Friends with benefits.

Friends with benefits do not work. Ever! Doubt me? Here are the reasons why.

1. There is an expiry date. While this may work for both of you know, it will eventually get old. Not because you want the other person to be your significant other, but because as humans our natural inclination or focus is for some form of progress. A stagnant relationship based purely on sexual interaction will be fun and enjoyable until you hear about or see your peers enjoying real, grown up relationships.
   
2. One of you will break the deal. In any relationship of this nature, it is understood that this is a purely physical agreement, however, regardless of how many times this is reiterrated, one of the parties will break the deal and invite their emotions to the bedroom. This is not the type of threesome your partner was suggesting.
   


3. They never end well. Either for the reasons above or the one I'm about to mention, they never end well. Ultimately the friend with benefits is just a place holder, a seat filler, someone holding a spot in line. So when you do meet someone that you actually want to have a relationship with, or see a future with you end your arrangement with you friend. This will leave them upset, feeling cheated, disappointed that you didn't pick them.
   


4. Feelings could develop.That's very true, they could. Ed McMahon could bring a suitcase of money to you (instead of that stupid oversized sweepstakes cheque) and pigs could be the ultimate form of flight transportation in the future. Sorry excuse my scenism, but I'm a strong believer in self fulfilling prophecies. If I have in my mind that you're just a "toy" I'm going to think of you that way, it'll be hard for me to adjust my thinking to treat you like a true potential mate all of a sudden.
   


5. Sex is not enough. Although this is the cornerstone of this whole arrangement. It's not enough. One day your friend will say something that makes you question their intentions or is a complete turn off or you find disrespectful and you'll think to yourself, the sex just isn't worth it. As you mature, your priorities change, you may learn self control and you may realize sex is not a need but rather a want.

These are the reasons why I don't think these arrangements are such a good idea. What are your thoughts? Do you think friends with benefits can co-exist for an extended period? Is it ok to go on dates with your "friend"? Why was this ever thought to be a good idea?

Did you get the memo?

"Big girls need love too" (We've all heard this saying before.)

I strongly believe that some of the best and most giving lovers are the ones of the overweight variety. Well allow me to clarify and expand on that statement. Not just the overweight, but also the B-, the 7/10, the girl next doors, the librarians and the sort of cute girl from your office.

All those woman who are usually passed over in favour of the slim and sexy, can't take home to momma, 15/10, Grade A, librarian outfit wearing, "damn she's fine!" type girls.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure some of the supermodel types can throw down between the sheets, but I doubt it! I strongly believe that the majority will think that they're looks and beauty is "enough", that they don't need to do or say anymore.

On the other hand, the more "regular chicks" or "around the way girls", are much more accommodating, easy going and eager to please their mate, friend and lover. They know that they may not be the most physically attractive or most outgoing or attention grabbing, but they make up for it in any way they can. This should be applauded!

There's a lot to be said for someone who is eager to improve and excel in areas that they have control in rather than dwell on things they have no control over.

There's a lot less to be said for someone who is resistant to change, because they think they are perfect as they are and have no room for improvement.

So which would you prefer? Sexy and lazy? or Descent and eager?
Would you be ashamed to bring home that worker bee because she doesn't look like the queen bee?

Granted nothing that I've said is absolute, because there are some attractive woman who are great mothers, caregivers and even cooks. Oppositely, so too are there less than attractive woman who are terrible cooks, work mothers but think they're god's gift. So beware.

Maybe I'm wrong and the club or bar IS the best place to find your soulmate.

Am I the only one sick of the same old night life?

Clubs are full of makeup covered, perfume drenched over gel'd, sloppy drunk males and females.

Many of the women do not want to be approached, smiled at, or even within a few feet of the men. The men do not want to do anything other than approach, smile at and be within a few inches of the women.

The music is playing too loud for you to even clearly understand a person's name, "Candy? Sandy? Mandy? ohhh Denise", let alone have a real conversation. (I used to love loud music, all the time, I had a system in my car that used to set off car alarms as I drove down my street, seriously). So what does that leave, sexual and physical attraction ONLY.

