    HamNo, what does his being declarative have to do with this? (Seriously, thanks for laying off the fat jokes. I do agree with those who feel this is becoming too sad for snark, especially if the man is contemplating suicide.) #dominiccarter

    In reply to Dominic Carter Did Not Have a Good Vacation
    Carter wrote a memoir in '07 ("No Momma's Boy"). In it, he talks about being abused by his mother, who was mentally ill, as a child. That doesn't excuse him if he did abuse his wife, of course, but it's depressing how these things are cyclical. You'd think someone who was abused would not want to inflict that someone else, but that doesn't seem to be how the psychology works. Being abused seems to increase the chance that you'll be violent later in life.

    I dunno. This sounds a bit too flippant when you have a family coming apart at the seams because of a violent father, and the abused mom and kids don't need to be brought into this. #dominiccarter

    @Clarissima: Wow. Do you have any more of these? A guy who makes you laugh, cleans, brings home the jack AND performs well in bed? I'd think he'd be too tired. (Or maybe we just all have to share that same guy.)

    We've come a long way, baby. Now women are able to have just as many unrealistic expectations as the boys. Progress! Sigh.

    I've discovered several things during the course of My Gay Romance:
    1) Manly gay men are identical to their straight brethren in their capacity to turn your carefully decorated, orderly, and clean home into a replica of WWII Dresden.
    2) Changing the sheets twice a week leads to more sexxxytimes. I don't know why this is. Tide may contain aphrodisiacs. Perhaps it's turf-marking behavior. All I know is, it's worth the extra laundry.
    3) Manly gay men will do any household chore you ask, with a minimum of bitching. But you always have to ask. Never will they see a full garbage can or clean dishes in the dishwasher and find themselves in the neon glow of genius required to remedy either situation.
    4) If you let your manly gay man spend a Saturday drinking beer, watching a ball game, and farting into the sofa, he will be much more inclined to initiate sexxxytimes. You, on the other hand, will be proportionately disinclined. #sex

    averages as usual mean nothing. 10 times last week, + 2 weeks of no times are different from an average of 3x/week #sex

    Er, yeah, cleaning the toilet, and wiping toothpaste off the mirror, faucet, sink, wall (Men, what, you think it's finger paint or something?) and touching various forms of ass-foot crust makes me realllly want to have sex or suffocate you with Lysol. Six of one... #sex

    Not to sound all Morrissey-esque, but how does 82 to 83 sexy-times per year equate to "married couples get laid rarely."

    If a single guy were to go out and have one-night stands with 82 different women in the course of a year he'd be considered a modern-day Wilt Chamberlain. #sex

    @Botswana Meat Commission FC:

    Well, the act of seducing 82 different women to sleep with you during a year is materially different than convincing the woman you married to have sex with you 82+ times over the same period. Convincing your wife is way, way harder. #sex
