If I had to do high school again, I would have gone after the theater girls instead of the cheerleaders. They had better taste in music, and since they tended not to date football players, I probably wouldn't have gotten my ass kicked quite as often.

Yes. (I found myself wearing a lot more black during those years.)

That's because the theater guys were all gay. There was a reason they kept calling you "girlfriend" and asking to borrow your "stage" makeup.

Whiff.

Um. If I may. On rp's behalf. Whiff.

ETA I should have left off all the extra verbiage. It would have made my response time that much faster. Damn!

Whoa. Tough crowd.

If your HS was anything like mine, the theater girls* were too involved with all-consuming crushes on the theater guys, who obviously liked the girls very much, and loved hanging out, but for some mysterious reason, just never seemed that interested in fooling around.

*The theater girls who weren't fucking the drama teacher to get the plum roles, that is.

In my HS the theater girls were shit out of luck on all fronts, because our two gentleman drama teachers (they were so refined) had been living in a state of unsanctioned connubial bliss for about thirty years. Of course, this opened the field up somewhat for those of us willing to take bit parts in "Our Town" and hang around late painting scenery.

True, but the numbers/odds were still better. Looking back, i realized that although the teacher got the hottest chicks, and Lance and Crispin had their acolytes, there were a few reasonably hot and cool chicks available for a young Not Rob to attempt to woo.

Hindsight, etc.

One of the recurring themes on Craig's List Rants and Raves (at least in Boston) seems to be straight, married men getting blowjobs and then wondering whether that makes them gay.

Are they getting the blowjobs from guys? It certainly opens up the possibility, I would think.

No, but it's delicious served with Ass of Horse.

Feeling our oats today, are we? Or are you just bitter that you were passed over for the role of Constable Bill Warren?

It's okay, sometimes even girls get that gag reflex. Just relax and breathe through your nose.

Yes, I should have been clearer (billing today, ugh). The rationale for not being gay seems to run along the lines of mmm's logic: If it's only once or occassional, maybe (the married man getting the blowjob from another man hopes) it's just a one-off (heh) event.
