Hasibrahman What's the meaning of "projec t ing someone's perversion" here? "Projecting" in this context means finding characteristics in others that you yourself have, like a selfish man claiming that his neighbor is selfish or a humorless woman claiming that her best friend has no sense of humor. In this case it's a man who sees his own perversions in others, and probably complains that these others have these perversions, never seeing the same perversions in himself.
