Math, such as long divison, algebra, calculus, hell even converting some things from fractions to decimals in different units such as metric. There is a reason I have calculator with me, I suck at math lol.


Ditto!
I try to practice yoga as the sun comes up. The morning sun is gentle and full of hope for the day. It’s hugely beneficial for my emotional balance. Sometimes I will recite mantras as I move into different positions. Yoga aligns me with the belief that there is something much greater than myself, it helps me act more from my heart.

I like being in the garden in the summer but now it’s so bloody cold, I’m inside.

Yoga can be a hugely spiritual practice and that’s what I like about more than Pilates which is a fantastic physical work out.
I don’t tend to be up to date on the latest trends...but if it is making a comeback I’m all for it.

Call me strange but I like hairy men, so it tends to come with the territory (hairy chest, hairy hands etc.) and I like things as they naturally are. It’s nice if it’s trimmed but I’m not offended if it’s not.

I keep myself trimmed and nobody’s complained yet - at least not to my face.

It's fine for a bit of foreplay, but I find it way too distracting.

I can't concentrate on your cock of you're licking and sucking on my hoo-haa. Just can't. Sexual ADD?


Yup, this is me.
ENFP, The Campaigner.

That was rather entertaining and somewhat revealing.
I love the opening to Lady Chatterly’s Lover - the book was banned for many years because of its open depictions of sex and when published in 1960, found itself in the centre of an obscenity trial at the Old Bailey.

“Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically. The cataclysm has happened, we are among ruins, we start to build up new little habitats, to have new little hopes. It is rather hard work: there is now no smooth road into the future: but we go round, or scramble over the obstacles. We’ve got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen.’

Favorite novel ever?" Has to be Dracula. I've re-read it many times and it still occupies a place of honour on my bookshelf. The perfect vampire horror novel in my books (pun intended).

Is it the best? That's arguable. I've probably read some better written material that just did not grab me enough to make "favorite". I'm a bit skeptical of the whole concept of a "best" novel anyhow because everyone's pick for "best" novel seems to be suspiciously the same as their "favorite". If someone gets their biggest kick from a trashy romance, that's cool as long as they don't expect me to think it's the "best".

H. G. Wells' The War of the Worlds is a close contender, too. One of my favorite sf novels and a seminal one, to boot (first true alien invasion novel, rather than demons or other supernatural beings).


Dracula is brilliant. Have you read The Mysteries of Udolpho by Ann Radcliffe?
No, I have never had such a discussion with my mum.

I think she gave me a book on reproductive biology when I was 12/13 but we never talk about sex.

If I ever have children, I’ll do things very differently.
Maybe not a craving for the taste as much as a craving for the act that results in it.

Plus, the thought of swallowing a load from a meat and dairy consumer just grosses me out these days.
I worked with a Colombian lady who would always call me ‘Maddie girl’ in her rich accent.
I mainly learned from older boyfriends, supplemented with the odd bit of advice from friends.
Potatoes are amazing! I think roast is my all time favourite, I love a jacket spud and chips (fries) covered in salt.
Porridge, made with almond milk and topped with muscovado sugar, flaked almonds and raisins.
Sweet potato, chickpea and spinach curry with brown rice and a colourful salad full of greens, raw veggies, nuts, seeds and fruit.
It did say ‘The Great American Read’, maybe as a Brit I should have kept my nose out.

Recently, PBS aired a short series titled The Great American Read, where they allowed people to vote online for what they thought was the best novel/series ever written.

Personally I think that its a bit ridiculous to have Fifty Shades of Grey in the same list as War and Peace... but I guess this is what reading has become. To Kill a Mocking Bird came out on top which seems like kind of something that people feel like they should say.

Take a look at the list... How many have you read? Which do you think is best? Are there any that you think should be included?

Personally, I'm a little disappointed to see no Victor Hugo on the list.





In my opinion, books like Fifty Shades of Grey, The Twilight Saga, The Da Vinci Code etc. should NOT be on a list titled ‘The Great American Read’ but then my reading tastes have always been stuck in the past, maybe I’m the problem.

I suppose the list highlights how inaccessible people find classic literature which is just such a damn shame! I imagine being forced to read certain books in school doesn’t help the situation either.

I agree, Victor Hugo should have been there. I was sad not to see Thomas Hardy and I don’t think I saw DH Lawrence either (please correct me if I’m wrong).
