Bigger is better? No penis envy here.....

I'm talking about breast size.

Ok, I'll admit this is sorta a cop-out blog today. I am trying to decide if I should start espousing on the virtues of being an average white male and the things I have discovered about sex in my still young life that I could share with others......

In a recent post greeneyesatl05 mentioned something about the size of one's boobs (I am pretty sure that it the term she used) and if bigger was better.

So I would like to go on the record here, because I know you all think my opinion is so very very important (hang on, I will hand out the air-sickness bags shortly), with my thoughts on the female upper torso region. The place that gives rise (get it - rise?) to some of the more eye catching landscape that is a part of the female body.

Wow - that sounded stupid.

Ok, here it is.... I like breasts, but I like 'em all, big, medium, small, it pretty much makes no difference to me (I felt differently many years ago but that's for another blog). The bigger, more important issue to me is the nipples!!! Size of course comes in to play here but this blog entry dear reader is not about nipple size, it is about the sensitivity of said nub. If a woman gets no satisfaction from my ministrations upon her nipples, then I will just forget the whole breast area and move on elsewhere, big or small makes no matter, if she enjoys my mouth and or hands on her breasts then I am there.

Sure, my head may sometimes give my neck muscles a strain when a woman wearing a tight top walks by, but I promise you this, its one of the last things I personally think about when I am fantasizing about my perfect woman.

Ok, guys? Ladies? What do you like? There is nothing wrong with being a 'boob man' - if that's your number one 'things my lady must have' then tells us about it!!

(btw, I am also one of the guys that shakes my head when a woman says she wants to get a boob job to feel better about herself - and by boob job I mean enlargement, not reduction)

Some statistics about members.....

Someone pointed out that it seems that every new member of Gay Hookup Zone now gets a blog. I thought it was wrong but now I am not so sure. Either way I decided to crunch some numbers (yes - beware!!!).

When you click to view all the new blogs you are presented with a list of 50 names as well as their ages, etc.

So I simply copied this list into excel - around 10 times and came up with a total of 500 new users to use as a sample of the 'average' Gay Hookup Zone member.

Here is what I found

500 users.....

327 Males (93 gold, 72 silver)
110 Females (14 gold, 6 silver)
52 Couples (12 gold, 13 silver)
2 Couples (2m)
4 TV/TG
5 ??? (blanks)

Average Age:
Males: 34.5
Females: 32.9
Couples: 36.9 (couples age is usually the oldest person if I recall).

Sooo......

If you go with those as a good mix - there are just 3 men for every woman. Sure doesn't feel that way.

Resume normal blogging activities, at least for now you can post more than one comment per blog entry again

(editing by adding this - I have no idea why my post was denied - 2nd try - I suspect it was a syntax problem with the title)

I have gathered the names from your suggestions and here is the newest list. I am thinking I will try to do this once a week. The requirements I have set up for myself are as follows - blogs that are listed in the 'actively watched' or 'most popular' on the front page are not eligible. "Actively Watched" is a bit hard to define since there isn't a list as much as the random 3 pictures that come up - but if I see a picture showing up from one of these blogs I will probably remove them from the list (a good thing because it means they are getting the attention that someone felt they deserved!).

Male Blogs:
[blog apolybear]
MainelyCurious15
[blog sharksnsails]
[blog sportyfun56]
[blog lickyourpassion]
[blog EdgeofdesireM]
[blog Seekinganswers05]
[blog lupon_69]
[blog kevnico]
nightstogether
[blog Priapeo]
4plait (has no blog, search the blogs for his comments - the link goes to his profile)

Female Blogs:
helga_hansen
[blog i_heart_cock2]
[blog morefutility]
playfulwithyou33
[blog Plumpness1]

Bad Tattoo ...

I have never had a tattoo, and I don't plan on ever getting one.

Walking at a store today I saw a woman with the name "Toby" tattooed on her neck.

It reminded me of a friend (well - a kinda friend) of mine who had her boyfriend tatoo her name on his arm as proof of his love for her. Not only that, he also put her birthdate on the tattoo as well.

As you can guess they are no longer together.

Do you know of anyone with a bad tattoo, or a tattoo they regret?

This was originally going to be just a comment in my previous post but I decided to let it stand on its own as my 100th post.

I am sure most of you know that it was [blog Mysticwriter88] that I was referring to in my previous post. For those that missed it - the short of it is he talked about bloggers fishing for comments and acting like class clowns.

After several comments from the blogging community, he came back with a reply stating that he was referring to keithcancook's comment that due to the new way you can only get one comment per blog entry he was frustrated.

Since then he has posted a few more comments stating that he wants the young bloggers to rise up and become more active and, the way I read it, put the 'older' bloggers in their place. <cough> I have never ever looked at the age of a blogger and thought there should be less of one group or more of another, if you have a good blog then what should your age matter?

I am going to post my comments about said writer here and then attempt to ignore him for a good long while, frankly I doubt if I will succeed - lol.

