I'm not saying it's wrong, I just use it for extra emphasis, and if I went to using it all the time I'd lose that.

Yeah, I wouldn't be with a woman who didn't shave her legs. I wouldn't get on her case about it, either, but there you have it.

I wouldn't get on a woman's case about profanity either. I don't think it's particularly undignified. You've all read the way I talk; a reasonable amount of profanity can be used for emphasis.

And boys rule.

You wouldn't be with a woman who didn't shave her legs? At all? Like, you meet a girl, you hit it off, you fall in love, but she (for some reason) doesn't shave her legs so it's over? That sucks! Preferring that she shave her legs I get, even the statement that you would find her substantially less physically . But a flat out refusal to be with a woman who doesn't shave her legs seems like refusing to date a guy with an earring. Sure, it's a legitimate preference, but aren't you limiting your options in a kinda arbitrary way?

More reasons why girls kick ass, and guys don't.

I would date a woman with hairy legs. I would date a woman without any legs. I'm fucking desperate. i would even date margret thatcher for fuck sake. Oh yeah, for the love of christ don't try to reassure me this time. You're all very kind, but I've already derailed TWO threads with my sheer patheticness and I have no intention of adding this one to the list.

Women swearing is unladylike? Not in this country it isn't! The people of Ireland believe in sexual equality for swearing. I've heard girls say fuck shite and cunt next to me on the bus, and neither me nor anyone else thought twice about it.

I bet Margaret Thatcher has hairy legs.

How often does she have to shave her legs before you'll date her? Are you just eliminating people who've never shaved their legs? What if she's done it once? What if she does it for special occasions? Or is monthly the cutoff? Weekly? Daily? Hourly?

I'm just wondering where the line is, here. I, for example, don't shave my legs with any sort of regularity, but I wouldn't consider myself someone who Doesn't Shave her Legs, because, you know, I don't have any sort of objection to it, and failing to do so is less a matter of policy than of laziness. I suppose I would do it more often if I were dating someone who preferred it, but only out of courtesy, and if they acted like it was an obligation, or that their continuing to date me was contingent upon it, I would be mega pissed.

It is ok for men to use swearwords, but it is considered "unladylike" for a woman to swear (or tell dirty jokes).

It is all the fault of the social programing to make women more submissive through the language. I think from now on I am going to fight this blatant example of discrimination.

it's not considered unladylike to swear... women talking dirty turns us on.
It's considered unladylike to go around turning random men on!!!
that's where the problem is...

when men swear, women either slap us or roll their eyes or say: "i hate that word don't call it that." ...and kick you out of bed...
I've never seen a woman kicked out of a pub or resteraunt for swearing...

I don't see what's wrong with desensitizing profanity. Why the fuck should certain words have special qualities the rest of words don't have? Say what you want. There is no power in "fuck" that you didn't put there.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

take me...

SEE!!!

"There is no power in "fuck" that you didn't put there."

yep. a good "fuck" requires you to put alot of power into it...

many girls will not date a guy, just because he has a beard... trust me i know...

Irish girls can say anything and it's just pure sex!!! they are the apex....
canadian accents on women do it too... not sure what that's aboot, aye.

i don't expect a girl to shave her legs any more than she expects me to stay sober.


but seriously... whenever i've been ambushed by prickly legs... i've always just gone: "toaday, i think i'll work the upper-body more."

[looktothesky]

I tend to shave my legs a lot. Any sight of those nasty little hairs makes me feel gross, so I get rid of them any chance I get!! As for being ambushed, I tend to get rid of that stuff just as often as well. No hair for me thanks, except on my head.

LOL! I'm currently a bit buzzed by sugar. I'll regret that previous post when I wake up tomorrow. lol.

[Laughlyn]

Heh, it made my night anyway......

[Slade]

Nah. You put it in white. Only some people know how to decode it. More power to you. I put that crap up I wrote when I was intoxicated the other night for the worst novel ever.

Jen, Laura: I knew I'd catch some for that comment, and from exactly you too. Anyway, I have all sorts of friends I don't have sex with. If I were involved with a woman who didn't shave her legs, I wouldn't enjoy the sex as much. Maybe we'd still be friends, assuming she didn't hold it against me that I didn't want to have sex with her for not shaving her legs.

I don't think it's the same as not dating a guy with an earring, but for the record, I wouldn't do that either. Frankly, if I were dating a woman who liked to be tied up, I'd tie her up. Have done, have done. Not my thing, but if she likes it, then what the hell. If I dated a woman, and we fell in love, and I told her about my fetish for smooth sexy women's legs, to the point HER legs, and she wouldn't shave them for me, EVER, then yeah, we'd have different ideas of love and relationships and compromise.

I think smooth female legs are sexy. If I were involved with a woman who was naturally light-haired, it might not matter so much. And no, I didn't mean "If I were involved with a woman and one time, she didn't shave her legs;" I mean were I involved with a woman and she didn't shave her legs, as a rule, then it wouldn't last. So Laura, your definition would probably be the same as mine, which yeah, is not mega-Nazirriffic, IMO. But I know what you're saying about rules ruffling your fur, believe me.

On the flip side, were I involved with a woman, and we were in love, and she said she wanted me to shave my legs, I'd do that. And if she wanted me to take the earrings out, then they would go to. Really.

LTTS: Yeah, thanks for sharing.

Am I just being a horny little pervert, or does this mean the post you made the last page was actually true? I am now having a hard time thinking of anything but you, shaving foam and one of those delicate pink razors...

[looktothesky]

LTTS: Yeah, thanks for sharing.

Yep, that regret's kicking in now..lol.

VD, true or not? No one will ever know.
