Not to mention his intellectual credibility, which is also damn sexy to most women I know.

Ugh, puh-lease! It’s bad enough we have to count J. Edgar Hoover and Jeffrey Dahmer among our ranks - have mercy!

Yeah, but you also get Tchaikovsky, Oscar Wilde, Walt Whitman (I think), **and** Benjamin Britten!

(Jeffrey Dahmer? Really?)

Yes on all counts. And Jeffrey Dahmer cruised gay bars to find his victims. My mother worried about me for months after that.

Hmmm … sounds more like Dahmer was out to stomp on gays, not have sex with them. (Perhaps he raped them while/after he killed them as a power thing, but that hardly qualifies as gay sex.)

I found a summation of his crimes on the net, and couldn’t even get halfway through. Ugh. Why did I bring this up? ☹

He was a psychopath, murderer, cannibal, child molester, necrophiliac, and, yes, homosexual.

Alright, in retrospect, we’ll take Pashley, but only if he gets a haircut and does something about those shoes… 🙂

Actually, no, I haven’t. I used to use them to attract dollar bills, but that when I was younger and about ten pounds thinner and looked good in nothing but a g-string. 😉

Women with big breasts have an easier time in life, this is called ‘Boobrigation’.

Is not the opposite of ‘straight’, ‘crooked’?  
I wonder why they call it ‘straight’?

So then straight women with big breasts would have ‘Straightboobrigation.’

What about lesbians? Would they have “Bentboobrigation?” 🙂
