In the interest of keeping Z-man hopping.....

Here are some observations, from the penile point of view.

Men understand men. Easy. Women understand men. They're very very simple. Women understand women. (Men have no clue how this happens) Men do not understand women, and women understand this. Makes sense. So in a sense, men have a bit of a disadvantage here.

Men have another disadvantage, and I think half of the guys out there already know where I'm going with this one. I was chatting recently with a young female (hey, don't get the wrong idea...she's a relative) who had recently broken up with the boyfriend. I felt sorry for her and was kinda wondering out loud whether she felt lonely and what her plan was. When she sensed my concern she perked up and said "Oh, don't worry about that. Guys are dime-a-dozen. I could go down to the grocery store right now and get another one in five minutes." Guys cannot say that. Guys work hard to get laid, and often jsut have to redouble their efforts to get the job done. Ladies.......need not.

(Gay guys please forgive me for this next observation. I'm totally supportive of gay marriage, etc., so please cut me some slack here. But I'm not going to beat around the bush. So to speak) Guys understand lesbians. Heck, women are soft, comforting, they smell good, fit in tight spaces, nice little voices, etc. They usually have charming qualities like a certain amount of submissiveness. What's not to like? So, guys understand why they like women, and why women would like women. What we have trouble with is why anyone would like men. They're stinky, overbearing, conceited, loud, etc. And they have this testosterone thing going on that cannot possibly do anything but get in the way. So ladies (and I know there are a very small number of you who are or may be reading), if it looks at times like we're totally shooting in the dark (again, no pun intended), we are.

I was totally flattered by a female recently (exceedingly easy and important to do this by the way, in case you ladies have not found this truth). She said she's really glad she's not a man. Men have lots of pressures, etc. She just does not envy men. Felt good to have my efforts validated.
