Having on occasion worked as a roofer, all I can suggest is strong back and shoulders and a weak mind.

They also work with their shirts off because it is damn hot up there.

Ha it was a reference to the movie Lily mentioned and in that context the answer looks a lot (exactly) like this... http://www.imdb.com/name/nm7621162/

Although tbh I can also see the appeal in your explanation 

Why DO women love roofers?

The way men discuss women just...isn't the same way wlw discuss women. At least, I don't think so? Like..bloody hell if I get asked if I want to shag another mutual female friend I'm going to tell them off 

Ugh and that feeling when you just KNOW the reason they are asking is because they are getting off on imagining it...

I want to come and yell at them for you

I already own approximately 400 jumpers at this point 

And a neat $2 appliance that opens all the jars. 

So in actual relevant to this thread news earlier this week I had the realisation that after a lifetime of feeling "not bi enough" and like I have not enough experience/no idea what I am doing with girls (a feeling unrelated to actual levels of experience) I now get exactly the same thing with boys (but still with women too).

Internalized biphobia sure is a hell of a thing

I don't know?  Had a week of totally fun amazing, er, exercise and then he got weird.  Snappish.  I took off, because life is too short to hang out with someone who cant speak to other people respectfully.  Chalked it up to a bad day,  but since then he has been lukewarm on making plans.  I ran into him at my "office" (the local tavern) and the chemistry was still DEFINITELY there, but he was on a date so I split.  Texted him the following morning about making plans and he was all, "call me Friday and I'll see what I'm up to."  All together is smells like some bullshit dude emotional mind game nonsense.  I forgot how cagey dudes behave early on and when things are going well.  That whole "act cool so she doesn't think I like her that much"  Or maybe he doesn't like me that much. 

I find the latter hard to believe.   He has a pretty reliable "thermostat" that I read with the all detail that a trained scientist can bring to a new field of research. 

Anyway, I'll be seeing him this weekend since he's in my Mardi Gras Krewe and we're planning our Easter party.  :shrugs:  It's just been a looooooooooong time since I had to deal with the EPIC nonsense that most men bring to the table with their poor emotional awareness and general immaturity.  He's my age, btw.  Just reconfirming that I'm pretty gay these days by CHOICE and very grateful that it's an option for me. 

 

To my beautiful bi pals up on this board:     ******GO TEAM BISEXUALS!  TWICE THE OPTIONS AND TWICE THE FUN.  GO AHEAD CALL ME "GREEDYAND I WILL CACKLE ALL THE WAY TO MY GRAVE WITH A DATE ON FRIDAY NIGHT!********

All the love from New Orleans.  If I haven't mentioned it recently, thank you all.  Especially @brook @Xray the Enforcer @Theda Baratheon for helping me find the guts to come out.  Better late than never.  <3

<3 I love you

Jumping late but had to laugh at the "guys have dicks" as if that was a selling point and not at best an interesting (& not universal!) detail & at worst an inconvenience. This particular bisexual view is that (on average, not all men etc) men are worse at sex, relationships, and being interesting human beings than women but they do come with the advantage of being much harder to fall in love with.

And it's good to see someone reading that SMH article, Eithne. ;)

Are we going to have to start asking for your Autograph?
