Y’all are making one enormous, swollen, pulsing assumption. You’re assuming it’s _his_. Yeah, that’s right. Maybe it _ain’t_. Maybe the OP is a beard. I’ll leave you all with that thought for the weekend. ---

> [@Bob Ducca](#): > > Really? > > “ **x-ray vision** isn’t just adequate, he’s definitely adequate.” No one talks that way. They do talk the way the OP did. She said he _“doesn’t have any problems getting an erection and performing with me, and he’s definitely adequately sized.”_ The _definitely_ there implies that he’s more than adequate. ---

Wow, guys. This is both incredibly funny and helpful! Thank you so much for both telling me why it was used, and then giving advice on how I could approach it. I still haven’t said anything to him about it, I think I’ll let it naturally come about and see what happens. Finally, **x-ray vision** interpreted my words correctly…I was trying to be _coy_, people! ---
