its my duty to please that boo... err lovely lady that is kind enough to not throw me out...

i hearya though... as long as it occurs sporadically it keeps it as unneccesary and just fun and spontaneous. abstain too long though and it might become mandatory... besides it feels good to do something for someone ya love. :D

altruistic patriarchy he says. that there is a rare thing.. rare indeed. and since there were alternative motives.. i don't think its really altruistic at all. :p

Sure it is. Maybe you've just been doing it wrong. Nothing says altruism can't be personally rewarding as long as selfishness isn't the primary motivator. It's not a binary either/or proposition.

hmm i always thought of true altruism was acting for anothers interest in front of my own. but ive always found the whole idea very conflicting. the reason one acts altruistically is (primarily) the feeling it gives. which in essence does make it selfish as they do these things to get that feeling and that without it, they likely wouldnt be altruistic (or at least nearly as frequently). im totally guilty of being altruistic in relationships.. sometimes to my own decline/demise... but thats a story for another day and lots of scotch.

It is, but you're not brain dead. Altruism doesn't, by necessity, require personal hardship or a requisite lack of mutual benefit. It just means you would do the same thing either way regardless of the cost or benefit. It never hurts to check...you know...just in case

I'm here! So here's a question... what does everyone prefer to use to get their bionic fix? I'm eagerly awaiting my first four bottles and I'm hoping that my MVP 2 and mini nautilus will deliver the flavor well.

I use the same setup. Mvp Shine and mini nautilus. Works very well with Bionic. :)
