And, for the life of me I cannot figure out what guys would care to discuss girdles and Brazilian wax and Speedos and leg hair in the context of Fashion and Beauty. I'll I can conclude is that I have stumbled into a gays only forum (not that there is anything wrong with gays) and didn't know it.
the code and rules of men means as you have witnessed, lots of divorces.

I doubt that personal loyalty to male friends is a cause of divorce. Two factors occur to me: changed circumstances, and dishonesty. I suppose a few of my bachelor parties were contributing factors.

Believe it or not, some men actually want to know about this stuff - even if they never plan on doing it. I think it's a natural outcropping of human curiosity.

It's actually easier to go to an anonymous forum and ask a bunch of strangers these odd questions than to ask your buddies over beer and hoops at the local sports bar or to heaven forbid ask the person you're sleeping with

Oh, you got that right. If someone is watching the game on TV on a bar stool and asks someone if he thought a girdle would make for a better look, it had better be a gay bar.

Why do people always say that? That has to be one of the most overused terms in society.

It's very popular with Christian homophobes.

I really hope you treat your wife with more respect than you seem to appear to have for the Women that post here. Some of your comments have been really misogynistic.

You don't have a sense of humor. Aren't you aware that the reference for that expression is the Seinfeld show? It a pimp on the politically correct crowd that is afraid to talk openly about homosexuals without qualifying themselves as gay tolerant.

I don't care if you think I'm gay tolerant, or gay, or a Christian homophobe. I could call you an anti-semetic bigot and have as much information on the subject as you calling me a Christian homophobe. I said the expression as sarcasm toward those who are scared to death someone might think them intolerant. Again, I don't care what you think. You just missed the humor.
