"In actual fact I love women," [Mick] insisted. "I'm absorbed by them and if you ask any of my women friends, not just the ones I've had affairs with, they'll tell you that I'm very nice. I have a lot of sympathy for women."

“Mick wanted for us to be a couple,” Pallenberg told Victor Bockris, “but I just didn't want it. Mick just wanted to walk around and show me off like he did with all his women. Keith needed a more human kind of attention and care and love.”

He loved [Bianca] so much more than he admitted. Mick was a very traditional Englishman when it came to his marriage. He wanted her to stay home and take care of the kids while he did what he pleased.

She even claimed to fantasize about him on the job. “I can't believe how weird and dirty he is,” gushed Hall. “When I have to be sexy in front of the camera, I think of Mick and it always does the trick.”

Bianca, conversely, was not exactly the maternal type. According to Villiers, Bianca "saw less of Jade than Mick did and when she carried her, she'd give her an awkward kind of fireman's lift. Once, she actually dropped Jade down the stairs."

"Mick was very good in bed," said Julia, "a perfectly normal, redblooded male. There was nothing kinky — no whips, knives, or chains. But great sex? Yes!"
