“Women can resist a man’s love, a man’s fame, a man’s personal appearance, and a man’s money, but they cannot resist a man’s tongue…”? Wilkie Collins, The Woman in White
If any man said that to me Galrads I'd ring for the men in white coats....only a total nutter would say something like that to anyone, much less a woman, and think it a compliment ::wow:
galrads: you are 100% wrong you always interpret my stuff 180 degrees differently. This is not something said. Now my complimentary thread is ruined.
So sorry Gal!!! Just looked for the quote and you didn't include a most crucial part which clarifies the meaning without possible double-entendre …
galrads: I would also go with this compliment....

With the bit in bold it's the full quote and of course it says what you meant … without the end of the quote it's a double entendre
It's true that we often don't seem to understand the meaning of what we share …
Sorry you think your thread is ruined … I think Tom helped a little with his comment
