What about Ashley?

Did he convince Silda that he was set-up by the Feds?

Maybe she felt guilty about about their fading or non-existent sex life?

Let's face it, this is normal male behavior.

Testosterone certainly does affect behavior.

European wives accept such behavior as normal.

The real crime is that Spitz busted those other sex rings as he and Ashley got it on.

Can the Hooker Kill the John?

This is all so symptomatic of a mentally ill society. The hooker is demonized, busted, and now kiled in this "game" as the john walks. Yes, early pubescent boys are receiving the message that's it's normal and accepted to have sex with hookers and then kill them.

Wow! When has this happened before?

I personally would prefer a Myra Breckenridge game.

Peace and Love,

Ask the "Republicans for Obama" and the "I Hate Hillary Democrats"

This is where the answer is.

The poll numbers will make the decision.

Original article: My failed lesbian romance

Addicts Can Be the Sweetest, Nicest People

and we can fall in love with them and rationalize our relationship. They can shower us with attention and tell us and do the sweetest things.

They are your best lover at night and a total stranger in the morning.

Sexually variant people (as in gay, bi, trans, inter, etc) are born with their sexuality and usually know during childhood what their sexuality is.

That's cool that you checked out your sexuality with Gisele, who was nice to you, and realized that you were not sexually attracted to her.

I wish you all the best in life and PLEASE BE SMART in your next relationship.

"My Failed Bi-curious Romance"

More appropriate.

Yes, also an inappropriate piece on the historic day in California.

Thank you NEAL

Perhaps check out The Bear's essay on psychedelics on his site, where he refers to them resembling hormones.

The brain functions as a radio transmitter and receiver that can be tuned to various frequencies by a wide variety of molecules. Memory certainly mixes with input. We do have the amazing ability to download some incredible content.

Nice to hear about out of the box experiences.

Be Well,

Moses had a 'fro

Growing up Jewish in the '50's, I remember my Mom telling me that Moses was black and had kinky hair. I found this hard to believe until we went to Israel and she pointed out the Ethiopean Jews.

Upon his election, let's hope Barack stops the DEA raids on the cannabis dispensaries in California and takes a laissez-faire Repub position on "states rights" concerning medical marijuana.

Sex vs Gender

As Dr. Leah Schaeffer, noted trans therapist in NYC and past president of the Harry Benjamin Gender Dysphoria Ass'n described this dichotomy as:

"Sex is between the legs and

Gender is between the ears"

As Thomas identifies as a man, then of course he is a man!

How arrogant, transphobic, and cruel it is to label Thomas anything but what he says he is.

Thomas meets both criteria above.

Transsexual vs Transgender

The unenlightened confusion over gender and sex is in the definitions of the words.

Sex= Biological-anatomical and physiological characteristics.

Testosterone and estrogen hormones change the anatomical and physiological characteristics of the body. Surgery also changes the characteristics.

So, technically, a trans person who uses hormones and or has surgery or is contemplating and desires such actions is classically defined as

transsexual, as defined by Dr. Harry Benjamin in his 1970 landmark book, The Transsexual Phenomenon.

Gender= Sociopsychological construct of the continuum of masculinity - femininity or any degree in between. Transgender may refer to a trans person who identifies somewhere on the continuum that may be different than their biological sex. Transgender persons may also

be considered transsexual if they are using hormones and or have had surgery or are contemplating and desiring such. Transsexual persons may also refer to themselves as transgender if they wish.

The term transgender has become a more encompassing and acceptable term, as the sex in transssexual is not as well accepted.

Thomas is thus classically defined as a transsexual man as he has been using testosterone and may have had surgery.

The medical, legal, and governmental establishments regard Thomas as male.

Anyone who refuses to accept Thomas as a man is

akin to the racists who refuse to accept an adult person of African ancestry as a man or woman, but refers to them as "boy" or "girl", regardless of their adult age.

Mazol Tov!

There is a report that Thomas gave birth to a baby girl, naturally, on June 29th.

Thomas said that he is the father and his wife Nancy is the mother.

May they all have have wonderful, happy lives together!

"Ooh Blah Dee, Ooh Blah Dah, life goes on."

The Answer

The decision will be made as per the poll responses of the:

1. Independents and Republicans for Obama

2. "I Hate Hillary" and "I Love Hillary" Democrats.

Simple.
