Art,

Thanks for the kind words but you may have sparked off another thread.

TRANATLANTIC MISUNDERSTANDING

Of course I would never dream of wearing a toilet bowel on my penis - especially if I wanted to stand (no pun intended) any chance of having sex with anything except for that rare person with a plumbing fetish.
But on this side of the Atlantic we would consider it more than odd for someone to urinate (or worse) into a condom.

Also, I am sure the gay liberation groups in North America would be quite upset to hear that Irish and even British people still set fire to fags and smoke them in public - having purchased a packet of twenty in a local store. Similarly, we find the Americans obsession with civil rigths for cigarettes at least quaint if not completely bizarre.

And those US TV programmes and films where the gentleman says to the lady;
- "Can I give you a RIDE" -
Well on this side of the Atlantic, no gentleman would ever dream of being so blunt and crude to a lady. We are much more self effacing - we might say - "I suppose a ride is out of the question? - and we would still probably get a slap in the kisser.

The wierd but wonderful world of words.
