Girls is an erotic spree, a journey into the most forbidden corners of male desire, a story about men who have been rendered numb by their power, who have sacrificed everything for success, who have lost their souls and can find meaning only by living vicariously, obsessively through young women. These are the men who wear a ring that says "Peace" or "Dream More" (which she gave them). But they are not at peace; the ring won't work. These are the men who left their safe lives, their wives; lust sets them free/is like a prison. They have replaced their old dreams with dreams of the girls they yearn for. Because the wide-eyed wonder of youth gives them back a taste of what they've lost.
