FW: : male libido banter

[Guest guest]

Quantie and list: I've been sending this message to the main list and can't

seem to get it posted there. A New Year's glitch? (And we thought the Y2K

bug would cause problems!!) So I'm posting it on the support list as

Quantie is a member, as well as sending it to him personally.

Because the men, and now some women on the support list

( ) have linked it to the

start of being on CR and not to anything before that in their lives. That's

good enough for me.

You are reading much more into my use of the word " promiscuous " than is

there. It means simply: sexual behavior with more than one partner. I am

non-judgemental on this issue for others (except if they're lying to their

mates - not very nice). I even said: if you want multiple partners,

find someone who thinks the same and everyone's happy. Does that sound like

someone who's making a judgement call? Before you launch a counter-attack,

make sure you were indeed attacked! You weren't!

> it's nonsense to argue that promiscuity is some nutty fringe behaviour.

And Quantie, just WHERE did you read THAT in my post...hmmm?

I think we're getting way off topic here and away from the original

discussion of CR and lack of libido. Of course sex (and all it's facets) is

interesting, but most of it has nothing to do with CR.
