Male and Female Imponderables--Soft, What Light... by Tristan

So, how 'bout y'all.
Is commando really wrong?
If so, then why?
Just curious.

Penguin, nice icons!

NVG, as in "going commando"? If so, there is nothing wrong with it at all...unless the unthinkable occurs, and you get trapped behind your desk...

Totally depends on what you're wearing. I knew a couple of guys in high school who went commando pretty much all the time. All well and good until it came to the marching band uniforms. Those uniforms get reused every year! Ewwww.

And, usually, the only time I go commando is when I am wearing my kilt.

Commando? No thanks...those zippers look like they could really hurt. Plus it just seems like jeans would be too rough down there. I don't need that kind of pain.

umm I think shorts on is preferable... I mean it's probably safer at least:) Mind you considering how little fabric is involved in women's underwear we're all practically going commando:) I swear there's probably less fabric in my knickers than a bandaid.

Ah, let's reverse this a bit...any females in here like going "commando"? See, y'all have the benefit of shock value when that happens...wait until you are in a crowded room with your SO, lean over and whisper into his ear "By the way, I'm not wearing any underwear" and watch what happens. IQ drops to zero, the brain short-circuits...it has happened to me, and is quite a shock. Loved it, though!

MSG, now...see...that IS evil! I'd be willing to bet your SO has no idea what the movie was about to this day!

And yes, lingerie is frosting. I like it, for the most part, but not all the what I call "slutty" stuff...crotchless, feathers, etc. I like lingerie to be lacy and less revealing. Part of the wonder is in what is NOT shown. Am I alone in this feeling, gentlemen?

Okay, I do like the frosting. Like frosting alot. Mostly the accentuation by certain styles and colors. But I have to say that jeans get that true painted on look with none.

Paint remover! Almost wet myself. Have to remember that for later. Always loved almost any type of undies a woman could throw at me. Sometimes they never even had to come off.
I am jealous though. A guy has limited things he can do.

Think I'll start a costume collection.

Oh, MSG, you were really messing with him. Take him to a kiddie movie and then come out with the spice. You were walking the line with perfection!

Edit cause I left out some: Used to think commando was sort of gross, but like MSG said, with the state of underwear these days, might as well. It'd be cheaper in the very least. What the heck is up with $14 for three strings and a tiny triangle of fabric anyway? Sadly, I'm a sucker for pretty little things, so....

ok, reposted here from the last thread, as Tristan made the new thread while I was typing.

- Way back up there, the comment about sex drives kicking in - was meant in a light hearted facetious manner.

In my (albeit non too broad) experience, with teen boys the hormones hit hard and fast - to the point where you mention something as inoccuous as (water) jugs and half the poor things can't stand up.

And theres no such bloody thing as 'crude sexual desires' (I long for the day when the churchs grip slips once and for all from the supposedly secular culture) it's simply all part of the healthy libido - something which everyone needs, or we'd never have existed. Yes, you are underage, but thats where self restraint and good judgement comes in. Everything else is natural pure candy for the minds eye.

Stop repressing it or you'll give yourself issues in later life.

(unless you fantasise about hamsters or something, then repress away)

Eurgh. New angle on the kiddies debate - I was reading today that for our economy to remain viable, (what with old folk continuing to coffin doge for ridiculous abounts of time and women choosing lives and careers over babies) every woman would have to have at least three children.
The french are already planning to pay women to stay home and breed, and britain is looking at similar schemes. (subsidise childcare would be the simple solution)
Discuss all the implications of that one. -

In much more fun news! I gots new shoes! their like little ballet alippers, so they are uber comfortable, and have a little drw string to pull them tight onto your foot so they fit perfect. And they are peachy blush glitter! Sparkly glittery loveliness! I'm a happy bunny!

Which gives me an ew subject -Shoes, I know many women who would choose a new pair of shoes, or even a new handbag, over the chance to sleep with a cute guy (sleep with, not have a relationship with) Why do you think this is?
And guys, is there anything you would rather have than a roll in the hay?

and btw, my list, which any future SO would be required to accept goes something like - Trent Reznor, John Cusack, Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman.

And Brendan Fraser as a bonus, but only if he's wearing the butt flap.

I don't include the Firefly guys in these lists - All of the ones on it are just bodies that i find attractive. With the F men, knowing the show and about the actors so much, i'm forced to recognise them as people and therefore can't see them as sex objects. If i met any of the guys on the list then iprobably wouldn't actually do anything but chat, and then strike them from the list 'cause they were more like friends.
Sad in someways, but my fantasy life is a rich one!

Your robot reminds me of you. You tell it to turn it stops. You tell it to stop it turns. You ask it to take out the garbage it watches reruns of Firefly.

