Exactly.

While we're on the subject of skin products, can someone recommend a good lube? The skin on my dick's getting a little raw.

Do you pronounce ballet "bal - ette" (like ballot, but with reverse syllabic emphasis)?

I think of those who say "val-ette" and "fill-ett" as people who are trying to pretend as if they're from England.

Many people like the astroglide. If this is for anal use, you should probably go by a drugstore in a gay area of town and pick up something with more heft/staying power.

Someone on here was yapping about the KY warming, but I'm not sure whether it was shock/horror at its existence, or something else. I have not tried it.

You can only order the fill-ette mig-non after the horsedoovers.

I was not the one yapping about the KY Warming stuff, but I can say that I have tried it. And that I like it. I wouldn't want to use it all the time, but it's a nice variation.

Do you need a special BDD lube for those exceptional days or are you looking for an everyday lube?

I can't remember ever using a lube. Not even the KY warming lube, which intrigued me. Is that odd?

No, but ballet was never anglicized in English. Some words aren't, and some were adopted twice and exist in anglicized and non-anglicized forms (saloon and salon being the classic examples).

Admittedly, I didn't realize fillet had been anglicized before it was bastardized until I was in England.

BR(someone asked about the dog/log thing: some people pronounce dog "dog" or "dawg" and log "lahg"; some pronounce both with an "ah" vowel, which used to be the common pronunciation in the US; the now common distinction between the vowel in "dog" and the vowel in "card" reflects a fairly recent move of older US usage toward English RP, and not all "o" words have caught up)C

In some circles they take it even further and call them "horses ovaries." Which probably could be a horsedoovers.
