Fine you want controversial...you got it. How about a new restaurant that partners with an abortion clinic to serve aborted fetus omlets as a delicacy to the rich?

How's that for controversial? Thankfully this was not my idea. It was the sick (hopefully) joke that some guy I know came up with. Note: I didn't say some friend of mine.

How about a song.

I am really getting into songs lately.

Take me now baby here as I am
Pull me close try and understand
Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe
Love is a banquet on which I feed

Have I dought when I'm alone
Love is a ring, the telephone
Love is a angel disguised as lust
Here in my bed til the morning comes

Come on now try and understand
The way I feel under your command
Come take my hand as the sun descends
And you can touch me now
Because the night belongs to lovers

Album: Easter
Band: Patti Smith Group
Written?: Smith / Springsteen

I'm in kinda a good mood, at the moment. My soul-crushing job has just ended, and I'm free. FREEEEE! Of course, fate seems to want to balance every possible yay with a $@#%@#$%@#$@%%@$%*%! experience, so instead of hopping into my car and driving away, it turned out my car was about as mobile as an extremely nimble dead thing. So that left me a dozen or so clicks away from home, in the dead of night.
Without access to any phones.
Damn it...
Well, after kicking the ever living hell out of a plastic bottle in a rare bout of rage, I managed to run down a coworker as he was leaving. Of course, he had to fetch his cables to give me a boost.

Well, that's over and done with. Back to wherever it is I go from here.

As an imponderable- What would you do if you discovered a friend (female, in my case) was being short changed sexually?
A young woman working in the same building as I do admitted to me that she never had an orgasm. She's only 19, and hasn't been active very long, but in 7 months, she hasn't had one. Hell, until talking to me, she didn't even realize she was missing out. I ended up spending most of the day (my last, coincidentally) telling her some of the obviously overlooked facts of life. The situation boggled my mind. Cripes, that made me feel old, having to tell her those things. I'm only 2 years older than she is...

Has this situation ever occured to you (as the unfortunate), or around you (as the surprised onlooker)?

In response to bigwolf:

The song? I dunno. But because i'm not entirely sure if you come by often, maybe you mean the thread. At this point, this thread is the 'i'm bored and need entertainment' thread...

Usually we talk about various gender things, in relationships and stuff, and we have a pretty good male/female/ split.

And if you meant this board, it's a fan based board here to help promote firefly and keep its fans in contact n stuff.

And if you meant this planet, it's a big ball of rock with a rich, creamy, molten center, that has people and animals living all over it, and they occassionally blow each other up or eat pineapples.

And if you meant this universe/plane of existance... I can't help you, start a meaning of life thread.

You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.

Back!
CK, I've been reading a few books lately, one called "The Paleo Diet" and another called, I think, "More Natural Cures Revealed". Not saying for sure they'd help you out, but I think I remember running across a few things about auto immune disorders and other disorders that can be effected a lot by diet, so you might want to look at those and see if you can change your eating habits and maybe have fewer problems. Just a thought. Since the western medicine and doctors aren't working, you know. That's when my mom always says she needs to take matters into her own hands. It's worked for her; changing her diet has almost completely eliminated her lung problem (she was pre-ashmatic) and she's very happy.
If I found out a female friend of mine was being sexually short-changed, I would say two things needed to change: her attitude and the attitude of her man. And if his attitude wouldn't change, then she needed a different man.
But yes I did say her attitude would need to change, too. Some women are so passive with pleasure, and don't understand that they need to experience and relish it themselves. So many think it's something being done to them (men think this way too; that they're doing everything) rather than something they experience. I recommend heartless-bitches.com for any man or woman who needs to get a clue. Also at one point, far far back in imponderable history, I wrote a little blurb on how I'm able to have upwards of 20 orgasms. I still have it saved at home, but I'm at work right now.
Yes, I do have a friend who, as far as I know, has never had an orgasm. But there are deeply rooted issues tied to that and I don't wanna go into it. I've talked to her about it a lot, but... Yeah, not going into it.
Ok, time to go check in with the Forsaken.

Alright, I think I have a question (I don't think I've posted an imponderable for about 4 or 5 generations). I read this article on IGN:

http://gear.ign.com/articles/723/723296p1.html

This product got me imponderable-ing. I'd be curious to hear women's input on this little device that makes your music more...stimulating (gives the song "Good Vibrations" a whole new meaning). I mean I've heard stories about girls and video game controllers that vibrate, but I think those are just isolated cases. Could the iPod vibrator be a hit? I don't know if I'll ever look at a girl listening to her iPod on the quad the same way, ever again...

