The person who donated $.55 probably figured that this fellow wouldnā€™t last long enough his first time with a woman to justify a WHOLE dollar. ---

All the rest he mentions is workable, not a show-stopper as it were. (Depending on just what these ā€˜skin conditionsā€™ may be, of course.) But _ **poor hygiene** _?!?!?!?! :eek: I offer this advice: TAKE A BATH and/or SHOWER. BRUSH YOUR TEETH. **EVERY** DAY. **shudders** ---

Doesnā€™t this seem more like the sort of joke some pals might play on you rather than something a desperate schlob would do t himself? Especially the bit about ā€œpoor hygieneā€? I mean, if you know that you have poor hygiene wouldnā€™t you do something about it rather than advertise it? ---

Good point Shibb, this may be a practical joke on the poor shmoe. Even if it isnā€™t, itā€™s a damn good idea for a practical joke!! ---

Well, since the Turkish guyā€™s site (the one with ā€œI kiss youā€) turned out to be a practical joke played on him, I am a bit cynical of these things. ---
