"Relive adolescence (the sex part)."

I was nga then. I'm nga now. I guess I am reliving the sex part. Could I relive the thinner and less creaky part instead?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Which isn't exactly a selling point. Except to a select population.

Where select population=guys? I thought that if men's sexual prime is 19, why wouldn't it have a general attraction?

What is even happening?

Stupid bush.
That's the first time I've seen that uncapitalized, since 2000.

Where select population=men with erectile disfunction of some kind. I don't generally consider 19 adolescence, though I suppose one could.

Well, the idea of reliving the sexual part of my adolescence is less horrifying than the idea of taking viagra or having my own erection that lasts hours. I don't feel any extra excluded.

I don't generally consider 19 adolescence, though I suppose one could.

I think it's borderline, but more importantly adolescence is closer to the male sexual peak than, say, being 30 or 50. Plus you can bag younger chicks, and older women still look sexy.

That's fine if "adolescence" evokes 19 for you. For me, it's more like 12 or 13, so kind of a stumper as a marketing tool.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Wasn't there someone (brenda maybe?) asking where to find the best burger in Chicago? If you go to the Chicago Tribune website today, they have an article on just that (it's set up like their photos, so I don't have a direct link--sorry!).

For me adolescence runs through the end of puberty. So definitely erection-filled if you're a boy. As I said -- adolescence doesn't evoke the age 19 for me. But it does evoke youth and near-boundless energy available for the arousal.'

eta: Googled:

In the United States, adolescence is generally considered to begin around age 13, and end around 24. By contrast, the World Health Organization (WHO) defines adolescence as the period of life between 10 and 20 years of age.

That's later than I was even thinking.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

ita, way back:

Debet, did you find out how The 4400 ended? Mine cut off too, just as the male agent walks offscreen.

No. But I'm off to hunt now, and if I do, I'll post it here.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Puh-huh? Says who?
