Thank you, thank you, I’ll be here all week.

I agree 100% with **chrisk72**. Only she said it way better than I could have.

And I’m glad you’re in a better mood now, **SanguineSpider**. 🙂

I think that excessive or insufficient time to climax may be a failure to measure the begining of sex correctly. Foreplay certainly counts, and it begins with doing the dishes. The most important part of masterbation is fantasy. And this begins from the moment you realize that a certain action could be pleasurable. By these measures I have been masterbating and or having sex continuously for the last 20 years. :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Relax, **SanguineSpider** , beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I’m sure you are someone’s “naked, full-breasted lesbian nymphos”. You certainly have the posts for it.

😃 Yeah, beauty is… it’s just _every_ so often, I mean… once in a blue, blue moon… I wish… well, it’s _silly_… uh, nevermind… _cough_

and my posts? OH… you mean my retail porn posts? Ohhhh, those silly things… yeah well, it wasn’t my doing. I am only retelling the events. I didn’t MAKE that guy drop his drawers to try out the lube behind the clothing rack, he did it all by himself.  
Thanks, **stargazer** , I actually am. I forget how many “lurkers” we really have here on the boards _blush_, not that lurking is bad.

same here… even if a chick tries to wack me off… i just think to myself “aww… how cute, your trying to jerk me off… but… please… im the master” cuz seriously… you know your own body better than anyone else… and u know how to make yourself feel good which leads to an early climax…

In the art of wanking, you know exactly what spots to hit to make it happen. When you’re relying on someone else to do it, it can be a hit and miss affair.

Such is my inexperienced theory.
