Groaning around the ball gag counts.

I didn't request the teabag. She offered.

I think if he was saying that TO feels like a woman, then TO would know how to deal with the situation. I think what Atticus is saying is that TO is not like a woman because he hasn't picked up the tools to deal with sexual fear during his life.

Yes, but the theory fails because its conditioned on the assumption that men cannot understand "sexual fear". If that were the case, then ALL men, not just TO, would react in a homophobic fashion when interacting with gay men.

Whiff. That would be her groaning around a ball (or two), not you. And we all know she's a huge flirt.

I'm having trouble following this conversation. Can someone please diagram it for us slow folk?

Nortmally I'd use this to conclude that I probably shouldn't go out of my way to actually MEET Sebby, as he probably wouldn't be that impressed. Then I realize that given the above, it'd probably be an impossibility even if I tried, as my wearing the improper suit would mark me from about 100 yards away, to say nothing of the shoes.

Oy veh... this shit again. There's a reason this post was ignored.

I'll meet you anytime, Bernaise, and you'll find me utterly charming in the flesh. Ask AdL or MR.

If you pick up the tab I promise I'll act impressed.

I am aware of the boobs in my surroundings.

That's just common sense.

They are as bad as racoons. Trust me, you do NOT want them hanging around your house.

I hear a .22 does the trick. You can use cats to kill the babies after you're done with the parents.

They're fat little furbags that sit up and look around like humans. I dig the little bastards and they're great entertainment for the cats, who go nuts watching them. I can't help it - I'd love to just grab one like a rugby ball and squeeze the little fucker.

I'll let you know how the rabies shots go.

This whole idea could only apply to the situation being discussed if that baseball player only expressed his antigayish reservations after the other, purportedly gay, guy leered at him or came on to him in the locker room. Unless you feel those same feelings of unease when in the company of ANY person of the opposite sex, no matter how unsexual they are acting, your hypo fails.

I wasn't talking about the baseball guy (I didn't really follow that part of the conversation). I was just speaking generally about why many men are so freaked out at being hit on by another guy. I think the "unwanted sexual attention" analogy works, although I'm not saying there aren't other things going on when a straight guy gets all bent out of shape when another dude checks him out (or whatever).

I'm still trying to figure out where I can buy the bad-ass Polar HRM dtb was posting about. REI, no. If anyone knows, please tell me.

I told you -- they're not available in stores yet. I'm just special.

Why are you making this shit seem so fucking forced? Flirt or fuck, but entertain me. Let me be in on the fantasy that this is interesting. Otherwise, I'll just watch the fight and three baseball games over your head while you balance your checkbook (or, more likely, look to score more blow) as you grind on my friend's dick.

Have you tried fucking Coltrane? Of course it's fucking forced.

But I heard his roommate just got back from Peru....

Polar's website suggests they were available as of June or July. It is now August. The AVERAGE consumer trying in August to buy a product from the AVERAGE manufacturer offering that product in June or July will be able to buy it 83.4% of the time.

Perhaps it works as simple as this...

If an attractive person flirts with you, you probably feel good about it, whether you're a man or woman. If an unattractive/scary/creepy person flirts with you, you don't feel good about it. You usually think "Huh, what the fuck is he/she thinking?" or "Gross". To a man who is not attracted to men - or can't look at the bright side of these things like me - a man hitting on him is tantamount to a nasty/creepy chick hitting on him. It makes you wonder what kind of vibe you're giving off and makes you wonder how attractive you are. Now, take a super macho fucker like TO and add the element of gay male attention to the mix and you've got a high testoserone cat asking himself "What the fuck does this man think he's going to get from me?" and also thinking "Do I look fucking gay? I'm not fucking gay!!!" And then he does what he usually does in confrontational situations - flip out a bit.

I have never met any woman who was frightened by an attractive guy hitting on her in a polite manner. My guess is a lot of women who feel victimized by leering, whistling workmen are as grossed out at the level of what's leering at them as they are afraid. They're effectively ticked that guys who aren't "in their league" are thinking about fucking them.

Sorry, Florence. You're right, I'm not being very direct. Let me try again.

You're being a twit. Stop it.

It's inane, the only difference from Penske being fewer personas, and from Hank being not drinking before noon.

But I get it. It's your horse, and you can feel free to ride the goddamn thing and have her perform her trick until she finally falls from exhaustion. And in the meantime, if people complain about consistency or otherwise express irritation at the endless pop psychology, you have the luxury of deciding not to worry about it. As a result, there will be few hobgoblins to trouble your peaceful mind.

(As an aside, I'm sure you're dazzling. I don't really care, but I'm sure you are.)

Oh it'll come out of your hair. Just jump in the shower and quit complaining.
