Any adult woman who would willingly fuck one of these losers needs a very serious talking to and the phone numbers of a few excellent mental health therapists practicing within reasonable driving distance.

“hey, baby! Tell me about your playdough and bacon!”

It’s got to work, eventually. Just GOT TO. He only has to try it on the remaining 2 billion+ women, and he’ll eventually find Miss Right.

Okay, it has about as much chance of success as McCain’s Iraq strategery, but if you believe in one, then you have to believe in the other.

Sheesh, I know that guy, although it was high school. He was a senior (still 16), she was a soph. She was gorgeous, drop-dead gorgeous, fun, open and umm …. frisky.

After some mild canoodling following a concert, his sister, also a soph, heard through the grapevine about it.

She opened his eyes, shocked him, not with rumor or mean-spirited gossip, but with care. She knew about the girl, knew about her family, knew about her stepdad and what he had done to her.

Ya see, she was just beginning her now 25-year long career in working with the disabled, the crippled, the abused, the shunned and she wanted to make sure that her brother would never take advantage.

He never did.

She taught him more about himself and his view of girls/women in that brief, five-minute, almost off-the-cuff conversation than he would have ever learned on his own.
