Sex. Man, Woman, or something in Between.

Old school thought.

I worked with a man who said he would “KILL” his child if he was gay, and I truly believe he meant it…..

I left High School in the early 80’s, and at that time the word FAG was thrown around like a rag doll. In fact we even played a game called “Smear the Queer” in which someone would throw a football up in the air and the unlucky person who caught it was Game for the rest of us, a cross between Rugby, WWE, and Football, however there was no goal line. The object was to Smash, Crush, Plummet the person who had the ball…… That was it..

I played that game, and to be honest, I really didn’t quite know what we were playing, I do not believe I had the vocabulary to understand what the word “Queer” meant. At that time of course it meant someone who was homosexual. Before that time it meant “Strange or Odd”. I really didn’t care, I just didn’t want to be the “Queer” one and get smashed and plummeted by my friends.

I am a man in every way. For even though some popcorn, whipped cream, cherry on top therapist might tell you otherwise, Men and Women are Different. Men do not care about certain things, the same way Women do not care about certain things.

And I will loudly claim that I will NEVER, in my life, SIT DOWN to go PEE on a toilet!
