Beards can protect you from being gay

Ta Losty. (throws away half a ham sandwich)

What? I thought it was hot.

It was.

Vorls, I honestly think you should write a comedic book about your exploits. Changing names, of course. But I'd buy it.

I'd rather a sitcom. The catch is he lives with 3 beautiful harlots!

I don't take off points if I think a given man could potentially grow only a pathetic and wan attempt at some facial plumage, but I do take off points when they actually demonstrate their failings in this category.

I cannot grow a proper beard to save my life.

I have allowed it to grow for months to no avail.  All I can accomplish is a thick peach fuzz that does not even connect as a whole to make a full beard.  I cannot even do a proper five o'clock shadow.

I have hair in abundance on my arms, legs, and pubic area.  I cannot grow hair on my chest, but I have hair around my nipples and stomach area.

I'm a weird monkey.

In the big scheme of things, your characteristics do not matter.  Whatever you have going on, I can guaranty there is someone out there looking for it.  And frequently, opposites attract, so someone with a whole bunch of whatever you're looking for is going to be looking for what you have in abundance or abeyance as the case may be.


LOL, one of the more disappointing experiences I've had was going home with this massive hairy slab of a man dressed all in leather and when we got to his place and got going at it, I realized conceptually for him, the leather gear was equivalent to cross dressing.  He might as well have been wearing a little black cocktail dress and heels . . . . 


. . .  and maybe on other days of the week he does.

I suppose that's where being versatile comes in handy.

I suppose that's where being versatile comes in handy.

Versatility can be quite the plus in regards to what you do, what you're attracted to, and what they are attracted to.

Of the 3 men I've fallen in love with, one partially looks plausibly like my 'ideal' excepting being too skinny, another while sufficiently 'slab like' wasn't hairy at all and was obviously truly madly deeply in love with his wife, and the third was Brian, and damn, his scorecard would be a sad thing to rate him with.  Way way too skinny, not hairy, 4 or 5 years younger than me (before and after him that is  unprecedented for me) and I even met his mother* before I met Brian, Jesus, how many deal killers does that make ??

And not one of those deal killers made a bit of difference almost from the instant I met him.




* in the 70s, that was a 'thing'.  I've always found it disquieting, upsetting, uncomfortable and nearly unbearable being around moms of my peers/partners.  There are a few exceptions, but they are few and far between.  Part of the 'thing' thing is in the years before PFLAG 'moms', or at least the subset of them that realized if their sons had gay friends (or worse) they weren't ever going to have grandkids and therefore heaped much scorn and vitriol on those gay friends whenever possible. Moms were worse than dads, actually.  Fathers were mortified and terrified to be around us, but  moms could be and were aggressive and vile.  (The 'fish thing' comes form that era)  Moms were either neutral (and scarce if they were) or dangerous, scary people to avoid.  They HATED us.  At least until they could make friends of each other at PFLAG meetings, LOL !

BTW, Brian's mom was RELENTLESSLY nice from the get go.

I honestly think I was only ever supposed to love one guy, and I never did.

Complications with my life at the time prevented me from being able to be with him, even though we lived only a twenty minute drive apart.

Ironically, he was diagnosed with HIV. I only learned that years later. It is fortunate I never engaged in sex with him.

Still, the connection I experienced with him I never again experienced with another guy.

I cannot explain it.

So basically orthodox priests are bashing on Catholic priests and they show no response... pussies.

One day my former religion teacher brought us a book written by a monk.
I took a look in the book and read a passage that said that women shouldn't wear make-up, because that's not the way god made them.
Guess what, my teacher, a female, wore make-up that exact same day!
To be fair, she didn't talk about that passage at all, but she still brought a book that had that passage.
Christians can be such hypocrites (not all of them, of course).

What about women?

That makeup's gonna get on the pillowcases anyway.
