As I was reading Heavy, I realized that Laymon was exposed to such a sexual environment at such a young age. There was a part in the text that mentioned how Laymon saw Dougie and Delaney engaging in oral sex and they demanded that Laymon keep his mouth shut. They bribed him by saying that they’ll teach Laymon how to play chopsticks on the piano. Another event that took place was Laymon and Renata engaging in sexual acts. These events have been a changing point in Laymon’s life. He didn’t believe that any girl would find him attractive due to his weight.
