Holden's attitude towards sex

Holden's views on sex are very confusing. He is very interested in it and calls himself a "sex maniac" but also it seems he knows ver little about it and even admits he just doesn't understand it at all. He clearly wants some action because he says he is "horny" and I think he is a little desperate because even calls up a girl, in the middle of the night, hoping he may have a chance with her.

First Chapter Review

Although the first chapter doesn't give away much about the main characters personality or lifestyle, I think that "The Catcher In The Rye" doesn't give you very good first impression of him. He is not the sort of person that you immediately like. He seems like a very negative and angry person and doesn't like to talk about his past. I am keen to read on and find out why this is because it seems very interesting.