"The art of not being there" is fon du la (I have no idea if I'm spelling that right) and samsara is what you were saying it was; a block to nirvana.

As for the ipod thing, that disturbs me. If it does what it's implying, it just shocks me how low companies will go to sell things.

It's sort of a market trend, the more desperate companies get, the more they play to the most basic human impulses. In this case, sex. In the case of, lets say reality shows, it's that laughiing-at-others thing (something like that, hard to pinpoint).... Stupid society.

Mags, had no idea of your age until yesterday (not that I took notice ).
Not too much to say at the moment. Left home angry. Does anyone else here have a problem being right ninety percent of the time and realizing that those who are wrong will never take heed of your warnings. I can't stand being right.

Hey NVGR! I never take any notice of my age either

Seriously though I was reading this and thinking that it’s so true – it’s so hard to be ‘gracious’ when you know the answer or have the experience or have knowledge that will benefit the other person, but they just don’ want to know! My bugbear is that my boss never admits she’s wrong, nor that I am often right! Not always, but pretty often! Gets me down that! I read about the rest of the saga too… you certainly are in a tough place right now… don’t think I have any pearls of wisdom for you, just hand in there and remember that not everything will be within your power to control. It’s always terrible when there are kids involved and I totally understand your frustration. I also wanted to say a huge “GOOD ON YOU” for taking time off from the alcohol – I have done that from time to time – you get pretty used to drinking when you work in the theatre! I don’t think alcohol is my problem but I have other ‘crutches’ which I am trying to take a break from… it’s never easy – but in making that choice you already have the upper hand!

Although John Cusack is the personification of cute *sigh* you really don’t want to do that – coz he’s got more wrinkles than you!

Oh and I must say that you can vent any time you like too… sometimes it is helpful to others to put their problems aside for a moment and help someone else… in other words we all need to be needed occasionally!

I also suffer from insomnia – and can sleep for 14 hours straight from sheer exhaustion but will spend the next week up all night reading, pacing the floor, staying on FFF.net for way too long

I am determined to get it in check, but it’s not easy! Another

Life, the universe and everything is worth it just to eat ripe, sweet pineapples!

Hey JamestheDark - Yay on finishing yur soul destroying job - good luck with whatever comes your way next! I am glad that your friend spoke with you - and that you took her seriously! When I was at High School I though sex = orgasm, which is obviously NOT the case! I was fortunate that my first 'all the way' boyfriend knew what he was doing (judging by the look of his ex she might have been a prostitute! She certainly taught him a few tricks!

) so I pretty much had orgasms from the start of my sex life! (Lucky me!) A more recent boyfriend had very little experience and I was trying to teach him things without giving him a complex about how 'inexperienced' he was... not a total success... so I never had an orgasm with him unless it was oral... (TMI??

) It works both ways I'm sure - sometimes it's the girl not knowing what she's missing out on, sometimes it's the guy not knowing the ways to succeed with a woman... sometimes it's insecurity and the pressure to perform getting the better of one or the other...

Now, that leads us to the OhMiBod! I thought Good Grief what next? But then I remembered that I have a favourite song that always makes me think of the best sex I ever had - long and slow (bit like Mal & Nandi *sigh*) 'Learning to Fly' by Pink Floyd - now that would tempt me... I think!

Whew - much catching up! I guess I didn't lurk for long, it's hard to do with this thread. I get sucked right in - there goes the work productivity (as if I had any

)

Thanks for the gift ideas! I'm a fan of the plasma TV,

but I'd have to win the lottery (and fund a new season of FF) first.

I think I'm going with dark chocolate and red wine. He did mention, more than once, how he likes dark chocolate. CDs are great, but I don't know his taste in music yet.

So, I'm just wondering - guys, do you like getting flowers? I love getting flowers, how I see them for days as a reminder of the date. In an ideal gender equal world, the gesture could go both ways. But, as it is, is it too awkward for your tough, masculine selves to get flowers from a woman? Maybe not frilly flowers. Big weird exotic flowers.

James the Dark - congrats on the freedom! That's awesome! And I'm glad you set your friend straight. That's the best thing to do - just let her know there's a problem. PR is right - it's her attitude that's the most important. She has to set a certain level of standards and stick to them! I've been where she is, and it's hard to speak up when you're thinking sex is done to you, instead of knowing you can be active. (Which I find men really like!) So the encouragement helps!

