Hi, Hoosiers & Michianians (if that's a word) -

Has it occurred to anyone else on this supposedly adult site that we're all tending to behave as if we're at a junior high dance? You remember...All of the boys are gathered on one side of the gym floor and all of the girls on the other. The air is charged with vague but intense sexual energy and the mingled scents of too much perfume/aftershave/acne remedies. The boys act rowdy, punch one another's arms and try to show off while the girls giggle and whisper to one another behind their hand. Oh, and about 4 people actually dance.

My point (if I have one) is that we should all be adult enough by now to realize that we wouldn't be here if we weren't interested in meeting like-minded people. Guys need to realize that "Fuck Me!" isn't likely to have the intended consequence and ladies should understand that those guys who are inclined to gush sweet nothings in iambic pentameter just to get a date are a tad pathetic and usually posing.

Here's a thought. How about considering the possibility of leaving sex completely out of the equation initially, and concentrating on meeting and getting to know someone in public (even in daylight, God forbid!) for coffee or a drink before we plunge into what you may or may not want licked? This offers the advantages of being safe, open-ended in terms of offering a bail-out opportunity (if it just isn't right, it can last 5 minutes), and, lastly but most importantly, human.

Let's face it. Sexual chemistry is somewhat mysterious. The alchemy of attraction includes unknown quantities of mood, appearance, luck and about 75 other unnamed and unknowable ingredients. It's not likely to leap at one out of cyberspace fully formed.

I'm not saying that this site doesn't perform a useful function. I believe it does just that, but no more. Exchanging a couple of emails before agreeing to meet can be useful and save time lost pursuing the clearly incompatible. But, let's all be real about this...(glittering generality follows) In most cases, women control whether or not sex is going to happen. That's how it works. (2nd glittering generality follows) Most women aren't going to respond to an email, meet one of us fine specimens at a motel, and jump into bed with us. They're going to choose carefully and they won't make their choices based solely upon the caliber of our prose, the size of our penises, or our claims to real or imagined sexual prowess. They're understandably cautious (thanks, stalkers of the world!) and even the decision to meet for something as innocuous as a cup of coffee will usually merit careful consideration and probably a consultation with girlfriends before any action is taken. I consider all of this to be part and parcel to the actual adult dance that must take place before sexual intimacy can even be considered.

So, why don't we all step back, relax and realize that it doesn't have to be a junior high dance. We're all past that point, I hope. We should be able to converse electronically within the bounds of good taste mutual respect for one another through a few introductory emails and agree to meet (or not) based upon the ladies' responses. We all know that the women will determine based upon the first meeting whether or not others will follow.

This makes sense to me, unless, of course, we're all just here to play with our computers, in which case, I surrender. I'll just take my shoes off and slide up and down the basketball floor in front of the girls with everyone else...but not for long.

"...iambic pentameter just to get a date are a tad pathetic and usually posing."

I absolutely take offense to this statement. If a man even knows what Iambic pentameter is he has half the battle won. The fact that he can write effective metrical poetry or prose to get a date is something you, old man, perhaps have failed to do. It isn't posing, it is what artists do. Women fall for artists as a general rule and that isn't by mistake.

and this:

"and they won't make their choices based solely upon the caliber of our prose, the size of our penises, or our claims to real or imagined sexual prowess."

All I can say is join the 21st. century, dude. Have you ever kissed a girl with a lip ring? Or had a blow job from a girl with a tongue piercing? Perhaps you should find a site called senioradultmatchmaker.com. You seem to be way out of touch.

just my thoughts...
