Yeah, Shambles. 1066 has always been a favorite of mine.

Funny thing, Kelida - a friend of mine and I were talking about this kind of thing a few days ago. (He and I are both in our early fifties.) He said, "Yes, there was a time when getting into a woman's pants was the driving force in my life. Now the desire is still there; but the imperative has faded."

There were times in my life when putting notches on the bedpost might have been really important - well, let's be real here: it would have been damned important! But respecting the wishes of the women I dated was even more important to me. And I am quite sure that there were some, who, if I had been just a little more persistent, would have been persuaded to "give o'er". I know for certain that there are guys out there who can respect your wishes, Kelida and who will be at least equally intent upon getting to know what is in your heart as well as knowing how you might feel between the sheets.

And, yes, I agree that there seems to be the makings for a song here. Perhaps as you read this thread you'll be moved to write one.
