Anyone catching this convo about gumming corn on the cob?
Kaili | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 12:04 am     It's too early to be predictable. Use the last Survior as an example especially- there was a huge overthrow of power there and everything shifted. |
Wcv63 | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 12:24 am     Kaili, predictable at this point in the game does not mean that things stay the same. Perception of predictability is what I'm talking about. A certain frustration permeates the board. And like I said, things change and the bickering abates. Once again, please note that this is not directed towards anyone nor is it meant to be taken as criticism in any way. It is simply my opinion based on my own past observations. |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 05:50 am     I absolutely agree with Bbwatcher's statements in this post, but went to bed before the bareknuckled fight broke out (headache from previous rumbles). Bb, I'll be happy to take the lead on this if it goes into round number oh, say, nine hundred twenty-twelve. We have really beat the subject to death, though. Not alot more to say except that we all agree to disagree. So what else is new? Just wanted Bb to know he/she's not hanging out there alone. |
Puckerbutt | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 06:22 am     Okay - I just popped in and read the last post, but I'm too lazy to go back and read up on what the "disagreements" were about. (That would be just toooOOOoooOOooo much reading for my blood.) Anyway, here is my opinion - corn on the cob is pretty damn good. I hope I haven't offended anyone. |
Bbwatcher | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 07:17 am     Goddess - Thanks and, yes, please feel free to take over. I'm not much of a scrapper. Pucker - you are very funny. Thanks for starting my day off with a laugh. Today is my b'day so I won't have time to fuss and worry about the hgs anymore til at least tomorrow. I HAVE A PARTAY TO GO TO!!! Y'all take care (that includes you Oregon). |
Bohawkins | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 07:21 am     I like a gal who understands about sex, but without having learned from doing it with dozens of guys. If more gals got together and talked about "how to please a guy in bed," the physical part of relationships would be better. Some sexual subject conversations in mixed company are out of line, and really vulgar, most often because those are comments made for the purpose of offending innocent ears (as those done where Jason was present). When the speaker is aware that others don't wish to hear that kind of thing, such talk is inappropriate. This particular discussion, however, was among the girls (all willing participants), where it seems highly appropriate. Lisa never mentioned or advocated that such sex should be promiscious, or even outside of marriage, and this discussion could have even done been at a church pre-marital class for young women. Ignorance about sex is really so sad, especially for girls who are going into marriage uneducated, because they learned somewhere that it's "dirty" to talk about it. Many fundamental Christian churches recognize this need, and have classes for young people (not in mixed company, so the subjects can be approached with candor and dignity). Many years ago, when I first had sex, I went to the library to get books to learn everything I could. I was dating a gal at a Christian college, and I found the very best instructional material in books in their library, which were all entitled as guides for married couples. Years later, articles I read in Cosmo, and even later in Maxim and others, could have been lifted right from those marriage manuals. So, this particular conversation was a healthy one. It didn't ascribe to any philosophy about sex without committment; it merely talked about how to do it. I believe that conversations like this, among the girls, can be useful for enabling an inexperienced gal to become a more satisfying partner, without having to learn from actual sexual experimentation. Instead of being licentious and vulgar, it is a healthy, innocent guide to proper living. This kind of talk is only made vulgar by the assumption that such information is being provided for the purpose of having sex in indiscriminate, casual and promiscuous situations, which most would argue are inadvisable for developing a mentally healthy life. This conversation fit all the requirements of being normal and natural, and this is what should be encouraged. |
Alegria | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 07:43 am     Bo, great post. |
Spygirl | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 08:00 am     Dang -- that is one of the best posts I've read, Bohawkins! We discussed this in chat last night -- why a handful of us were not offended by the talk last night. If I had spent three days thinking about it, I couldn't have come up with an answer quite as eloquent. What a great contribution to this discussion  |
Alegria | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 08:06 am     That being said, I'm in the mood for some corn-on-the-cob with lots of butter, salt & pepper. |
Archie | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 08:24 am     Very well said Bo! |
Tabbyking | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 08:48 am     the only thing i would 'disagree' with is learning about oral sex at a 'church premarital class for young women'. as far as i know, many states and most churches say oral sex is against the law! this is a teasing post, guys, so i don't need a whole bunch of debate;>) and how come guys don't need to get together to talk about pleasing their gals?! your suggestion goes both ways, right?! |
