Well you were to taught that men are beneath you.

I'm sure that some women don't mind their men beneath them. Not that I would mind, either. :-)

Homeo, damn you better get to the doc....my virility didn't wane till after 40. LOL

Mack...a woman wanting security if she is planning on having a family is practical but it's not a cure all. I had plenty of cash with my ex and she still wasn't happy then ....she's still not with number 3 and he is a gazillionaire. Careful.

On virility and prudishness. I'm 44, wife #2 is a lovely 8 years my junior and wonderful. I have 3 children(11, 12 and 20 months) with one newly discovered on the way. I had a very hedonisitc life till around 33 or so...really maybe later than that...shhh!!! but around late 30s...it all started coming together. It's all about family for me. With 6 dependents more or less....responsibility is paramount. Enjoy while you can!....be smart but do let your heart have a say!

BTW, I'm no old fart who hasn't lived ...trust me.

to much chocolate will make you fat.

It's not the chocolate, it's the sugar and junk. Purer chocolate (70%+) is much better and is actually good for you.

I prefer the old, rusty pickup truck look.
Keeps the gold diggers away and me from getting robbed or car jacked.

That females often flock to the most ostentatious males is not a phenomenon unique to humans. In many different species, successful males--those that sire the most offspring--are often larger or more brightly colored or "show off" with more vigorous courtship displays.

Looking back, I can see how I set myself up for that. But you know what I meant.

Kick the bad boys a**( most of them are p******) when no cops are around it won't get you chicks but it makes you feel better

Half of the time when confronted they turn tail and run anyway. They are all TALK. That's such a damn good feeling...either kicking the crap out of them or watching them run.

I've heard that when a man gets older, his brain goes back up into his head where it belongs.
Really, when teens we're all walking hormones! The brain doesn't do the thinking then, that's for sure!

Sounds like a plan to me. Sounds like the American way in general. :)

I do remember reading that somewhere.

He could take martial arts as well; not a specific kind, but a combination of ground fighting, kick-boxing, and weapons, from various disciplines. The b@st@rd who messes with him after he's become an expert will not know quite what hit him after he (the b@st@rd, that is) awakens from his coma...in traction. );-)
