WyoWoman - excellent point that men could learn a few useful things about pleasing women from reading romance novels...you are right. Although there's a lot of silly stuff in romance novels, there is also a wealth of information about courtship and whatever it is that makes a woman feel beautiful, valuable, and appreciated.

Similarly, one could learn a lot by going to a few Julio Iglesias concerts or listening to his records. Say what you will, Julio has a real knack for pleasing women, and he's got a whole lot of class (aside from that rather silly song he and Willie Nelson teamed up on). Willie is no slouch either, by the way...women adore Willie Nelson and he adores them, although his style is very different from Julio's. I believe that's why they collaberated on the song...they are both masters of the art of romance...and they know it.

I'm gonna go and read some romance novels right now, by golly!

Of all the things a person could be in this life, I think to be a great lover (in a whole general sense...not just sex) has got to be one of the best possible uses of one's time that there is. Make love, not war.

Sure beats hell out of being a CEO.
