Dangling Participles

Deneen and I were chatting on one of our walks.

It was sooo nice out and there were runners and cyclists everywhere.

She turned to me and said, “Wouldn’t it feel weird to be a guy and have those 'parts' dangling around outside your body?”

Definitely. Wouldn’t they always get in the way?

We discussed certain types of underwear and how it might help control the 'flipflop' down there, but we agreed that it would just be weird to have all the dangling.

And cycling? Doesn’t the junk get in the way? There would definitely be some awkward situations…

But then they’d probably think that having two blobs of fat hanging on the chest would feel weird too. When I was a young girl I couldn’t fathom that either. I didn’t want them. I wondered if I’d ever get to sleep on my stomach after I got them.

Deneen thought that if guys had boobs they'd just play with them all day.

But are your own body parts that compelling?

What about lesbians? They like boobs and they don’t spend all day playing with their own boobs... do they? I mean, a hot-lookin’ straight girl may check herself out in the mirror naked and say, "Yep, I suppose I look alright."

…But a hot lesbian? Maybe she looks in the mirror and says:

"Lookin’ good… I’d do me."

And the lesbian said as she told the story to her friend "And suddenly I was all over myself!"
I read your blog to your mother. She wants you to know "your sick!" Hahaha.
