"When Dr. Samuel Johnson had completed the first real dictionary of the English language, he was visited by a delegation of rescpectable old ladies who wished to congratulate him for not including any indecent words. [He responded that] he was interested to see that the ladies had been looking them up."
when someone asked why, this was the answer: "If a heterosexual adult uses a sex toy they WILL turn gay, become or get someone pregant solely to have abortions, develop an obsession with flag burning and then Bible burning, and then join a union."
edit: as far as I know, Alabama, Mississippi, Texas and Georgia all have anti-dildo laws on the books, and Tennessee may be next.
-- Fuck if I know. -- Besides fat, stinky and into D&D? -- sex is for fags -- dropped at birth -- they're socially retarded? -- I dunno, but I'm a hot nerdy girl who has had little trouble getting sex since age 16. -- dont make fun of the less fortunate -- Really? Who? -- HOTT -- they never went to college? -- Mormons? oh wait, those marry younger than 25, for teh sex. -- they haven't had sex yet -- lying -- Religious nuts, or too absorbed in something else, or more likely trying way too hard and failing as a result? -- Lack of opportunity or religious reasons (sometimes the later is a coverup for the former) -- Christian or um, shy. I hate the "I haven't found the right person yet" excuse. There is no right person to lose your virginity to. You won't be with them forever and that's that so either wait for marriage or don't give me that line. [emph added] -- complexes and neuroses. -- Who needs dick when you've got Jesus? -- They're ugly. -- People who justify never getting laid with shallow moral beliefs? -- Poor self esteem, hobbies that are not condusive to sex... -- From experience, I have dated people who are really socially retarded. They were awful people who should have stayed celibate for life and spared everyone else. -- they're closet cases [this person is not gay] -- gurls are intimidating...! -- Too busy w/ RPGs, the Internet, all night LAN sessions, etc... -- Closet homosexuals. [this person is] -- there's always a star trek episode on somewhere -- Either hard core christians, losers, or lost their penis in horrible accidents. Girls probably have to be very shy. Girls, unlike guys can always find sex... just not always with who they want.
feel free to elaborate in the comments. Or don't. I will post the answers later anonymously.
edit: Among adult males 25-44 years of age, 97 percent have had sexual contact with an opposite-sex partner in their lives; 97 percent have had vaginal intercourse, 90 percent have had oral sex with a female, and 40 percent, anal sex with a female. Among women, the proportions who have had sexual contact with an opposite-sex partner were similar. from here
how can you bear not to touch me how can you stand it when you don't have your hands on me how do you manage to keep my clothes on how do you deny your lust?
that fire in me pulls you near your hands melt like ice on my back you kiss my face, my neck, my hair, my ears i fall facedown onto the floor and you no longer deny your lust
I saw Closer last night and really enjoyed it. I thought it was an excellent study of archetypes: the nebbish who betrays every woman he loves in the cause of his own ego; the typical brute who is true to society's mores; the woman who needs a man to support her but doesn't realize her own strength. Mainly, of course, I was astonished at the intensity of Clive Owen actually distracting me from my former ideal specimen of maleness, Jude Law.
I've liked Clive Owen ever since seeing Croupier all those years ago, but in almost everything I've seen him in, he's not really cast against type. Whereas in this movie he was, but you could hardly tell. Reading the script or seeing the play would make it clearer, but come on, doctors don't look like that. Especially not dermatologists. They are not big thugs with broken noses and unruly hair who don't shave every day. They are true to their girlfriends and wives, maybe stray once or twice, and play the game straight-up. I mean, you don't expect a guy who looks like that to fit so seamlessly into the role, but he did, so well. And such a wonderful counterpoint to Law's fey prettiness and lack of honor.
Perhaps this is yet another signal of men being men again. Not that I'm so anti-metrosexuality, but this, Deadwood, and Sin City seems to be marking a trend.
I get really really mad about people who get pregnant or STDs that are so, so, easily avoidable. I mean, I guess I'm more afraid of getting pregnant than of STDs, but I'm sufficiently afraid that I can count on one hand the number of men I've not used condoms with. So sure, I feel bad for people when I hear about it, but at the same time there's always the undercurrent of HOW CAN YOU BE SO STUPID? Especially because, hello! AIDS is still pretty much a death sentence. There's all kinds of ways to reduce your risk factor for STDs, but this one is still the most effective. No one LIKES condoms, but I bet you like them better then sores on your genitals.
