I couldn't take the pill because it made me really ill. I guess it is up to the individual to decide what's best for them but I think IUDs are bad news because they cause infections and infertility (not in all women but it has been known to happen, especially with the older models).

A bit like when you've done the act and only afterwards realise that the guy (or girl) you're with has the AIDS virus?  I'd sooner be protected, no matter how small the protection.

Perhaps it would help you to know that 10% of men in Japan between 40 and 45 have never had sex either.

And then there's all the young men your age in very orthodox Islamic countries -

I'm 25 and have never had sex, never touched a girl in any meaningful way.


I bet you're not the only one on this forum that hadn't by that age, but I can't be sure. I obviously had sex before that age (considering I'm 22 and pregnant), but they say it's easier for girls to get laid than for guys. Also... in case you hadn't noticed, a lot of guys on this forum just don't notice it when a girl is interested in them, and hence miss a lot of opportunities. So you might in reality be super attractive but just never have noticed it. Smile

You could take the positive approach and just say that you're saving yourself for the right person, instead of being a *** (m/f) like so many other people. Smile And in case you hadn't noticed yet, tons of people haven't found the right person yet by age 25, so you're not behind on that one yet. Smile

If you were willing to sleep with just anyone, I can assure you that it shouldn't be that hard to find some girl that's desperate. I recommend against it though.

I hate when people talk about having sex; if I can't have it, why should they?


It's a part of life... and vastly overrated in western society. I'll admit it feels good, but imo it's definitely not worth the effort and risk to just go have sex with someone you don't know all that well. Talking to girls and reading stuff I've found that most had a rather lousy first time and plenty of lousy other times too...

But along the same lines, one could argue that people should keep their mouths shut about just about any topic... I don't have money so don't mention money... I don't have a college degree so don't mention college... on and on. There aren't many people on this planet that have everything... pretty much everybody is lacking something in their lives, and often more than one thing. You happen to be lacking a gf and a sex life. Accept it... it's not likely to be a permanent lack anyway.


Hi there,

If you were giving advice to another woman then I'd agree with everything you've said.  The problem is Batman55 is a man - sans bat.  Not sure where the 55 comes in.

I think this aspect of the gender gap hits them more than it hits us.  We probably only think about sex once or twice a day.  They think about it far more than that and have testosterone egging them on - which is kinda hard on a young man if they have a naturally high sex drive - don't you think?

IT'S A BIG THING FOR THESE GUYS!

You shouldn't try to put it on a female level.  No way.  Absolutely not.  We woman ask for some allowances for our gender, and this is one of the ways we can respect men and make allowances for something that is perfectly natural to them.  

I don't think any woman has the right to tell a man about how they should feel towards sex - the exception being a mature sex worker because she is a professional.  

I've met sex workers with a fairly profound understanding of the male psyche - and it's unfortunate that our cultural taboos restrict men from seeing these women, and restrict some very good women who know their psychology and their sex from being recognised for their talents.  Do you know how many woman work this way whilst getting themselves a degree?

Let's not get fooled by the taboos and the stereotyped image of these woman and their clients.  Most of these woman are down to earth, like sex, some are clever, some are dumb, some do drugs, some run a good house.  If the men are regulars then it's because the woman like them - treat them as friends and vice versa.  Sex workers can demand respect just like any other woman does...and believe me they get that!

And lady - they deserve it!

ps - I'm not a sex worker, but I've met a fewSmile

I think you should let your hair grow longer - it would look better.
Make up wouldn't be as fun.

I do try to get my hair washed at the barber shop and make sure it is a female that does the cutting.  Nice barber shop in the Latino neighborhood.  

I said the places was very simpaticas.  Given that the adjective references only women, my intent was clear.


Very clear indeed --  your intent is to exploit the women by getting crypto-sexual gratification from their touching you, thus turning them into involuntary sex-workers at a barber's wages.

Let's be honest about what's going on here: There's nothing wrong with a female barber washing a guy's hair. Just like there's nothing wrong with a kid sitting on the lap of a department store Santa. But if "Santa" is getting some level of sexual gratification from it, that's sick.

Do you inform them that you're using them? Do you tip them the $200 a good prostitute can charge?

Another triumph of christian hypocrisy.

You consider yourself too "good" to hire a sex-worker, yet you essentially manipulate a woman into being a non-consensual sex-worker by setting her up to unknowingly provide you with sexual gratification -- by your sexualizing her non-sexual touch. You think it's sinful to pay a sex-worker, but it's okay to create one against the woman's will.

You should get real and pay a sex-worker just to touch you. You can keep your virginity; she won't insist (believe me) on having actual sex with you. You can get the exact same thing you're getting from the barber, but it will be less exploitational (if not totally non-exploitational) and more honest. And get your haircut from a male.

Yes, the best haircut I got was from a gay male hairdresser. He was lovely - really friendly and use to sing around the shop. Sadly, he is is now gone.

I must admit to finding GuessWho's postings on the subject of not "getting any" to be rather pompous, farty and pratly. It has got to the point where it is just a waste of time and space to discuss with him.

I'd never heard that masturbation was supposed to kill unborn babies (it can't) but I think the idea of the Catholic church was that people should only have sexual gratification within marriage.

The question though is what happens to people who can't marry? Do they miss out completely? I could never find a really good explanation for that.
GuessWho, more propaganda from hysterical greenies. There would be plenty to feed all the world's people if only it were more fairly distributed.
Na, sounds like hysteria to me. Mind you, it is not inconceivable that a super flu could wipe out a lot of people (as happened during the flue epidemic of 1918-1919) and/or that some countries could decide to deploy nukes and wipe out large areas.

I don't know if you've noticed that birth rates have steadily declined in Western Countries over the past 30-35 years. Much of this has been the result of a more highly educated general populace.

In the so-called less developed countries, higher levels of education will also result in slowed population growth.

So in essence, we can't reliably extrapolate from the current population to years that are very far into the future. There are too many unknowns to make an accurate prediction.

All this fear-mongering is doing is spoiling people's lives and it isn't going to stop any disasters from happening unless it is accompanied by practical action eg. governments investing in desalination plants.

Water shortages are more of an issue than food shortages and there are certainly serious problems in parts of the world where any water that is available is filthy and teeming with deadly microbes.
If we could spread more of the western lifestyle with full throttle globalization we would probably decrease the human pop growth extensively. ;p
Uh, this is all catastrophising and will probably never happen.

tenaciouscj, what is your point?

Oh, didn't you get my point? I thought I stated it rather clearly - there is enough food to feed everybody on the earth - the only reason some people are starving now is because of political repression and genocides.
