RE: First place you ever consumated "the deed"

At night in an overgrown pathway beside a raiway line, trying to avoid the stinging nettles. A teenage boy who did not know what he was doing but felt such a strong urge to do it. A teenage girl who felt she ought to say no but just kept helping him to do it. NOT RECOMMENDED - but memorable.

RE: Do people in their 60's still get the urge?

To return to your original question, I can verify as a 65 year old myself that men in their 60s can most definitely get it on and indeed get it up.

Just because a man reaches his 60s does not stop him being a normal man. The only thing that gets in the way of getting really hard is some other underlying health problem - but that can happen to anyone at any age. In any case, if you like this professor remember that making love is about much more than how hard the man gets. Think of all those extra years of experience that you would be benefiting from.

I suggest that you return his glances of desire and find out what sort of relationship you can have with him.

Good luck.

RE: Poetry Lines

I wondered thinking out aloud
When wandering lonely as a cloud
If all around would think me mad
For telling all those thoughts I had
About the wondrous sensual shape
That caused me in such awe to gape!

RE: Poetry Lines

When in bed
It's not what's said
When hands explore
But rather more
What skills and passion
Give satisfaction

RE: Age limit women = 45???

That is just totally ridiculous. Don't waste your time with him. I would have you any day!!

RE: THE DIFFERENCE WHEN YOU MARRY A CANADIAN GIRL

Yes, the old ones are the best - and as a 65 year old I can say that with some authority!

PS I love Canada

RE: I don't believe in "atheists," can anybody prove "atheists" exist?

I am amazed that this non-question has generated 44 pages of responses. To ask for a proof that atheists exist is about as sensible as asking for a proof that emptiness exists.

Atheism is a position which rejects theism so if you describe yourself as an atheist you are merely saying that you do not accept the validity of 'belief in God'. It is not a view which needs justification or proof, it is a simple statement which states your view and so in that sense it exists.

Atheism is not a belief system but a refusal to accept any of the stated belief systems, such as Christianity or Islam. It exists in the sense that I have stated it but not in any other sense.

RE: What was your first ever music purchase?

'Chapel of Love' by the Dixie Cups - in about 1960, I think. Yes, some dinosaurs are computer literate!!

RE: Does Age Matter? Do May December Romances Work?

A colleague of mine aged 45 lives with his girlfriend aged 25 and they are very happy. It all depends on how both you and the girl feel about it. There is no external reason why it should not work if you both want it to. An age gap of 20 years is perfectly ok between early 40s and early 20s.

I feel very much at ease with women who are a lot younger than me - but I still live in hope at the age of 64.

RE: Math Test

I hope everyone liked the same film because the arithmetical process described will always end up at the number 9.

Let me know if you would like to know why and I will post a proof.

RE: Banning the Burqa in France

I could not disagree more. It is quite the opposite. Liberty only exists when people acting together are willing to stand up and protect it. That may well and probably does involve accepting some restrictions on our complete freedom to do what we like.

Of course, we would all reject unnecessary restrictions but, in difficult or dangerous times, some restrictions may well be very necessary.

We all accept some restrictions already, e.g. speed limits, limits on anti-social behaviour, etc., in order to ensure the smooth organisation of society.

RE: Banning the Burqa in France

Three points:

1. Most moderate muslims will confirm that the wearing of the burka (there is more than one recognised spelling!) is NOT a religious requirement. It is a cultural practice in some but not all muslim countries. Anyone who goes to live in a different country must be willing to adopt the culture and practices of that country. For example, if I went to live in Afghanistan, I would expect to adopt the accepted respectful standards of behaviour shown by men of my age and situation towards men and women. If I should not feel able to do that, then that would be a problem for me to address - I would have no right to expect the local people to change their ways to suit me.

2. At a time when the lives of ordinary citizens in Europe are under increasing threat from those who intend to destabilise everyday life for political purposes, it is the responsibility of ALL citizens to be willing to accept some restrictions on their behaviour. That applies to newcomers as well as established citizens. Without that co-operation, the threat to our way of life will never be removed. We should have enough confidence and belief in our culture to want to preserve it, not let it get taken over.

3. Has anyone asked the Afghan women living in Europe if they would like the choice as to whether they wear the burka or not? Are there any burka-wearing women reading these posts who would like to reply? We might be able to have a less emotive debate if we knew their views.

RE: They just won't quit

The name Mariya is irrelevant. At any one time, there are millions of identical messages floating around the internet with maybe slightly different names. It is quite possible to get completely identical messages from supposedly different people on the same day. DO NOT REPLY because that confirms that your email account is live and that you are reading it. You would then get flooded with targetted junk and unwelcome emails of all types.

Either completely ignore the message or block it. Blocking will not save you from other messages as the scammers send out millions of such messages every day.

Identifying and ignoring such messages is just a fact of life these days on the internet.

RE: The English language....or any other, as a matter of fact

I completely agree with you. Words are not only for basic communication, they also express subtlety, nuance and feeling. One of the reasons that the English language has become a world language is its power to express shades of meaning. No two words express exactly the same idea. Many messages on here are inarticulate to put it politely - although to be honest there are some sites where it is even worse.

I think that the kindest response to the question you asked is that most errors are lack of care.
