Aspirin

Forgot to mention, I almost fell off my seat yesterday when I received mail from someone I never in my present state of mind expected to hear from.

Kind of reminded me of my experiences with Barbie Almalbis and Jessica Zafra...

I guess it was more of the element of surprise than the actual, um, I can't find the right words.

I just saw Bridget Jones' Diary on cable.

I was wondering, do men really think about sex that often? Do we really have a one track-mind? I mean is that a feminist thing or a singles thing or just something that comes out of a relationship gone sour? I would like to think that we men (or most of us) do think about other things that have some kind of importance other than that of just self-gratification... I'd like to think that we men are more than just hormones walking around looking for the right time to erupt. But sometimes, I get disappointed by being proven otherwise.

And why is sex suddenly a commodity when we grow up? I've read that it's a release (and a friend of mine confirms that) from the pressures of everyday life. And as life around us progresses so does the pressure. Hence; more pressure = higher demand for sex. I've also read that sex is a primal instinct and that it cannot simply be helped (another friend confirms this too) and that trying to keep it bottled up only makes things worse. I've made a few pretty stupid decisions that involved sex and I'm sure letting it out isn't the right answer. Well, maybe in the right consequence though.

Oh, and are men designed to be polygamous? I spent my formative years in an exclusive school and I have witnessed this theory at work (um, and experienced it briefly) and I can say that it's not a pretty sight. Is it just the mental conditioning or is it really genetic?

Boy, I'd hate it if it were genetic!

Come to think of it, I was able to change (okay, not so much but I'm still working on it) what I thought was unpleasant about me.


My opinions:

Men think about sex a lot. But not always. Just a lot.

Sex is a primal instinct, but it doesn't mean that we should give it free reign.

Most men have the need to assert and "be the boss" every once in a while.

I'm hungry, I think I'll go fix myself a sandwich.
