Well, such an interesting week this one. <br />Having a counseling class with thirteen <br />women and the topic of discussion was <br />sex and relationships. I was like a little boy <br />in the candy store. I couldn't believe these <br />mostly younger women confessing that a guy <br />mentioning sex turned them off, yet size and <br />motion of the ocean mattered, and they all <br />wanted my opinion. Why, ladies of my age <br />want to know what is wrong that you are not <br />bringing up the topic! But, I did validate that which <br />I already presumed about women both young <br />and older. Fine, means 'I am right', the discussion <br />is over, and you need to shut up. Of course when <br />a woman says 'That's OK' you are in very dangerous <br />territory. It means she's thinking long and hard about <br />what your punishment is going to be. When she says <br />'Nothing', get ready because discussions beginning <br />with 'Nothing' end in 'Fine'. Non-verbal cues like a <br />sigh, mean you're an idiot and she's wasting her time <br />arguing with you about nothing(See Above) . Well, I am <br />exhausted and these ladies have given me much to <br />think about. Have I really been thinking about sex daily <br />for the last 55 years? No wonder I am so tired! See you <br />next week. Keep the passion flowing, the peas in the pot, <br />and the ham cooking.<br /><br />Barry A.
