[Paco]

Get back in the kitchen where you belong! ;o)

[peacebaby]

profound...

a tad bit of historical literary prose in a wierd thread.

[lovecraft]

I don't think you're missing all that much.

[najida]

Ha!

Wash, mop, sweep....no reward in that. (and you have to do it all over again every few months too!)

[peacebaby]

oooh, Paco, you better duck. Najida throws a mean miter saw.

[lovecraft]

Yup, the tv version has some fairly cute wives. But that's fantasy, like the idea of a man that gets along with all 3 wives.

[MineralMan]

"What I don't understand is why isn't about women with more than one husband?

Makes a heck of a lot more sense to me."

I'm just shocked beyond belief to read this from you. [grin]

[najida]

You know what I saw the other day in my BIL's garage, unused and unwanted?

A chop saw.

I'm going to work on him tomorrow and see if he'll let me have it. ;)

[Mr. Jeeves]

The five women watching the show — covering their eyes during the sex scenes...

Grownups, I see. ;)

>>This is ALL about pro-gay marriage and warming Americans to the idea of "non-traditional" families being just like everone else. <<
If that's what HBO is attempting to do, it's having the opposite effect on me. My wife and I have watched every episode and laugh at how f*cked up this "non-traditional" but "perfectly acceptable" arrangement is.

[najida]

Really,
Think about it.

Guys can barely handle one woman (as they all say here)...but with women ah,
hmmm...

Oh you get the picture,

[JennysCool]

Ha! As usual, Mr. Clemens sums it up!

[cmsgop]

We watch it too, and we like it.

[travlnmn41]

Two of his wives are submissive, but the blond is a CRAZY spendaholic.

[najida]

Hrmpt,
Well,
She sounds like at least she's having a good time.

[lovecraft]

I think Tom Hanks produces this show.

[twigs]

I think my husband would say that one is all he could handle, too. He was happily married for 23 years and lost his first beloved wife to disease. Now after almost 9 years of marriage, he says that his propensity to find feisty, out-spoken women is a pattern. He's now had two, fortunately not at the same time, and that's enough! Ha!!

bestiality-----coming soon

However that would put an interesting spin on that old love song standby...

"And They Called It Puppy Love"

[twigs]

He deserves to have all his wives spendaholics!

[rudabaga]

"bestiality-----coming soon"

what part of consent are you having trouble understanding?
