tracy should see a psychiatrist about her relationship with sex.

and to the guys...no need to apologize for your sexuality. go tell the prudes to shove it up their collective asses. Oh, my, little girls finding out their fathers fantacize about sex? the calamity. the horror. give me a freakin' break. grow up. you would be stunned to see what those fathers are doing out in the real world. i know, cause i have been on the receiving end, and don't find it to be a moral dilema.

Jill-Off

"...'jerk off,' use the female equivalent. Right. The only one there is, is 'masturbate...'"

____________

Actually, the female equivalent of "jack-off" is "jill-off," which I learned from a bunch of lesbians at San Francisco's Center for Sex and Culture.

big sister says...

"War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength."

I love this quote:

"It's true that women held 49.9 percent of American payroll jobs in July, but that doesn't tell us 'whether the high unemployment rate for men comes just because men are more likely to be laid off, or if it's also because men are finding new jobs more slowly than women are,' he explains.

It's like saying "It's hard to tell if men are losing the race because they are running slower, or if its because they are running slower while women run faster." Stupid.

"...As soon as it's back to business as usual it'll likely be ... back to sex roles as usual..." (cough)(cough) Bullshit! (cough).

I think the boy crisis in education will prove this last quote a lie. The statement is not a "mistake," it is a lie. The author knows it.

Original article: Why do women have sex?

mating

"...There is a definite shift between short-term and long-term mating. So for long-term relationships, women are going for guys who are good dads, based on cues like niceness, kindness and cooperativeness..."

Isn't everything pretty much all about women already?

Doesn't navel gazing get boring?

When women outnumber men on reddit.com...

...then I will be surprised.

They should have given her a promotion.

"...The only case I have ever personally seen involved a young female soldier put on "profile" (disciplined, reduced in rank) for having had sex with several male soldiers at the same time in her room..."

@paulpsd7

"...Why do gays want to be in the military in any significant numbers anyway? It seems like a pretty homophobic culture..."

____________

So they can be naked in communal showers with the objects of their objectification.

pretentious bastard

"i believe in promiscuity" ?!?!

I'm sure he believes in bug chasing and "gift giving" parties as well.

I look at him, now and as a youth, I find it hard to believe this guy slept his way to anything. He'd be lucky to give it away.

Original article: Buffy the gay vampire lover

I call bullshit

"...some ladies love gay male porn because it provides sexual entertainment without requiring a woman to picture herself in a scene that might otherwise be rife with unsavory sexual dynamics..."

_______________

Baloney. Some women would rather watch gay porn because they get jealous of the broad in straight porn, and see her as competition. It has nothing to do with the perverse theory presented above. Unsavory sexual dynamics? Just because your love life is an unmitigated bore, don't project your inadequecies on the rest of us. Thank you.

@Rosenkavalier

anorexic waifs? baloney. you haven't watch straight porn if that is how you describe the female talent. or maybe your obese, i don't know. men like bouncy, bussomy, sexy women. its women who look at waifs in their weird magazines.

and your description of the talent, and i'm paraphrasing here, as victims, which is basically what you are saying with your description of the womens facial expressions is also baloney. men like straight porn because it is the fantasy of having, not only a willing partner, but an enthusiastic one. a woman who wants to be there, not a tracy clark-flory type who's sexual hang-up i am sure to driver her husband to porn. as i've repeatedly stated, having been in adult videos, i find feminists interpretations of the industry, the talent, and the experience to be based on self-serving lies.

you should stop projecting into the mirror.

and BTW salon, your freakin advertisments are so instrusive as to actually detract from the site. just passing the cursor over an ad now makes in pop up, blocking content? sux

Good for him.

I am sick of the correct thinking pussy men that inhabit our lives these days.

And the rap, I agree with it all.

Should we believe her?

Who cares. You have to act in accordance as if her statement is true. Why? What's the result if what she says true, and we didn't behave properly?

Friday, October 16, 2009 06:11 PM

You wouldn't have missed

had you been tuned into reddit.com nine days ago, and continually since. Who knew that a bunch of tech geeks were more "feminist" than the bores here.

Edit

The whole first paragraph of the post could be lopped off. I would make the delay in getting to the poorly articulated substance less frustrating.

First they came for my dress...

and I did not protest, because I like to be naked. Then they came for my "fuck me" pumps. I did not protest, because I like people touching my feet. Then they came for my make-up, and I did not protest because make-up. I did not protest because make-up is expensive and its hard to put on false eyelashes.

Then they came for me, stating, "Why is this man naked in public?" Arrest him.

I wondered why this wasn't covered by Salon yesterday.

It was all over Reddit (dot) com.

She had an affair? No wonder...

"The results arrived in the mail: He was not the father. "I ran upstairs, locked myself in the bathroom and cried and dry-heaved for 45 minutes. I felt like my guts were being ripped out," he says..."

Give me a fucking break. What kind of "man" behaves in that kind of way?

Cold as ice. That is how one handles a situation like this.
