Bad breakups, sudden inexplicable psychoses, menstruation. One out of ten men have extreme difficulty coping with these phenomena of the female gender. They are gripped by a sudden debilitating condition known as femiphobia. To them a day at the beach sunning among bikinied beauties with bare skin and semi-exposed breasts is worse than a nightmare of pursuit by knife-wielding nurses at a castration clinic. What can you do to help? If you're a girl: walk up to him, softly caress his cheek, take his hand, wrap your arms around him, search for his lips with yours and plant a gentle kiss on them. After a few repetitions the fear will have magically vanished. If you're a guy: walk up to him, softly caress his cheek, and so on. After a few repetitions there will be no more fears...

Good one, Indie. Very funny photo, too.
I have a new site I'm linking this to.

Rust: To be honest, I don't know. But how many of us have really had the experience?

Mrs. Weirsdo: What? Another new site? I already linked to one new site of yours this week! Glad you liked the story.

My first response to your second sentence was "so now 90% of us are gay?"

Indeterminacy said...

Doug: The question is: What was your second response to the first sentence!

Hmmm. I had a girl just lean over and kiss me as I was walking through a bar. I will say that it shook every other thought from my head at the time... even the grumpy crabby ones. You may be onto something here. Can I say that you've given me permission to go out and kiss all the guys? Please? =)

Livewire: Go for it! But give me about five hours head start to get to where you are ;-)

Now, see, when I saw that pic the first thing that popped into my head was an old commercial line: "Does she or doesn't she? Only her hairdresser knows for sure."

Little Bar! I warned you not to read today's story. Buit I am glad I inspired you to say something besides, "Devil, get thee out!" I promise not to take any liberties while you're fainted.

In which case, I'll see what's in Little Bar's pockets. [rummaging] Two pennies, John Birch membership card, used fruit-flavored condom, multicolored lint, cocktail napkin with a phone number, one linty cherry Sucret, Cross In My Pocket card, half a shoestring.

Thanks for the story, Indie...

Fun story and picture.

I think the fellow in the picture needs a t-shirt that says, "Sorry, girls, I'm gay!"

AP3 The shirt in question says: "Let's get one thing straight -- I'm not."
