When and how did you know?

Heh. Thanks for stirring an old and nearly forgotten memory.

Back in those "hip" days of the late '60's and early '70s (and the nascent rumbligs of more "politically correct" speak), my school floated the proposed use of "gender-neutral" pronouns as alternative to "he/she" (to be called "co"), and "his/hers or theirs" (to be called "cos"). This rather awkward "advance" of sociological nomenclature - needless to say - didn't get much traction either in or out of the classroom...and withered as quickly as other whimsical fads of the day.

It's not difficult to understand why, when you compare the two sentences:

Gender specified:
"Last year, John and Mary competed for election to senior class president. He campaigned that his platform would better accomodate seniors and their class' interests. She campainged that her platform would better serve the interests of all students. He won the election by a clear majority."

John wins! Woo-hoo!

Gender "neutral":
"Last year, John and Mary competed for election to senior class president. Co campaigned that cos platform would better accomodate seniors and cos class' interests. Co campainged that cos platform would better serve the interests of all students. Co won the election by a clear majority."

So who won the election?

Obviously...the "gender specific" luddites. ;-)

I've known I was only attracted to girls/women at a very early age. The soft, gentle curves... The way they walk... Think I've been on the road to long, need to get home!

The soft, gentle curves... The way they walk...

Not to mention their voices, their sighs, their silences. I find it's the little things like what you mention that I miss most about not having any women around me on a daily basis these days. Can you rent a woman for a day or so?

If you live in, or just visit Nevada, you can "rent" a woman either by the quarter hour, or all day long if you have the funds - and it's entirely legal!

In reflection...

LOL...You went off on one there man.

Women smell different; have wonderful soft places and pieces to investigate, indulge, and appreciate; and they make cooing, pleasing, and squealing sounds that men can never replicate or duplicate.

I can't imagine what it must be like to be a male homosexual. I can't imagine why most women would be attracted to smelly, hairy, hard muscled, uninteresting male physiques.

I would wager my mother that every straight guy has pondered this impenetrable mystery at some stage.

I can remember standing at the corner, waiting for my bus when I was in kindergarten and I had the biggest crush on a little blonde boy named Jeffy. I just thought he was so great and I remember trying to kiss him, alot...to which he would always run away.

Funny thing is, I married a Jeff! :sarcastic