JPstargazer - I'm just laughing over that iPod vibe! Good lord, what will they think next? Though - I don't think it'd be the most effective, but I have to admit to a little curiousity... I loooove music, and combining music and sex? hmmm.

Edit: speaking of this iPod thing - Zeek, when you mentioned toys as a gift, guess which kind of toy I thought of first? Yep, that's where my mind is, LOL!

How well do you know the person? How certain are you of the affair?

If the answers to those two questions are Very well and very certain...I would tell. One of the worst things seems to be the 'everyone knew but me?' sentiment. Makes us feel stupid and foolish.

But I would do some probing first. Are there any clues that friend already suspects? Are they completely oblivious? Probing questions, if down well and not heavy handedly, will let you know how to approach the subject...or whether you should at all. People won't believe until they are ready to and a friendship can easily be ruined by broaching this topic if denial is the name of the game, but I still think it's important to share the info.

It's a great question. I hate getting in the middle of other people's relationships. For instance the friend I talked about who is talking to an ex about their chances of getting back together while still seeing her current bf. I'm not going to say a word to the current bf. A.) I'm more her friend than his B.) it's not technically cheating C.) he's the moron who knew she was going to meet up with her ex and didn't push to go along.

I also have another couple friends who are in a bad relationship IMO. He's not ready to settle down. She's constantly trying to get him to be more mature. Everyone assumes he's cheating on her. He's got a mostly travel job and is never around. Would make it really easy for him if he wanted to. Plus he was with her when I first met him and she hadn't moved to town yet (still at college). He sure seemed to be awful friendly with the ladies back then too. I have no concrete proof of cheating. Even if I did, I don't think I'd get involved. Something tells me that she's fooling herself. I'm not going to try to break the illusion for her. Cause I'm sure it wouldn't be appreciated.

I think it's also a case of who am I better friends with. The cheater or the cheated on. If it's the cheater then I won't do anything but try to convince them to break it off. If it's the cheated on then I can tell them. I feel like I'd have to be loyal to my real friend.

There is no pretty floral bonnet that will transform you to womanliness(seriously don't think this is a word, but it was fun to make up)

I think I'd tell the person who was being cheated on because they need to know. If they want to stay in denial, fine, but at least when it all blows up you aren't the person they are looking at saying "why didn't you tell me"

Still chuckling on that one.

As for the friend issue, goes right alon with being right and not saying anything. Some folks sure make it out to bein' your fault their SO cheated on them.

"Yeah, he did it willingly at gunpoint. I told him to do or die. And then I coerced him into denying everything."

This happened. After I told a female friends SO to tell her or I would. Then for my trouble he picks a fight with me in front of her denying everything. Next time I'll kick the dudes ass first and explain later.

Now, I need to return to searching for a pretty floral bonnet.

Never did understand the womens size of anything.

ADD: Think I'm out for the day. Not feeling great and I gotta find some cash for bills and the like. Catch y'all later.

um...I'd advise against flowers as a gift for guys. I know plenty who would think it means you think they're girlie. Could send a bad signal.

Did anyone see that movie the guy who played The Operative was in? A British movie called Kinky Boots, or possible Sexy Boots, I can't remember. Anyway, it was about a shoe factory that was closing down and The Operative, who was a transvestite, convinced them to change their market to sexy boots for men who dress as women. It was a really funny movie, kinda shmaltsy, and The Operative was brilliant.

Just happened to catch up before leaving. Never seen it, but sounds interesting, (and a bit odd).

I still want flowers, no matter how girlie it may sound.

Okay, now I'm out.

Hugs all around.

Yeah... I think I'll wait till we know eachother better, and he'll know it's just my own little way of being affectionate. I like breaking the rules.

Kinda like NV. I know a store in Boston that has the best pink boots with super high heels, and I'm sure they get to men's 16. I'll pick some for you next time I visit there!

I am trying to figure out what men's 16 boots would look like. My husband wears a 13 and his feet are massive...my holy hannah NV you must have HUGE feet! WOW...I can fit both my feet into one of my husband's shoes( I wear a 6 1/2, goes with being 5'2" thought I would dearly love to grow up enough to be in adults sizes)

I choose to rise instead of fall- U2

But why? Shoes always look so marvelous on display, then they bring out the size 10s and they're like boats!

Besides - I actually saw a "physics of dance" talk (seriously - a physics prof and his ballerina daughter!) that proved that big feet make it harder to do fast little jumps. That's my excuse for sucking at them, and I'm sticking to it!

He was also in a film out for rental called, The Inside Man. He's great in that, too.
