Oh so true. Part of the reason I like him is that he reminds me of the ‘cute guys’ back in High School I pretended to be too evolved to be attracted to. You know, the guys in CAT caps and down vests and work boots who hung around in the smoking area and over by the Voc Ed trailers… I should have gone back home and jumped Carlo Stutzman after we graduated. He would probably have been lousy, as you say, but he wouldn’t have been my first bad lay and I’d have gotten it out of my system!

I also have a bit of a weakness for Lowrider-looking guys. Brown eyed boys in pleated dress pants and wife-beater teeshirts… Yum.

There’s a little Lady Chatterly in most of us . . .

I like to think Earl would be trainable in bed. Just convince him it’s good karma to learn how to do you right, and bad karma not to, and he’s all yours. And he quit smoking, which is a big plus.
