"It's been said, and I think it's accurate, that my husband was obsessed by sex in general and oral sex in particular."
Now that we have that out of the way I have a news item for you. Men are a different species from you. The fact that we are able to "mingle" is a miracle. Yes we are "obsessed" by sex - 'course it'd help us if your pants were slightly above your crotch ("you" of course is directed to your gender, in general) - but that's probably just me ...
Still the fact remains - yes we are different and our stated second interest is true enough.
The only thing I can say in our defense is that we would gladly die to protect you, work long hours to assure your whims are satisfied and when our motives are questioned luckily there's usually a game on so we can say "Shhhh!".
And yes you're right - I'm a typical male -I was doing the dishes - pots and pans and I asked for help hand drying ... and was accused of manipulating the situation ... think I'll just go back online - sorry to unload on you - but I feel better already ... ;-) Too many smileys? Tough. Deal with them. ;-)
Don't worry - we've been married 25 years +. I think we'll weather tonight. ;-)
I hate to break it to you, Pal, but I have a Y chromosome.
