If you want to know >what turns women on, ask them. I know we keep harping on that, From my experience, what women say they want is not always the same as what they actually want. I spent 2 years in business school surrounded by "feminist" women who insisted that what they wanted was a man who treat them as an equal. But, what I found was that, treating them they way they said they wanted resulted in having lots of "good friends". In a romantic relationship, these women still wanted men to hold doors for them, buy them dinner, etc. I have read "The Hite Report" and similar reports, in which women "honestly" discuss their sexual desires. They talk about how they long for more foreplay and afterplay, and how they wish men would go slower and take their time. Experience tells me, however, that women don't really want those things, even though they say they do. Of course, I'm sure there are some who do (are you out there?), but, in general, they are approximately the same way as the men they complain about. I am not saying that this phenomenon is unique to women. I'm just saying that you can't always believe what people tell you, because people don't always know what they want. __ "It seldom turns out the way it does in the song" Seth Jackson dec-curium!jackson
