She was recently busted for steroid use.<BR/><BR/>I asked what impression the sister made in person as to masculinity or femininity. My friend indicated that she seemed conventionally feminine, to judge by her appearance and social behavior.<BR/><BR/>This strikes me as the counter-part of transvestism in males, where an otherwise gender-appropriate person engages in a select gender- inappropriate activity.<BR/><BR/>And thus my impression of a female's interest in firearms beyond the merely utilitarian is something of the same as that of female interest in steroid-enhanced body-building/weight-lifting and of a transvestite's attraction to inappropriate dress. Makes for an interesting personality.<BR/><BR/>I would be interested in whatever explanation can be offered as to why this phenomenon occurs. Though I would have to report that my own interests seem simply to be inborn appetities that I cannot rationalize, as perhaps I am asking others to do with theirs.Avalanchehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18295125010710856787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-49182049085433691852007-04-19T13:41:00.000-04:002007-04-19T13:41:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Avalanchehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18295125010710856787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-74164633490726324592007-04-19T08:51:00.000-04:002007-04-19T08:51:00.000-04:00Oh, BTW, Don,While we are waiting for Tamara to co...Oh, BTW, Don,<BR/><BR/>While we are waiting for Tamara to comfort you, and since we've already gone down this sidetrack into a dangerous and forbidden wilderness of psychopathology, I thought I might give you a little background to the wristlock-as-rape-foreplay affair.<BR/><BR/>I was once involved with a woman who wanted to be raped for real. She had experienced multiple rapes in her past, and, in the last instance, according to her account, she had experienced the most powerful climaxes of her life, pinned under the body of her attacker. She wanted to explore this further.<BR/><BR/>Since I was madly in love with her, I wanted to please her. So I started thinking about how you do this for real without hurting a woman. I realized that I knew how to do it instinctively. This made me wonder if this, my capability, and the incapacity of multiple women of my acquaintance since then, were not reflective of evolutionary developments that facilitate reproduction.<BR/><BR/>My apologies for this exploration if your sensibilities have proved too delicate to accommodate the calm contemplation of such a thesis.<BR/><BR/>NNAvalanchehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18295125010710856787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-20259037220107650612007-04-19T00:11:00.000-04:002007-04-19T00:11:00.000-04:00Dear Don,Perhaps Tamara might ease your evident di...Dear Don,<BR/><BR/>Perhaps Tamara might ease your evident discomfort with the unfortunate dislocation of the discussion, by eliminating the offending posts and by inviting you to initiate a resumption of the postings with the proper direction thereof in mind.<BR/><BR/>I myself am curious as to what you might have to contribute.

My industry last involved working on a Doctorate in the History of Science, and concerned problems in Relavistic physics - about 25 years ago.<BR/><BR/>4) As to whether any others "have a good eye and a grain of sense," you appear not to have grasped the point of the dispute.
