I hear you. The ability to speak intelligibly is the first thing to go, too!

[I don’t know how macho I am, but I have met women who were just so beautiful and sensual that my brain seemed to turn to mush.]

STORY TIME! :o)

Years ago, I was a concrete finisher (construction). We did some high end fancy concrete pool decks for a landscaper and pool company. On one particularly hot afternoon, we had finished placing the concrete and were taking a break in the shade of the residence garage waiting for the concrete to set up. On the day we were doing this work, the owner had a rather large family get together. Many cars and a lot of people going in and out. Apparently one of the family's children was a Pacemate (Pacer cheerleader). As we relaxed in the shade of the garage, waiting for the concrete to set up for finishing, the Pacemate, fresh from a charity event and in uniform, casually but directly asked me, "How long until it gets hard?" Like a scene from a movie, I froze in an apparent jaw dropping, drooling sweat. A co-worker had to explain that they could walk on it the next day but not to put any furniture on it for a week.

I forgot what we were negotiating about.

Sure, take as much money as you want.

"I need a macho kinda man...I have NO PATIENCE for men not willing to go toe-to-toe with me.... "

I will go toe to toe with any beautiful women to pound out a deal and will drive for the best deal in other positions as well ;-)

oooooh! Now I like that!!!

maybe when a man cannot go toe-to-toe with me intellectually, I will just tell myself that her really is brilliant...

it is just my stunning sexuality that disarms him....

Yeah- I think I can live with that...

;-D

Well that's good news, b/c I always see interesting stuff in there, but I assumed since the online subscriptions are so expensive, they wouldn't allow it.

A woman is imbued with countless charms, unfortunately reason is not one of them.

What a silly statement. She was expressing a preference not doing algebra

BTW You'll be a lot happier if you don't try to always understand the "mystery" of women.

Just enjoy the difference

;>)

Whatever happened to "would you like to come up to my room and look at my etchings?"

I tried it, but she wasn't too impressed with my William Tell rendition.

I am getting the distinct impression that you are rather aroused by this thread. You like attention. You need attention. You want to be sought after. You want to be worshiped. You want to be wined, dined and ..........

(This is a family channel)

;o)

Shocking! Is this why guys go to strip clubs, pay ridiculous prices for drinks, throw money at the girls, and leave wondering ...

"She's so fine,

There's no tellin' where the

Money went!"

Although now that I follow your link, it seems I can access all the articles without logging in. Maybe I am thinking about 'Science' magazine.

Handling a bra usually gets my attention.

You don't think they were talking about an EMPTY bra, do you?

Ring finger length as a measure of testosterone? Give me a break.

Yeah, right? Some guys waste all their testosterone growing their ring fingers.

Well, at least you can buy a bra to make your"self" appear a certian way, and then get mad at every man who notices. Until, that is, the "right" man looks. Us guys don't get worked up about getting checked out, unless it's another "dude".

Hehehe, if true, be wary of business negotiations done in a strip club...someone attempting to hustle you.