Here is a statement from his latest post:

"Who gives a two bit flying fu** if you can only post a certain number of comments per person on each blog. Most of you write several hundred blogs a month and several blogs a day. You pharm comments and popularity, and absolutely nothing more."

He stated earlier that one reason people blog is to get to know each other.... this CAN take the form or a dialogue within certain blob posts. I have a post by [blog tkwswing] marked because they had written about one post they had that was a running story where people helped them add to it. Of course that is no longer possible with the 'one comment' rule (which I still maintain is a mistake and will be fixed).

As to writing several hundred blogs a month.... errrrr - doubtful. My next post (on tattoos) is my 101st. And since I am one of the more active bloggers I would expect to be one of those '100 or more' blogs a month people - for someone who talks abvout facts and accuracy he sure is off the mark on that one.

I am also annoyed with his rants on lack of passion and writing, yet he has many many grammatical errors in his writing. Do I have them? Sure, but, for the most part I don't complain about other's mistakes since I am guilty of the same.

I would suggest that [blog Mysticwriter88] stick with his research and thoughts on sex and not worry so much about being critical of others choice of blog topics. And unlike him I will not 'ban' users that I dont' agree with from my blog (he stated in one of his posts that he does this and I see keithcancook's comment to him has been removed). I only posted this original post because Mysticwriter88's post on 5/13 titled "It is becoming a total JOKE..." rubbed me the wrong way.

I think everyone should be able to blog however they like, the one exception I guess for me would be a person whose sole purpose in blogging is to attack other bloggers. Which is why I am telling myself to forget this silly debate and move on.

Age should not make a difference as to how you are looked at in the blogging community. And more than the complaining about people trying to elicit comments, Mysticwriter88's blog entitles "A call to arms" was totally over the top - ending with this phrase:

"The young of this world need to show the older generation once and for all; that they can in fact be “very easily” replaced. They can not fight your young and creative mind; they can not match your intelligence. A very “select” few of them can, but they are indeed just a “few.” "

Give me a break - you sir have now alienated yourself from a large portion of the blogging community. I doubt you will find one 'older generation' blogger who is out knocking the 'younger generation' in the way you just did.

btw - if you would like to read and comment on a blogger asking WHY the average age of the bloggers seems 'older' - check out [blog 100words] blog - she points out the age issue without insulting people.

Tonight I came across a blog entry by someone who seems to believe that a lot of us are not very mature. That we don't take writing seriously. At first I wrote a quick comment and moved on, but I decided I had more I wanted to say and since we can currently only leave one comment per blog entry I decided to make a post of my own.

A few quotes from the post.....

"I am very distressed by the amount of people who only use blogs as an advertisement."

"If not as an advertisement they use them like a game… It is a direct reflection of the general maturity."

"...seems like the most active writer’s only care about popularity and care nothing for revealing who they actually are."

"To (sic) many people make a total mockery of what the written word is capable of and that is deeply insulting to those who cherish it."

So from what I read it seems he feels that 'we' are in some way ruining the blogging experience on Gay Hookup Zone. I can only assume I was one of the people he was speaking of since I tend to be rather silly at times. As any of you that have looked back in my blogs (or come across my comments in other's blogs) will know, I am very capable of being serious when the mood strikes me.

I just am being who I am, having a good time and not taking the Gay Hookup Zone web logs as a place where everything has to be about sex.

I look at the Gay Hookup Zone blogs as a newspaper, and I can usually be found writing in the humor section.

To each their own, some people will be drawn the the serious, deep, mystical writers and some will be drawn to the class clowns, many will be drawn to both, many are both.

Hopefully this is just a glitch..... but as of this writing it appears you are only allowed ONE comment per blog entry.

I was complaining about not being able to post a comment and greeneyesatl05 told me it looked to her like you can now only make one comment.

Is this Gay Hookup Zone 's way of keeping the number of posts down? All I can see it doing is forcing bloggers to create more posts more often in order to reply to people where they normally would have done in in the comments area of the original post.

Oh well, I am up to the challenge!!

Btw, this seems to be the case for both paying and standard members (I have both types of accounts and was only able to post one comment per blog entry).

For those that post pictures of themselves, how critical are you of your own images?

I tried today to take some new pictures and I am just not happy with the result

Here is a picture I took a few weeks ago (same time as the others), I am sure most will say it looks fine, but I am not even happy with it - lol.

Anyone else agree? Anyone have some funny, frustrating picture taking stories?

No - not sex... but those here in the USA should be happy they looked...

As a way to say thank you to customers for sticking with them - the Fast Food chain Wendy's will be giving away free Jr. Frosty's Friday through Sunday with no other purchase required.

Kinda cool huh?

This is a result of the chilli-finger thing which ended up being a hoax in case you never heard.

This isn't a joke, I am sure if you search the net you will find the info elsewhere, I got it from cnn's money section.
