    sorry to burst your bubble Brian but in "my day", I slept with more gay men than straight. I was hot, they were hot, so why not get down? May not have been either one of our long time prefrences but it was a Hell of alot of fun! Get over it and let people do whatever blows their skirt up....

    I'm with you, cyn10559. I slept with way more women & young ladies after I came-out than when I was playing it straight..
    And, yeah, it was the 80's and (as I remember it) I was hot too. #cyndilauper

    I think it had less to do with the woman not being clean and more to do with the fact that he's a big homo and is, therefore, repulsed by vagina. That's just how it works. #cyndilauper

    @mattchew03: Yeah, absolutely, however, I don't get the repulsion part and do find it kind of offensive. You have no idea how often I heard the same story about some poor guy's fumbling high school experience with a "disgusting" vagina. I don't get it, I'm a straight female and I do not find other women's vaginas disgusting, not exactly enticing, but not repulsive either. Most lesbians I know who have slept with men at some point in their lives never comment on finding the penis revolting. It always felt misogynistic to me... especially the "eewww gross" parts of the story. Also, I know that not all gay men feel this way-- some are kinda into it.

    @pony_express: Maybe the penis isn't revolting because it is similar to a long, smooth, large finger -- and nobody finds fingers gross, as a rule; whereas the vage is a wet, stinky, hairy, deep, nasty hole that bleeds a lot. #cyndilauper

    @pony_express: I don't think it's uncommon for women to find the penis unattractive from an aesthetic standpoint---like Elaine said on Seinfeld, it's utilitarian, it gets you around, it's like a Jeep. For others, it's just a matter of being familiar with it. There is a theory that The Frog Prince was told to girls as kind of a fable about getting over the idea that male genitalia is repulsive. Once the princess fell in love with the frog and responded to him physically, he wasn't icky anymore. #cyndilauper

    @pony_express: I'm not sure I agree. I have many, many lesbian friends and I've heard several of them talk about how they think "dangly bits" are gross.

    It doesn't bother me and I don't take it personally. It's just something they don't like.

    I think it's fair for some gay men to think pussy is gross. I don't think all of them feel that way. I suspect there is a whole range between being curious about it, being indifferent to it and flat out not liking it.

    And I suspect that there are a lot of lesbians who fall into the same spectrum.

    I actually saw ACC. I happen to love the story, but this version is unbearable--endless falling and screaming and shock effects that belong in a George Romero film, not something Granny and Gramps are going to go take the kids to see. #robertzemeckis

    @The Sneak: Nobody. It's a marketing ploy. They know they've got a stinker, but if they put it out there for more weeks (kinda like the consumer shopping numbers during the holidays) than Christmas movies previous they can possibly fudge the numbers on the gross receipts. Opening the week after Halloween is a sure sign a Christmas-themed movie is awful. #robertzemeckis

    @the_lerpa: It cost $150M and actually made $196M. Technically speaking, it probably didn't even turn a profit, barely breaking even once marketing costs were factored in. No, this movie exists because Polar Express turned into a surprise IMAX hit and that's what they're hoping for. #robertzemeckis
