Hey Tolyk--

[she_is_my_addiction]

dr M, I'll just put you on ignore because I hate hairy chests. They disgust me.

Your disgust disgusts me.

Your disgust disgusts me.

Hairy chest?

 

[carsonshepherd]

Hairy chest?

Just a fan.

Edit: You're on ignore.

 

[she_is_my_addiction]

Just a fan.

Edit: You're on ignore.

You're kidding, right?

Hey, don't let me put anyone off.

Not liking body parts thrust at me is just a thing of mine. It also happens that my computer is set up in the dining room of my house, and that's where I do all of my writing, and that's where I am when I'm visiting the AH and taking a break. Very often my kids and their friends are walking through the dining room. They don't read over my shoulder, but they could easily catch sight of someone's erect and glistening jalona. It's something I'd rather they didn't see.

I could turn off Av's, but I like scrolling through threads and seeing who's responded, and so it's easier for me to just put the penis people on ignore, and that's what I do.

One of the reasons I hang around here is because this is Literotica, not Picturotica, and this is a place where I can be reaonably sure I won't come across big, splashy meat shots when I click on some link. I mean, there is a board dedicated for people to show those parts of themselves they're so proud of.

But it's a free site. You;re entitled to put up a picture of whatever you want in your Av, and I'm free to ignore them. I don;t see where that makes me a prude or a hypocrite, or even especially rude.

[carsonshepherd]

Glistening jalona.

I would pay money to read these words, you insanely articulate hairy-chested creature.

Do you put ass, pussy, and tit AV's on ignore too? I'd bet money that you don't.



Edited to add: And truly, a PM to tol would have been less rude, and less embaressing. Since he's a friend of mine, it's a double blow that you decided to post this in front of everyone, as though you NEEDED confirmation that you weren't the only one who didn't like the display of his cock.

You'd lose that money. Nudes are okay, but nipple closeups and pussy shots are out.

I thought of sending Tolyk a PM, because I really think he's a nice guy and I enjoy his posts, but that kind of seemed like extortion to me, and I wanted to make my feelings public to see if anyone agreed with me about those meat-shot Av's.

Personally, I think he has a lovely penis.

[she_is_my_addiction]

I still maintain that a public thread wasn't necessary. Hell if I were tol I'd leave my AV up, not take it down for a few piddling negative opinions. It's his AV, and this is a porn site. If I were at home on a porn site with my computer in plain view of children and other family members, I'd do the logical thing and simply make it so the AV's couldn't be seen.

Who else wants pizza? Anchovies okay?

 

[cantdog]

Dining room. Dude!

Vern worked at a pizza joint for a while. Someone asked for an anchovy pizza with some anchovy flavor. "No, really, they act like I should want it subtle, but I fuckin like anchovies!"

"So really strong is--"

"Really strong is what I want!"

Vern opened a can of them, extracted the standard dose of little fish, and then poured the oil and juice from the can on the pizza. It turns out there's a lot of oil and juice! The pizza was awash in it. The, uh, aroma took over the shop while the pie was cooking.

Inevitably, the customer arrived to take custody. He came back afterward and asked who had taken his order, who had made the anchovy pizza. Vern 'fessed up because his co-worker turned him in, and the man shook his hand with a silly expression of sheer gratitude on his face. The pizza, which had resembled a wading pool of anchovy juice, was absolutely the best, the finest pizza ever made.

"I'm in awe. I'll probably never have another one like it. Thanks, man."

 

[cantdog]

But no anchovy for me, thanks. It's late.

 

[shereads]

Glistening jalona.

Isn't it the truth.

Jalona is one of those words like "tony" that's rarely used. Tony Jalona would be a good name for a character in the Doctor's Matt Danger stories.

Great story. But I just meant anchovies, as in "some anchovies." Hold the juice.


You may return to your regularly scheduled thread now. I'll keep the glistening jalona and return it to the library before the late fees kick in.

Dr. M's solution seems equally reasonable to me. By posting a thread, he let Tolyk know of his opinion and actions, but did not attempt to extort a change. He also spurred a discussion about such AV's that gave everyone a chance to see where everyone stands. Now he can continue to do his writing and reading sans genitalia thrust in his face, and Tolyk can continue to post his - I suppose I must really continue with the phrase - "glistening jalona" as prominantly as he likes. Both also now know where others stand on the issue, and can weigh their actions accordingly.

Sounds rational to me.

I agree. You come on a porn site, you shouldn't be complaining about seeing nudity. I haven't seen any women complain about all the breast and vagina shots.

I think Liar is right. In fact, I can't remember any up-close vaginal shots. (That's not a request to show me them, either.)

Personally, I don't think pictures of breasts quite the same as photographs of genitalia - a topic on which many other people seem to be in agreement, if the guidelines for things like movie ratings are anything to go by. Vagina/cock seems a pretty fair equation on whether one wishes a close-up shot post prominantly, but to my mind, men don't really have a body part that has the same value as a woman's breasts in terms of eroticism, nudity, and potential offensiveness. I'd argue that equating a soft-focus photo of a woman's breasts with a close shot of a man's cock is not quite comparing similar values.

Do you see me waving my cock around anymore?

I had just finished a conversation with Vella about how I would take my AV down if anyone was disturbed by it, all they need do was let me know. However, he didn't let me know, he let the entire community know, and already had me blocked before I even read this thread.

So what kind of purpose did a thread serve where PM would've sufficed all the same, with far less embarassment to me. And it would've been faster too, since i would've gotten the PM the moment I signed in, instead of seeing this when someone bumped it back into the top.

Also, as I said, I really _don't_ need to know who is ignoring me and who isn't. If you think starting a thread to tell someone you will be ignoring them from now on is the polite way to go about it, thats your choice. I however think it lacks tact, definately since I was signaled out. It didn't turn into a conversation about other "meat" AVs until Lucifer posted.

 

[she_is_my_addiction]

We live in a world full of double standards. Breasts, pussy, cock, ass, it's all genetalia as far as I'm concerned.

And I've seen close up shots of female genetalia on here. Not all that shocking.

Agreed wholeheartedly.

 

[tolyk]

Consequently, this is my last post on the AH, I'm sick of dealing with all this shit. This is a thread for fun, and there are more politics at work here than any place I've been.

The other threads are much more interesting and free. Anyone from here that would like to keep in touch with me is more than free to PM or IM me.

Toodles.

Just please don't tell your biology teacher. They're underpaid and overstressed enough as it is.