Let me tell you when I was in my late teens and early 20s that was not more than enough, that was IT! "Me like her body" to which her reaction in my mind was "Me like his body" and from there it was all over except for the awkward morning after.

I know I've gotten older because that caveman mentality has faded. Don't get me wrong, I still have primal, animalistic attractions, desires and urges like anyone else, but there's got to be more to it, right?

Girls say, "I go to the club to dance and have fun with my friends." To which I must declare, BULLSHIT. Sure you dance amidst ogling the men and suggestive staring over at them with your come hither eyes, until one of them tries to talk to you and you tell them you're not interested, have a boyfriend or are married.

I used to wonder why, but then I figured it out, girls, love to feel like they can still attract a man, even if they are in a long term committed relationship or even lesbian for that matter. They just want to know that IF they were interested, they could have a man. We call that "ego-trippin'".

Men on the other hand, didn't just come out to dance or have a drink, well sometimes they just come out for a drink, but rarely. The only time you ever find me in one of these establishments is for a friends birthday or if I've been convinced and foolishly comply to the "Give it a try, it's not that bad, this place is really different, it's nice!"

I've always wondered if there are many stories at weddings or to children when asked, "How did you guys meet? or Where did you meet mum, dad? that start off with, "I was standing across the busy club and saw her standing on the bar shaking her goodies" or "She was standing in the kiddie bath tub in the middle of the bar water dripping from her body, as she raised the beer mug she had just won in the wet t-shirt content."

Bootleg Condoms?!?!

"China, the world’s fourth largest condom market is having a serious issue with counterfeit condoms being sold in the country.
The police have made four arrests at the factory which was distributing the illicit condoms. The biggest concern, of course, is the fact that the condoms can generate both pregnancy and diseases if used during intercourse. Authorities say there were bare-chested employees using vegetable oil to lubricate the condoms and putting them into fiber bags without any sterilization inside the central Hunan province based factory.
Since March, the factory has produced over two million condoms labeled as “Jisson, Durex. Rough Rider, Six Sense and Love Card.” The police are looking for as many as one million bootleg condoms which have already been distributed."

Really? Are condoms that expensive that they need to be bootlegged? Would you want to buy these bootleg condoms at a discount from the trunk of someone cars? It's not like a dvd that doesn't work and you throw it away or if you're real tight we the "dvd guy" exchange it next time. If your condom is defective, you're not in the best position.

Just Let Your Self Go!!!

Too Many people have too many insecurities about what they would and would not do.

JUST LET YOURSELF GO.

Too many people bite their tongues or hold back in the midst of an insulting action or remark.

JUST LET YOURSELF GO.

Too many people repress their sexual urges. What's the problem?

JUST LET YOURSELF GO.

Too many people want great things in life.

JUST LET YOURSELF GO.

This weekend we at The Two Grasshoppers challenge everyone to relax and let yourself go.

I'm just saying ...

Toni Braxton can still get it!

The 40 something year old Braxton, is the definition of a cougar.

Because everybody, loves ... chocolate.

Is it me ... or is this commercial about more than just Axe body spray?

Just a question.

I Love Cunnilingus

Why do guys front about giving oral?

I always found this topic interesting

and I finally have the chance to say

my piece on the whole issue.

I don't get what the big deal is in the

first place. Why do you feel like you

need to make it known that you don't

go down on us? That's nobody's business.

You're really not doing yourself any

favours by preaching your masculinity

364 days of the year and as soon as

Caribana Friday comes around, you're

down on Yonge Street whispering "I'd

like to lick you all over" to some female

you just met.

Now, I'm not saying that you need to go

out and put your head between every

females legs but come on; any smart

male in a serious relationship knows that

if you're willing to do the do that she will

be more than happy to fulfill your every

fantasy and then some. You think

you're being a man by pretending to stand

your ground on the topic but you're not. A

real man is confident in what he does and sets

the standard; he doesn't follow the norm.

So stop lying to yourselves. I saw you

trying to get between those thighs

Caribana weekend. And if you don't

want anyone to know, I suggest you

keep your opinions to yourself!
