The Male Sex-Mind

The male sex-mind. Yes, those two terms are an oxymoron. HOWEVER, I write romance novels, erotica mainly, and sometimes I read romance novels so I'm abreast of what bodice-ripping, crotch-grabbing antics my fellow novelists are up to.

The other night in the midst of a bodice-ripping, crotch-grabbing session with Mr. Snark, I posited a research question to him that I had given a great deal of consideration and contemplation to. (Ah, I love being able to end  the sentence like that. So good...)

Mrs. Snark said:
The heroes in romance novels are always thinking about how much they admire the heroine's intelligence, spirit, resourcefulness, sense of humor, courage, etc. Usually in the middle of a really steamy sex scene, which demonstrates how much they truly admire and respect the heroine before they get with the bodice ripping.
Mr. Snark said:
UHHHHHNNNN?
Mrs. Snark said:
So, is that accurate? What does a man really think about during sex?
Mr. Snark said:
About getting his dick into her whoo hoo.
Mrs. Snark said:
Really? Nothing else more romantic?

Mr. Snark said:
Nope.
Mrs. Snark said:
Hmm, I suspected as much.

And so, there you have it ladies. The male sex-mind thinks about getting laid. Nothing more, and probably a lot less.

*Egads, Mr. Snark is a pig!

Getting Started

I'm trying hard to figure out this blogger thing, but it drives me nuts that I can't figure out how to get rid of the word "Unknown" which is in the upper right hand corner here. Right beside the blank profile picture. Gah!

Woot! Problem solved.
