    You know John Mayer has a penis and almost all rapists do too. Case closed.

    Sodomy is any sex that isn't for procreation (anal and oral copulation according to Webster's), so how do we know Mr. Mayer isn't just talking about a lively, consensual face fucking?

    If I dated both Jennifer Aniston and Jessica Simpson I'd equate dating women with shame and punishment too.

    This quote sounds more closet gay than rapist to me:

    "It's crazy to me that in my head, that being 32 and dating women is going to get me in trouble," he said, talking faster as he went along. "I can't even explain to you how terrible that feels, that I equate dating a woman with punishment, shame, guilt, disappointment, reproach, reprimand, persecution. It's a nightmare."

    @drunkexpatwriter: I didn't read either from that. He's saying that when he dates anyone the press turns it into this bad thing and gets him into trouble, hence he equates dating with having to deal with constant criticism in the media.

    Just not sure how it's closeted gay OR rapey.

    @Tiger Lourdes: Zombie Hunter:

    "I equate dating a woman with punishment, shame, guilt, disappointment" is very similar to how some of my gay friends have described what it was like when they were trying to force themselves to be straight.

    I'm with you that I don't see anything rapey in his quote.

    @drunkexpatwriter: Yeah, it's pretty common when someone is under a microscope of any kind to equate their personal life with the negative attention it often receives. Whether it's a group of friends or the media. And honestly, no matter what the guy does he's criticized! But, that hardly makes it "rapey".

    Ok, Miss Norma Mcdonald if hat really is your name, here's my rebut to the Hillary Clinton sucking lemons thing.

    Take a look at the main pic. John Mayer? There is some wonky face without you calling it sexist.

    And please, Nick, stop responding and disabling my ability to respomd.

    Saying you'll 'forcefully sodomize' someone isn't necessarily rapey. Maybe they want you to forcefully sodomize them. There's a big difference between 'forcefully' and 'forcibly.'

    Just wondering: Are there popular "guitar gods" lamer than John Mayer out there? I've often tried to compile a Top Three Guitarists Lamer Than John Mayer, but I inevitably get stuck after number 2.

    @snugbug: Well... I assume you want people from his generation? There are far more awful "guitar gods" from decades past. His only really competition in his age bracket that I can think of (at least as far as shitty frat-blooze playing goes) is Kenny Wayne Shepherd. Of course, I had to look him up to even remember his name, so he's a distant second at best.

    @MyNameIsChris: I bow to your expertise on lame guitarists.

    I entertained the notion that both Tom Morello and Omar Rodriguez-Lopez (that cute prog wizard from The Mars Volta) are significantly nerdier than Mayer, but I take it back. I find their respective signature styles super-geeky, but upon closer consideration, they themselves are in no way John Mayer-lame. This competition yields a landslide win for "the frat blooz preacher."

    @snugbug: I like John Mayer (though he's getting insufferable), but he can play hell out of a guitar, and is essentially another polymath. Oh, and Billy Gibbons (from ZZ Top) has these business cards:

    OH. I guess I should note that there's also the possibility that John Mayer just hates his publicist. In which case: awesome.

    Furthermore, I have it on good authority that this is one of John Mayer's favorite songs of all time.

    (warning: This song is really fucked-up and offensive, although kind of catchy!)

    I know a girl who met John Mayer at a bar and he told her that she looked like she could give really good head. What made me believe her is that she didn't sound happy about it when she told the story.

    The only thing that could make me hate John Mayer is if he forcefully sodomized me. And that's because he should have just asked nicely.
