1. He's always been a riot. Remember "Dead Skunk in the Middle of the Road?
PS: She wants to be bi, not a lesbian.

4. Today's been a pretty good day, thank you for asking. I took my son to a
mini-powwow, which proved to be a dud, but as luck would have it, there was a very good car show right next door in the state park.

So we had a good time. And I was able to walk for an hour and a half without annoyiing my knee or hip.

A good day, indeed. Nice and cool with the convertible top down and the seat heaters on.

11. Lyrics, translated by yours truly...
If I were a woman I'd have to start by drawing
wide open the curtain of the virginal myth,
and the macho man.

If I were a woman I could publish
a thousand reasons for Don Juan's secret,
you would laugh till you cried.

If I were a woman, I would not be swayed by a fool with a car,
or background music and John Wayne pose.
And I would take pleasure in raping him.

And so, no equality,
death to the rapist, praise to infidelity,
I would want to taste that which they call our liberation,

If I were a woman, if I were a woman,
I would love myself
If I were a woman, I would not marry,
screw the support,
no pills; let him take them. And now that you know where I stand,
take me.

And so, no equality,
death to the rapist, praise to infidelity,
I would want to taste that which they call our liberation,

If I were a woman, if I were a woman,
I would have to love myself
And so, no equality, death to the rapist, praise to
infidelity, I would want to taste that which they call
our liberation,

repeats....

12. Those lyrics
Edited on Sun Oct-03-10 07:10 PM by hippywife
and the look on his face as he sings them make me very leary of him. He's trying too hard. :rofl:

He looks up and around a lot, like is anyone buying this? Do all you women want me now?

13. Do not judge a man from the 1970's by 2010 standards
Of course he's trying too hard.

Give the guy a break.

14. Me too
But I would probably be told, "You're a slut Submariner" for flashing my boobs at all the guys and gals. If I had them, I'd flaunt them. I don't understand why more women don't have the same outlook as me.

27. Thanks for another opportunity for a grammar snark.
It should be "I wish I WERE a Lesbian."
Look it up, Loudon.

32. If you listen to the song
he explains the grammar in the beginning where he tells about why he wrote the song.

31. I am really glad I am a lesbian.
Edited on Mon Oct-04-10 06:05 PM by cwydro
Actually.

And it is not about the tongue or how someone is hung.

I am just sayin'

I think most gay women would agree with me..that it is not even about sex.
