Annette - LOL!!! That list just gets better and better.....or funnier and funnier. Or is it sadder and more sad? Geez, better stop here.....:-)

Thanks for the laughs. I'm sure in no time our fellow male S2K friends will come up with their own lists.....

I started a list and got stuck on age 52. It was starting to get nasty, so good sense (and good taste) prevailed. My only requirement (for all ages) is "doesn't talk too much," and "is not a money pit." Everything else is negotiable. Of course this is all speculation since I am out of circulation - for better or worse (probably more worse than better)

As for your list, Breeze, I can proudly say that I've mastered everything needed for age 72 so I have no need for improvement. (Scatches butt)

Sorry, but if you are looking for a tender, loving, caring, attentive, stylish and sensitive man...he probably already has a boyfriend. :lol:

Actually, isn't it kinda nice how we all get along on things like this - we're like a group of coworkers, hanging out at the water cooler.... he he

you all beat me to the best answer (already has a boyfreind). Just as well because I would have faced certain accusations if I had come out with it first.

LOL, unfortunately, I have learned that
Bill's comment does have alot of truth in it!

Miss Mary, it is true, also - poking fun at each
other is done here without mean intentions.
The gentlemen here have my respect, but, I
have to share a good laugh with the ladies,
now and again! :ggreen:

IT is soooooo true!! But with that said, gay men make great shopping buds!! :lol:

Of course...they are artistically gifted, have much better color theory and general education than the average man, and they are "non-threatening"...never display the slightest bit of interest in a lady other than platonic.

That they do, gay men are fun shopping buddies! They really will tell you if your clothing fit the style or not.
