I pit disabled chicks, and not being able to bang a woman who obviously wants to bang you. This chick _wanted_ it. I mean, she wanted it badly. I could tell.

“I’m a quadriplegic!”, she said. But she wants me, I can tell by her body language.

[QUOTE=John DiFool]  
The real problem is her stated reason, which frankly is lame as hell. If she had said, “I do not wish to devastate the feelings of the man I love and thus wreck my marriage” wouldn’t that be a heck of a lot more honorable than hiding behind God?  
[/QUOTE]

Cut her some slack. She was under pressure to come up with a diplomatic way to get rid of this weirdo who kept propositioning her, and wouldn’t take no for an answer.

My wife likes it if I beat up men that come on to her. So just be grateful you’re still alive.

Out of curiousity, **digglebob** , what would have been your reaction if she didn’t want to bang you because she didn’t like banging guys she’s just met? How about if she didn’t bang you because she didn’t believe in sex outside of marriage?

_Sheesh!_ I hate to break it to you, lad. Women are not obligated to have sex with men just because they want us to. We’re not even obligated to have sex with men because both or all parties involved want to and the same applies to men. Yes, she didn’t put her rejection as tactfully as she might have. On the other hand, how tactful were you when you were establishing that you were interested? If you’d been persisting to the point where you became a pest, that makes her response a bit more understandable.

So… apparently I missed out on the enormous schlong. Or, at least, on the joke. Did the OP previously claim to have such an appendage?

By the way, in order to come up with that link, I had to skim through the collection of threads started by Diggleblop. I still can’t decide if it was more painful or humorous, but let me highly recommend against it if you ever want to try to give this guy a fair shake.

Yeah? Well, I pit women who obviously want to bang you but use that old “I’m straight” excuse.

I second this - I think she was looking for an excuse. This woman’s excuse may have been a bit lame (perhaps also true) but it also made you go away. Most people won’t argue with the “God” argument, it’s usually an argument that won’t be won.

She probably thought using this excuse would be better than listening to your follow-up whining as to why the relationship with her husband would survive the infidelity. You apparently already knew she was married and it didn’t deter your proposition. You didn’t consider the marriage to be a barrier.
