I gave up on aspirations and such a long time ago. I don't worry about priorities....expect basic things. get job. earn money. that's about it.

I'm not going to get into this debate because I've spoken about the Mr. Nice Guy vs Mr. Jerk a lot of times, I'm just sick to death of how everything is when it comes to that.
Especially since I'm the former being shafted rather than the latter.

......Twilight, I'm not even going to touch that with a ten foot pole. Maybe a twenty foot one, but not a ten.....
Hey Noah, I don't we've officially met. I'm Luke but Lunar calls me BRO. Nice to meet you.
As far as the nice guy vs Jerk Guy thing goes, every guy goes through a period of playing both roles.

Hey, nice to meet you as well BRO lol. I may call you something else if I don't decide on Bro.
But here is the thing. I've never played both roles. I've been the Nice Guy all my life, I don't have it in me to ever be a Jerk, at all.

I looked up the definition of 'porn' and it says that it includes writing. But Im not sure of the official (ie dictionary) definition.
BRO is a totally awesome nick name, but I won't use it if you don't want me too. smile
Ugh, I had a jerk once. Good riddance. Using me for sex get's old REAL quick. I'll take the sweetheart any day.
I kinda feel that everyone plays both rolls too. I mean, just cause you think you're being a nice guy doesn't mean that you ARE being a nice guy.
And hell, I'm the nicest girl around. But I ain't no sugar queen, and I know it. (Doesn't mean that I like it mind you...)

Everybody has the potential to be a jerk. It's the great thing about human nature. I'm not doubting that you're not a jerk all the time, and will go out of your way to make sure your women is happy. But there are times when even the nicest guys can be a** wipes.
Personally I don't think I'm the super nice guy or the jerk I'm somewhere in the middle. I love to cater to my woman, make sure that she has everything, as long as she does the same for me.
And Noah let's hope you never get to the point where you feel that you have to a jerk to keep a girl. I'm sure that at some point there is going to be a woman that will know how to take care of you.
And you call me anything you want Lunar....

I feel the need to point out that just because it's a romance novel doesn't always mean there is sex. Therefore, romance as a genre cannot be equated with porn.
And truthfully, there's really no difference between books and movies. There's erotica in literature and X rated movies. Same deal, different medium.

I'm a nice guy. or at least I think I am. opinions vary I'm sure on that point. but it matters little. that's another area I've all but given up on anyway.

Porn isn't defined by people having sex, unfortunately just like everything these days, it's defined by the people who read them/view them. Therefore, the term is vague and equated with anything anyone wants it to be.
I've never read a romance novel that didn't have sex in it. (But I don't like most romance themes, give me a good action or comedy any day!) In fact, most of any book I've read has had sex in it.
I do agree with you that there isn't much difference between books and movies. I don't agree about the 'x rated' differentiation though, since most films have sex in them anyway. Hey, we all know sex sells, and we are all after the moola.
*sigh* I am so sick of sex and sexual themes right now. I mean, it's a thing that's permeated nearly every aspect of our daily lives. Worshiping female genitalia to a point were we are afraid to look at a nude woman, using the p***s as a source of humor and shock subject. We've put sex upon a pedestal that's unclean but on everybody's mouths. We love it, we abhor it, we want it, won't someone think of the children?
Sorry, I know I'm all over the place with this subject.

I don't think the fear comes from looking at a naked woman. I think a lot of fear comes from the fact that if I looked at a naked woman, and she didn't like it, I could be arrested for sexual harassment. in reverse though, people would laugh at a guy in the same situation.

I'm not indulging in deep thought provoking conversation. I came here to relax, not think.
Now with that said, I want to push the time warp button...so yeah, people get done what they need to get done then inform me, meanwhile I'll amuse myself elsewhere.

That was part of the point, I didn't think I had to clarify. smile
That remark was supposed to encompass the history of sex that's made us so frightened of our nudity. The early 1800's held sex as largely taboo, such acts were performed at night with the no light, pregnancy was so disgraceful that it was hidden, women dropping out of sight until the child was born. And the children were all fine and dandy but woe to your social status if someone found out you were having sex.
And...since Frac has decreed, I'll stop with the thinking.
I guess that means we better wind up Aella and Onyx.

Lab. Gots things to age/endure and Holly has characters to reinstate that need ten years of havoc.
IIH is still on hold in time things for the moment.
