Well, crap. I knew that Blancho was cruising for a banning, what with his utterly serious support for homosexual genocide, but I'm still kind of disappointed that I missed so many of his posts while I was sleeping.
Can someone fill me in via PMs?
On-topic:
Not necessarily ... I've seen and read descriptions of maggots infesting dead flesh hosted within living flesh. Still, if that bothers you, remove that one description. She's no longer dead. Did that really make that big of a difference? It was one out of nine mental images I painted, I believe, and the woman in question has changed very little. I think I've still made my point.
No, no, and NO. This is the single greatest point that people keep going in circles over, and it's the thing that a lot of guys just can't seem to grasp.
The only option, in face of the ultimate disgust with the female alternative, is
NOT to say that "you're gay." For the Love of God, I don't know how many times this can be said, but a single act of homosexual sex is not going to convert you to lifelong homosexuality. The whole point of the exercise is to point out that you can have a one time boy-fling
WITHOUT being gay, particularly if it's only done because the alternative is
far worse.
And herein lies another point that you've conveniently made for me. It's not even about which would actually gross you out more, at this point ... you're more disturbed by the "principle" of sleeping with another man. You would literally rather DIE.
It wouldn't matter to you if it was possible to surgically alter Brad Pitt to look like Heidi Klum -- oh, if you weren't aware of it, you'd choose the Klum look-alike every time (and probably have a blast in the process), and come away with fond memories. If we informed you later, however, that Klum was Pitt in disguise, you'd be retroactively devastated, simply because you're deeply uncomfortable with
the idea of it. Your response, that you'd literally rather die knowing you stuck to your hetero guns, shows a psychological, societal root for your reaction ... not really a "Well, which would make peepee deflate less?" thing.
