Why men send photos of their genitalia to women - CNN

Wanna get laid? Don't send a woman a photo of your big dick. Send her a photo of your big bank statement.

davknight comments on Feb 11, 2019:

Back in the 'eighties, I attended a truckdriving school in Alabama. On our last day in road-training, one of the students backed over a brand new Mercedes Benz. All we felt in the cab was a minor thud. When we got out to investigate, the owner of the car-- a Pentecostal preacher--came running out of...

Moravian replies on Feb 11, 2019:

@Amisja It is interesting why people commented on appearances and how people look.Possibly because this is a dating site which I was unaware of when I joined. Shows how people think. It's just that I find the faceless avatars a bit creepy but then as you say I haven't completed a bio so touche.

gsiamne comments on Feb 8, 2019:

I think a big part of it is a psychological need and because of that despite that cults saying that they have to practice conformity and doctrinal purity, they don't care about the misbehavior/immoral practices of their members.

Yes, I think some actors musicians etc are a bit needy because their profession is so precarious.

Moravian replies on Feb 9, 2019:

I wondered why Liam Neeson came out with the story about wanting to kill a black guy because a friend had been raped by an unknown black guy. Could it be because being raised a Roman catholic he has this inherent guilt feeling installed almost from birth. He said he had already confessed this to a priest. The reaction has been overwhelmingly negative and could even wreck his career.

I love this instrumental by Peter Green but blues purists see it as the start of the decline of Fleetwood Mac from a great blues band to a mediocre pop group.

Moravian replies on Feb 8, 2019:

@Byrdsfan I have a solo album by him on green vinyl which is very good but after that unfortunately mental illness took it's toll and he vanished from the scene. He did appear at a later date with "splinter" but he was never the virtuoso blues guitar player again who at his peak could have matched Eric Clapton at his best.

@Marionville The "plantations" when Scots were transported to Ulster is having repercussions to this day. It was a common ploy by empire builders to dilute the indigenous population. There is a parallel in the satellite countries of the old Soviet Union particularly in Ukraine where Russian speakers are causing trouble.

He never could play the guitar very well so the accompaniment is appreciated.

Moravian replies on Feb 7, 2019:

@FrayedBear I have no idea if he is well endowed or not but I think the "Big Yin" comes from the fact that he is very tall and comes from a city where people tend to be on the small side after generations of malnutrition. I am barely over 6ft and I used be addressed as "big man" when I went into a pub in Glasgow.
