This morning, while lounging in bed, my husband went out to the store to buy fruit and yogurt to make us parfaits for breakfast. I tweeted this on twitter and I got a stupid reply from someone. You know the type, they just like saying things because they live off of the response they’ll get from you? Too bad he didn’t realize I don’t play those games. Ha! Anyways, his response was, “Is he skipping down the street with a rainbow flag?”
(S here: My thought on reading this was: “Not today, I couldn’t find my sequined culottes.” But I’ve been unplugged from Twitter lately, so that bit of Treppenwitz has been lost)
My response: “if he was I’d have no problem with that. Just means more fun in the bedroom. At least he’s a fantastic cook.” Which is more than I can say for this guy. Since I wasn’t playing his games, he never responded. Guess I didn’t give him the negative response he was hoping for.
As I sit back and think about, Sylvanus being gay, well, it’s impossible really. He loves pussy. He loves MY pussy. I realize the comment was supposed to be a stab at his “manhood” because he wanted to make us parfaits. Yeah, my husband wanted to make us a somewhat healthier breakfast of fruit and yogurt because he had just spent yesterday hearing about me complaining that I need to lose weight and I’m addicted to “bad foods”. At least I have a husband who understands and wants to make his wife happy. A happy wife equals a happy husband and vice verse.
If he were gay, well then that would be fine by me. Obviously we have a great marriage and a fantastic sex life. Adding another man to the mix would please me just fine. *wink* But seriously, if Sylvanus decided he were bi, I’d be happy. Again, because that means the potential of a lot more fun in the bedroom. I don’t think being open about your sexuality is an awful thing. I also don’t think when a man enjoys having a woman play with his ass, it makes him gay either. It just means he’s unlocked more pleasure in his sex life. Why does male anal play have to be associated with being gay?
So to that comment I say… So what?
(and here’s to hoping I get back into writing regularly)
So what indeed. What business is it of his anyway? Although now I’ve got this mental image of orgies where everyone plays with everyone else!
And you’re quite right, a person’s choice of sexual play isn’t related (necessarily) to their sexual orientation or their gender (chosen or otherwise).
Glad you’re going to get back into writing. Look forward to reading it.
Oh whoever said that comment is obviously insecure about his manhood. I don’t see why he thought Sylvanus was gay cause he wanted to make parfaits. Doesn’t he know that straight men that not only are chef’s but hair stylest, designers, nail technicians, nurses, etc.
Hey I myself would love a man that is a great cook and blow out my hair. And like you I agree if a man is bi or likes anal play it means more fun in the bed. ;)
Fudge tastes best when packed, no?
;-)
I can’t stand how people are still immature enough to equate certain things with being gay. Isn’t that something you grow out of in grade school? I’d kill for a man who makes me parfaits and is also a wonderful lover ;)
I look forward to reading for from both of you now that you’re getting settled.
That’s a spiteful response from someone unhappy with their life. Anyone that actually didn’t care would breeze past your comment and not respond. SOmeone looking to bait you will give you something negative for the attention.
Twitter is meant for short messages and I happened to think that one was pretty sweet, even if that does conjure images of me holding the flag and your husbands hand while we skip down the street together.
First off, I’m reminded, reading this, that everyone isn’t bisexual, which really is quite a pity, and would solve all sorts of problems. And second – although I do not personally enjoy parfait, I do have a number of friends who do, you know, cuz that’s just the way I roll. ;)
I’m always saddened when people use sexual preference to ridicule someone, because it means, at least to them, that certain preferences are ridiculous. Brava for refusing to play along – I know a number of folks (a few intimately so) who can attest that “manhood” doesn’t depend on orientation at all.
And how wonderful to have a husband who loves you so well, and to love him so well in return. :)
All I can say to any man who rejects anal play because he thinks it is gay, you have no idea what you are missing. Your loss!
