Just checked the TV section of my local rag and Buffy is listed for 10:30PM next Tuesday
I made these points earlier, but fine, no one listens to me. Allan Lang "Previously 1: The Who Whating How With Huh?" Feb 3, 2003 6:07:05 pm EST
Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

'And on that tragic day, an era came to its inevitable end.'
That's all there is.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
the Kinsey report on American sexual attitudes in the 1940s reported something like 25% of men having experienced bestiality (almost all were farmboys unaware of the social taboo)
.....and I'm the only person whose jaw dropped at the fact that the farmboys didn't realise there was a social taboo involved?
And you can't think of Scotland and England of 1746 in today's terms. The split wasn't Scotland/England it was Highland/Lowland. An old dying way of life compaired to the new expanding one. A lot of the landowners had lands in both countries. Old loyalities and grudges between clans could decide whose side they fought on as much as anything else. But as usual religion was right in there in the mix. That's why the Stuarts lost the throne in the first place.
Yes. Yes. Yes. SO glad you said this, because I nearly sprained something in my efforts not to say this myself. Although I'd have been less eloquent.

Well, if you don't talk about sex, you don't know what's customary. That was part of what made the Kinsey report so scandalous -- it showed a lot of people that what they thought was outré was actually routine in many places.

Okay, I can see the logic in that. My eyes are still on stalks, but I do see the logic.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Y'know, if your sex partners are all of the four-legged variety, I'm not entirely sure talking would help here anyway.

I remember reading in college about this appalling study done on, I think, the Orkneys, where it became clear that female orgasm was damned near unknown, as was anything but male-superior sex. (The number of wives who'd ever had a husband put a month on their breast, for instance, was shockingly low.)

....a whole month? Holy cow, you Americans really do take foreplay seriously. Props to you.

Okay, a mouth. But I like your answer better.

Seriously, after the first week or so I think you'd be finding it a bit uncomfortable.

Strawberry disappointment.
FayJay: Thank you. it's the very first time I've been accused of eloquence.
BetsyHanesPerry: I believe it's just known as Orkney. I think the locals get upset at it being referred to as "the Orkneys".
