    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I love gardening, and power tools, and using power tools in the garden. I went over to a friend's house this morning and cut down a whole hedge of horrible red tip photinias for her with my reciprocal saw. THEN I went to (my fave store) Home Depot and they had a gas edger on sale which I had to have it so it came home with me.

Spent the whole day doing yard work, trimming trees and rose bushes, and still have lots more to do tomorrow but my poor muscles, back and legs, are killing me.

When I used to have husbands around (one at a time) (before I divorced them) I would take a nice hot bath and let them massage my back and relax me after all my yardwork.

I give a truly celestial backrub myself, but after a day of gardening I would be selfish and just accept their ministrations.

Now I got no husbands since I got rid of all of them. Sigh. LOL. But those nice backrubs are definitely what men are good for......

Are any of the rest of y'all back massage fans?

I've had a mixed bag of experiences with men giving backrubs, but that's probably due to how screwed up my spinal alignment is since I haven't been going to a chiropractor for nearly 4 years. I've had male coworkers completely screw my back up, and I've had dates relax me with strong hands.

Men are also good for oil pans. I have everything else I need to change my oil, except a suitable driveway and an oil pan, which many males have readily available.
 
lol i was born with the skills of giving good foot massages its funny cause all my sisters girlfriends (who are like 19) pay me 2 bucks a foot for massages lol hey it pays for a couple rats a week
 
Oh MY!?!?!

Female chauvinism? Lady pig-o-try? Can we all say, "OINK"? Is this ALL that men are good for? Are we just "chopped liver"? "Sliced pizza"? "Just rub my back and take your ass out to the curb"!

LOL

My direct response to THIS is that "men and backrubs" are like "men and other things". It's about selection. You get what you pay for. Men that WANT to give you good back rubs.......will. They will enjoy it too. It's also about reciprocation. Afterall, (hope I don't get any warning points for this) the best back rubbers aren't in it to please themselves.......but their partner.

Touche'

JS
 
Bed Partner gives wonderful massages...not just back massages, but from scalp-to-toe massages. Sometimes I consider it excellent foreplay, other times I just doze off because it relaxes me so much. So yes, I looooove a good massage.

The other things men are good for? Lifting objects over 20 lbs (I have a bad back and can't lift above that) and for getting things off the top shelf so I don't have to dig up the stepstool. Yeah, I'm kinda short too.

Truer words were never spoken!!!!! Reciprocation goes a long way with me, cause I don't expect anything I'm not willing to give myself.
That being said, on people with back problems, there is a level of skill/knowledge required that all the good intentions in the world can't make up for. Locking the muscles in the wrong position is a bad idea, so a full body massage from the scalp to the arms to the legs would be a better idea.

Thanks guys, just when I was starting to feel content with being single, you have to bring up my all time favorite thing, scalp massages. I swear, if someone gives me a scalp massage I am relaxed for days.... purr]

And you can't give yourself a scalp massage, and you can't ask a friend to do it. You need a boy/girlfriend.

..... and just when I was finally accepting being single.......

thanks a lot :p
 
I cant speak for all the guys but I can tell you what I am good for.....

1 making a woman feel like a woman

2 humpin

3 cooking

4 humpin

5 I can build stuff

6 humpin

7 My back rubs are ok but I give a killer foot massage..... I can work a chic into jello if she puts her feet in my lap....

8 I bet you thought I was gonna say humpin again....LOL :dgrin:
 
My hubby is wonderful with massages, but he has so many other attributes that one doesn't even make the Top Ten!

If you have a man that's only good for backrubs, hire a masseuse and save yourself the trouble!!!
 
I don't really get into scalp or foot massages but I LOVE good backrubs. I am fixing to do a bunch of yardwork this weekend, wish I had someone to give me a backrub but they all got divorced. Sigh.

I know this is off topic (so sue me) but the subject of scalp massages made me think of what kind of public touches are sexiest. I think touching someone's hair is very erotic, as is lightly touching their lips. The lip thing I can understand as there is a physiological reason: lips have MANY nerve endings compared to many other parts of the body; but the hair thing is a mystery.

I dunno,are y'all chopped liver?
 
So, I reckon it's safe to say that women are good for bringing back dead posts to life? ;)

Geez.... After reading this thread, I feel so spoiled. Or maybe I'm just easily pleased. My fiance of 8 yrs does practically everything except the dishes. He'll go out in freezing cold weather to go to the store to get chocolate for me when I'm having a bad day. (Like last night, I got Toblerones!) Anyway, I plan on keeping him around for a long, long time.
Men aren't useless, when you have the right man, it's all good.

When you have the wrong man, a lot of it is still good.....

Seriously, it sounds like your guy is a real winner, you are blessed.

I will answer this question on my own behalf:

1) I bench 425, so carrying heavy items over one's threshold is no problem. ;)
2) I can make a woman feel hot even if she is bloated like a small whale.
3) I can overlook a woman's need to spend 2 hours doing her hair as I know she finds self worth in her beauty.
4) I can pull up the zipper on the back of your dress or down as the case may be. :dgrin:
5) I can hold your purse while you try on a dress, and I have mastered the "I am just holding this for my wife" look. No awkwardness here!
6) I can grab pair number 62 of your patent leather Christian Louboutin pumps off the highest shelf in our closet without using a step ladder.
7) I am the one holding the Louisville slugger walking through the house because you heard the infamous bump in the night.
8) I can dance and buy my wife a drink much better than any vibrator ever has or ever will.
9) I can make my wife feel like she just came out of a harlequin romance novel at the drop of a hat.
10) I can give my wife the greatest gift of all.......hearing the word mommy.

The fact of the matter, is that women need men and vice versa. While the two components can equate to a plethora of painful events, it can also generate the most exciting, erotic and mutually satisfying life that could never be accomplished apart.

Wow, I think the greatest gift that you gave your wife, is the gift of YOU!! Glad to see that men can be happily married......good for you Bob!!

On a different note, I love to have a man brush my hair, I find that very erotic and not an easy job to do with my hair.....(it's to the middle of my butt)
