Or peed off of a 2nd story deck. My sons favorite.
Right. In a mostly-empty theater, I’m going to get a little freaked out if any stranger chooses to sit in the seat next to me.
If it’s an attractive female, I probably wouldn’t object. Except that my wife is likely seated on my other side, and she most certainly would!
These are not examples of sex/gender stereotyping. They are examples of “social space conventions,” which vary by culture. Different cultures just feel comfortable at varying distances.
It is said that at a diplomatic party, it’s fun to watch an Englishman or American conversing with an Arab.
The Arab’s comfortable distance for casual conversation is at least a foot closer than the American’s. So he take a half-step forward because he subconciously is too far away. This makes the American feel vaguely uncomfortable, so backs up half a step. In half an hour or so they’ll work their way clear across a room.
These cultural conventions are neither right or wrong, they’re just different.
Excellent point.
Probably couldn’t even dot the “eye”
Dear God,
Spare us from the curse of unmanly men.
Thank you, metmom
Buy some stiletto pumps and a garter belt, draw the shades, and indulge yourself. Because your attempt to dissuade other men from manliness is nothing more than a pathetic attempt to universalize your pathology. You'd be better off spending your efforts in finding makeup that will hide a five o'clock shadow.
This is the feminisation of the male of the species.
Fat Boy, Bubba and Wildman.
I have a friend we call dirtman. He gets offended if we don’t call him that.
I was in the usual standing-in-line reverie. It was such a shock I wondered for a minute if maybe I had gotten too close. There are guys who get off on rubbing up against women in lines or on buses and such.
But I am most certainly not one of them!
Yeah, why on earth would somebody sit on a public toilet if he didn't have to?
We recently gave our son several of his grandfather’s bolo ties. He performs blue grass and country western music so we thought he would wear them. But he’s still wearing his western suit and a regular tie. And cowboy books.
Well now, he is the daughter his mother always wanted.
I go outside to pee unless it is below 20 deg F. I live in the country, no neighbors.
You know, I don’t mind there being female super-heroes or whatever you want to term it. It gets laughable when they try to make it look like a 95 pound woman can take on a 220 pound male.
If this worked, every 95 pound freshman guy would be king of the high school campus, and the football jocks would be shivering in some corner afraid they might be found.
Our armed services would be turning down the 220 pound super-human, in favor of the 95 pound weakling.
If a 95 pound woman can learn hand to hand combat tactics that will make them much more effective, imagine what happens when they come up against a 220 pound guy who has also learned hand to hand tactics.
FAIL!
Joke from the Nixon years.
Sir someone wrote Nixon Sucks in the snow in pee.
The good news is we found out who did it. We analyzed it and it’s Henry Kissenger’s.
What’s the bad news.
The hand writing is Pats.
In my youth this thing would be giving up his lunch money. Having balls is more than being born with them.
Poor little Robert needs to be rushed to the emergency room immediately, and be tested for the presence of any testosterone in his body. I bet the tests come up empty. In the meantime, he can get a blankie, console with other womyn, and have access to a sit down potty.
Pathetic.
Yes, sitting down to pee is simply more civilized if you’re inside. And it’s being kind to the person who keeps the place clean.
For me, it’s my wife, and I’d never dream of being so rude as to let one of the streams hit the floor!
