Yeah well, it's Harry Saber.

Hey, not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry Saber.

If it weren't for the icky sex part I'd be married to a woman ;-)

I have no idea what you're talking about.

It's one of those occasions where I'm afraid to even ask for graphics.

Because they don't know the Right men, they have to be. :-)

Great answer! I presume you mean that Right men are apt to be more accepting of less proficiency in the bedroom arts from their mates.

They've given more rides than Greyhound....they're bound to have picked up a few tricks along the way

By golly, I think you've nailed it...in a "catty" sort of way.

That's what all the lesbians say.

Good quip. I notice, though, that you didn't disagree with my statement.

I was an Army wife...

That's all I needed to know... my Mom was a Master Sarge in the WAC's on WWII, my ( late ) first wife was one of the ( approximately ) half-a-dozen people I have know in 52 years who was utterly and absolutely fearless- nothing that walked God's Earth, man or beast, scared her. Nothing.

My second wife's Mother picked up a business and ran it and raised two kids when her husbamd died unexpectedly- women have a lot more grit than some give them credit for... and a lot of them don't even know that vast well of strength is there for the tapping until circumstances demand that they draw on it- but it is there, waiting on call.



To the rest of you?

Wow! I had no idea so many would respond, and I thank you for keeping it light-hearted ( OK, some of the doggerel was a tad pungent, but that's OK, isn't that how it goes between us men & you women? ) and there are just too many to respond personally, but I do thank you for looking!

OTOH, Conservative women, rather than unfairly rewarding the unskilled, realize the prize goes to the guy who can rightfully claim it.

Excellent try, but do you hear that buzzer in the background? That means: wrong answer.

Thanks for looking-- isn't it weird how some days you can post an item that you think will draw attention ( or fire! ) and it just drops dead.... and then sometimes you toss one out on a whim ( like I did with this ) and it gets wings & flys?

In the family court arena when the battle lines are drawn It matters not to women who is right and who is wrong For with single minded focus wife or lawyer cannot fail For the female of the species is more deadly than the male.
