I guess it depends on whether you average in negative numbers for

   As far as them being uncomfortable, I guess that depends on the woman
   wearing them. I dated a girl who would wear heels as opposed to flats
   because she said they were more comfortable!

Well, what about if the woman were suffering permanent foot damage from
wearing high heels?  Would you still want her to wear them?  This is not
entirely a hypothetical situation -- my mother's feet got badly deformed
from years of being squished into shoes with high heels and narrow, pointy
toes.  (This was before it became popular for women to wear sneakers with
their dress clothes, and simply *carry* their fancy high-heeled shoes in a
tote bag.)  She's had surgery three times to try to straighten out her
toes again.

As for myself, I simply find most dress shoes -- even low-heeled pumps --
far too painful to wear.  Does *anybody* really have feet shaped like
that?

A more ecological approach to logging is to select trees for harvest from 
a mixed forest, leaving (as much as possible) the other trees undisturbed.
The current mode is to clearcut, then replant with fir seedlings.  The result
is a tree farm, basically a monoculture of fir, rather than a forest with 
diversity.  

Even after a fire, the new growth will be diverse and not a monoculture.

I've been too busy to keep up with soc.singles for the last little while, and
I started in on this thread right at the end. This being said, my point was
something like, IMNSHO, :

	women want a guy that will, among other things (like give them
	multiple orgasms :-), try and take care of himself, and part of
	taking care of oneself is to consider one's owns needs and wants.

Or, to turn it around, do women really want a man that gives no thought to
his own wants/needs/etc ?

(I'm using 'women' above to mean 'women in general'. I do know at least
 one woman that, at least when we were in a relationship, didn't want
 to hear any of my simple affection needs and wants, and just wanted to
 have her physical needs and wants met. I know from experience how bad
 such user/usee relationships can be. So, if I see relationship advice
 that doesn't include "consider your own wants and needs to rank at least
 as high as your partner's wants and needs", I have this knee-jerk reaction
 telling me to post :-)

>guys are not necessarily any better communicators than women.

I am :-)

>In a relationship, both the girls and the guys should be patient with each
>other when they don't manage to do all of that extra work.

Great, where do I find a woman my age that is patient, and willing to
communicate ?

>>(Why is it that older women are more reasonable about these things ?)
>
>We're not, believe me. <wicked grin>

Some are <wickeder grin> ... but, at the root of it all, we're just friends,
and simple friendship (ok, it's not that simple a friendship :-) doesn't
meet some of my emotional wants/needs.

	Ashley the Witch here. Might post this to alt.pagan, you'd get a lot of 
replies about herbal aphrodisiacs there. My reccomendations? Hmm. Depends on 
your metabolism. Excuse me, GREATLY depends on your metabolism. Here's a few I 
know of that have worked in my experiences:

		1) Damiana
		2) Rosehips
		3) Chocolate
		4) Genseig
		5) Fo-Ti
		6) Thermagen

			I usually mix some of these ingredients into a tea and 
administer. Get a good book on herbalism first before trying, too much of a 
good thing is NOT a good thing and can be dangerous! Jeannie Rose's book "Herbs 
and Things" is a good start. Above all avoid Spanish Fly. It is not safe and is 
not an aphrodisiac. It produces sensitivity and tingling in the genitals, and 
extremedies, if it does not KILL YOU. 

	Read first, then experiment. Good luck.

I *did* buy most of my furniture used... at a used furniture store. He 
bought his at garage sales. 

If he'd bought solid walnut desks with inlay and carving I doubt I'd have 
minded (although I'm more into the danish modern look myself). But that 
was never quite what he came home with.

Nah.... that's not fair... I work for a company that lets me work
from home. I get to dress the way I want (I'm sitting here in shorts
with a beer in my hand while I try to type with 1 hand :) ) unless
I have to see clients. I work my own hours... just have to put 40
in each week. This lets me goof around during the day, and work
into the wee hours (3 or 4). I just wish I could learn to sleep
late! :) They pay me a fair amount of money to follow VERY broad
guidelines.... It's better that way... I'm more productive! :)
