Could I shag them and still boast about it?

I’ve alraedy been gossiped about for having had sex with an Irish dude back in the day who wasn’t skeevy … so i have absolutely no intention of opening my legs for a skeeze just to avoid gossip.

If they want to gosssip about me presumably, that makes them look bad as well.

I will not have sex with anyone but my partner, and I don’t care what anyone else thinks.

I’d do her - and tell everyone I did!

So there.

Figure that one out Mr. Carolla.

Depending on who you ask, where I work, I’ve either had my way with the entire body of male personnel or I’m am angel who wouldn’t be caught dead with a skeeve…

But I’ve done the skeevy guy. FWIW, he was an attractive skeevy guy, and what I needed at the time. No one knows about it, and I like it that way. he’s even someone I consider a friend, of sorts. It’s been a few years, and I wouldn’t repeat the episode, but that’s primarily because he’s married now.

For the record, I’m defining skeevy as generally disliked, not trusted, and a bit of a player. If there’s a more specific definition, I guess I don’t know it.
