I found this and it proves what we all long since suspected

Well Mirri, you have just summed up my life story. That explains it all very neatly. Leo |

oh Leo, you are getting predictable I thought you would say something like that |

So, does the scrambling get worse the prettier the woman? Maybe there should be public service announcements warning men about this phenomenon. You know, like the drug ads: This is your brain (shows an egg). This is your brain looking at a beautiful woman (egg in frying pan being beaten with a whisk). Any questions? Just my tuppence. Andy |

WE use this phenomena where I work except it is sort of like the hearing voices phenomena. If you put a woman with a very good voice on the phone to male music store owners they tend to buy all kinds of crazy stuff, but conversly they can also suffer a higher degree of buyers remorse resulting in a dispropotionate amount of customer service. We call these guys "chick buyers". Put the right girl on the phone and I've seen guys spend themselves right into oblivion On the other hand we never find women that are guy buyers. hmmm I guess that explains why no one is saying Janet Reno for president |

This seems to be describing a well know phenomen. Men have two brains. They can only use one at a time. |

Good analogy. Works better in this case than the one it is used for in the tv commercials. |

there's a new science show over here called Brainiac and we all know the myth about ppl being less nervous at job interviews when they imagine their opposites as being naked... well in the episode today they sat a young man into a job interwiew and when he came back after a pause they were all in their underwear... needless to say he was a young man and those 2 secretaries wore kinky stuff.. it totally scrambled him *grins* even the ugly old man couldn't save him |

Men usually only use the "one" brain rather than the rational one If a pretty woman makes an appearance men fall all over themselves to make fools of themselves. It's great fun to watch, unless the man is my husband. The I fail to see the humor. Go figure. |

I see. That is when you smack him with a rolled up newspaper and tell him "Bad Boy!". |

**Whimpering in corner, quivering** Sorry, brought back the last time I paid attention to a young lady when my wife was in the room. Andy |

I love the rolled up newspaper part and of course, "bad boy" slides off the tongue so very nicely. |

*evil laugh... ironic.... lol .... and to think it is my husband who buys the newspapers he will be beaten with I ever catch him behaving in such a way. He is purchasing my weapon every Sunday.... and he hasn't a clue. I love it... thanks for the great idea. |

myriad, you are indeed evil. A kindred spirit!!!! |

First let me say: "I am wed not dead!!!" Then let me remind you lassies that there is a thread running on these boards about sporan spotting!!! Can we slap you on the nose and say "Bad Girl"? LOL I look and my wife looks, so what as long as we don't touch, LOL Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...what the mags and media portey as beautiful is not my idea of beauty! I like women with wide hips ( not the boyish look that prevails ) , ample busoms, soft lips, and no "war paint" !!! So I feel that I would have failed that survey/test. |

I must admit that I am a BAD BOY! I look all the time. I have been going to the gym 5 times per week for the last 6 months. My observation would be that if I had the money to set up all the same equipment at home, I would STILL go to the gym. Great entertainment value. My owner is very tolerant of my looking. I am not, however allowed to approach within 3 feet of the "perkys". |

I tell my Wife: "Just because I am on a diet, doesn't mean that I can't read the menu." |

Hmmm. Different culture here. Most ladies figure there is something wrong with you if you aren't looking. Of course there is a big difference between looking and doing anything. Leo |

Ohhhhhh Please, you can slap me on the nose but not too hard........ True, you may be wed but hopefully aren't dead. If my husband isn't looking I have to help him. It scares me. I look too and if I don't my husband asks if I'm okay. Look but don't touch. However, I still like the spanking part............ |

Almost overshare there JaneyMae!!!! I always say if it don't wiggle like jello when slapped it ain't worth it LOL!!! OH OH is this forum protected from the minors??? |
Posted by: maisky 15-Dec-2003, 02:52 PM | ||
I think that being a little kinky runs in the family..... |

Didn't mean to over-reach. Not completely in my nature. I work with teenagers everyday and they've given me a real education!! Also, consider who I'm related to. I like your statement about wiggling like jello. Too fun! |
