with any and all aspects of adult life.