Seryn- as a woman with 56 pairs of shoes currently in the closet( there are quite a few more downstairs) and 32 purses...shoes last longer and I don't really know why they induce a lust level frenzy with me... they just do. I can see shoes and go utterly mad:)plus I'm tiny and short so I need something to elevate me from cute to sexy and my shoes seem to do the trick. From my knee high, so tight they look painted, 4 inch heeled boots to my newest 4 inch tiny red snakeskin strappy sandals shoes make me feel like I can turn heads not just get pats on mine:)
Oh and congrats on the cute shoes...ain't nothin better!

This is very interesting to me, because all the guys on my list are there exactly BECAUSE I like who they seem to be as people. Granted, I only know the bits they allow to be known, but they are bits that I like. They aren't just bodies I want to have my way with. If that were the case the list would be completely different. I think Brad Pitt would have to be the top cause that boy's just hot, hot, hot.

Rugbug- me too it's all personality ( bad bad bad boy personality) but if it were looks only...umm I actually can't think of anyone I'd sleep with just on looks... kinda broken in that sense. I can't lust on a visual basis...oh but I can on a voice basis. If I never had to look at him I would so sleep with Tim Curry. His voice gives me shivers:) His face, sadly, gives me the willies:)

The only time I ever went commando was as a result of an unfortunate accident involving a caustic acid. While I did have spare cloths to complete the day with, it was an experience I don't feel like repeating.
And, if you ever catch yourself wondering, acid burns hurt like all hell.

For the celebrity list, it's mostly full of obscure celebrities.
1st: Summer Glau. I mean, really. She's a dancer!
2nd: Andrea Spinks. British model. 5'2, with short brown hair. Yummy.
3rd: Kandyse McClure. Like a good cup of tea; sweet, hot, and black.

And those are the only ones I can remember off-hand...

What is it with women and shoes, if I might ask?

Voices can be so amazing. I'd have to go with Morgan Freeman or Anthony Hopkins if that were the deciding factor.

Shoes? Love them but won't spend the money on them. I just can't justify it when I only wear the same 3 pairs 98% of the time. If I had to choose between a guiltless shoe shopping spree and sex, I would choose the shoes.

Rugbug- you don't have to wear them...just to know you could wear them...and the other 2% makes it worth it!

Socks. I had about... well, at least one half of a washload of socks that recently disappeared. I can never have too many socks. Not that they are pretty, but they are pretty important.

Wow, haven't posted on the imponderables threads in a while. Anyways, I think there's something to be said about electronic/computer equipment. It seems, as a guy, that we seem to have some built-in advantage when operating said equipment. Not trying to be sexist, as women are very smart and perfectly capable, but just an observation/generallization. Maybe the "instinct" in men is just because we get drawn in by this stuff, and it's a matter of pride being able to set something up without the directions...where as women are smart enough to trick a guy into doing it for them! Actually, I think it's kinda cute when a girl is like "how do I work this?" and I have to help...makes me feel special, while all along, she probably knew how to do it anyways. I feel so used...not really.

Hrmmmm, I've got a lot of socks, but what I have WAY too many of is underwear. Good god, my drawer is so full...and most of them don't take up much space so that really means there are a lot. I could go more than four months without doing that type of laundry and still have some cleans ones left.

And I used to have 14 sets of sheets. And 5 duvets. I would pass up sex for new sheets/duvets, etc. I have a serious problem.

JPSTARGAZER: oh no...step away from the electronics. I LURVE putting things together and rarely consult the directions. I can hardly bear standing off to the side to let someone else do it for me. That's just torture. I'm usually the one that has to wire all the audio/visual equipment...and my neighbors used to bring me the vacuum when it broke so I could take it apart and fix it.

I mentioned before I have a hard time with 'helpless', right?

ok passing up sex for a duvet cover..you are a sick woman...grin. I know how you feel about underwear. I've put mine on rotation 1/2 the pairs in drawer and half in an under bed organizer..otherwise where would they all go. I tried sorting by type ( you know boy shorts, thongs, bikinis, etc.) but I wear different types depending on mood so I had to go with the two drawer system. I've given up sorting the other lingerie...too much to sort and at first he was fine with it, but as my lingerie has over take several of his drawers, my husband is no longer willing to give me more of his drawers so it's under bed organizers again..which is actually funny 'cause most of the underbed organizers are filled with books and when I go searching for a book it's ...not here...not here...full of corsets...not here..
I really need a bigger house!
EDIT- OMG I just read this post and it's like a TMI explosion. I am so tired my verbal filter has failed completely. I am going to the gym to see if I can summon enough energy to make some freakin sense...so sorry!!!

A woman after my own heart. Yeah, I often have to assume the "computer fix-it guy" title when any of my friends' or friends' parent's computers need some work. I do love setting up home theater stuff though. I guess that's why I'm a year away from an engineering degree...I tend to like anything technical.