Weinermr | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 08:57 am     OK Tabbyking, what would you like to know.  |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 09:13 am     Bohawkins: have to run off to a meeting, so not much time to tailor my response - but I wanted to put out there that, if in fact these girls were sitting around at a sorority house or somewhere other than where they ARE, I would pretty much agree with your post. However, there was nothing about this conversation between the girls and their tens of thousands of internet viewers, male and female, which encourages me to view this conversation as anything but an exercise in pure exhibitionism. There are hundreds of reasons why Lisa shouldn't have undertaken this particular exercise, which I'll publish in a list when I have more time, but suffice it to say I understand that these girls were picked exactly for their lack of inhibition, and it seems to have gotten to the point of one-up-manship (forgive the run-on, in a hurry). I'll admit that I come from the Catholic, Sister-Mary-Missionary-Position school of early training (since largely abandoned), but I do think there's alot to be said for treating and KEEPING sex as an intimate act between two caring partners and not as cocktail conversation about a jungle act between chance-encounter primates. I know you're coming after me, Oregonfire, but I'm willing to pay the price on this one. Now I shall assume the position, not unlike a donkey hunkered down in a hailstorm, and prepare to take my ration of s/. I'll consider and file scathing retorts later in the day.  |
Tabbyking | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 09:19 am     or maybe just file a tort... great post, goddess. i should have just hired you yesterday to put this one out there! that's how i felt about the conversation NOT being between a few young women, but for exhibitionism. that's why you get all the big bucks...(roddy, eric, joshy!!) |
Bob2112 | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 09:21 am     Weiner, what props will you be using in your discussion?  |
Tabbyking | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 09:36 am     bob, you make me laugh! but, er, uh, yeah, weiner, what props will you be using? or should i say what 'crops'? |
Weinermr | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 09:46 am     Ummmm.....errrrrr......ummmmmm......errrrrrrr Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Moderated site, right? Rats!!! (note to self - be nicer to Bob) |
Minnyace01 | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 09:48 am     Bohawkins - your post pretty much summed up what I was trying to defend last night, except that it was very well written and thought out, as opposed to my ramblings, which weren't. And Spygirl - those of us who were defending the conversation could have really used your help last night! |
Spygirl | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 09:51 am     LOL -- I was in chat having the same conversation |
Bob2112 | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 10:06 am     Tabbyking: "...or should i say what 'crops'? " I so want to put this in the Best One Liners for Board Posters thread, but I'm afraid that the orignal topic might flare up again from the reference! <...I'm gonna do it anyway!...>  |
Oregonfire | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 12:00 pm     I'm not going after anyone. My problem was with the assumption that if you don't mind or even like the sex talk on BB3, that you must have unsatisfying relationships outside in the real world. To me, that is a huge jump in logic, and seemed directed at the few posters on the site who don't have a problem with that angle. Pardon the pun, but that was below the belt. Every other part of BBwatcher's post was fine to me--the "everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion" clause covers the rest of it for me. And there is always the option of not subscribing to the live feeds and just watching the TV show. No one is being forced to watch. |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 01:12 pm     Oregonfire: I'm not sure if I should feel like I got left at high noon with my guns hanging out, or if I should PTL I showed up a few minutes late for the shootout. Anyway, whew!! Dodged some bullets, either way. Truthfully, I'd generally rather not argue on my downtime, since I argue for a living. Sort of strips it of its entertainment value. |
Oregonfire | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 01:19 pm     I try to chose my arguments carefully around here. There are just too many opportunities to get into brawls! Don't worry, Goddessatlaw--I'm quick to get angry sometimes, but quick to forgive and forget too. What were we talking about again? |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 01:21 pm     Got me.  |
Ocean_Islands | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 04:44 pm     Don't you think that these conversations are just the result of a Cosmo subscription? |
Nathalia | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 04:51 pm     Ocean..I subscribe to Cosmo..and not once have I ever seen an article on how to give fellatio to a fork...lol...sorry..couldn't help myself |
Ladytex | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 04:53 pm     LOL, Ocean Islands |
Goddessatlaw | Saturday, July 27, 2002 - 05:08 pm     Oh, hell no. I escaped this thread once with my hair still attached to my scalp. Not going there again. My karma's about used up. |
