Ok, they have a point…
I think this might be one of the best viral videos ever. How many times have you looked at your gay BFF and wished he would just marry you?
“We will make your girlfriend a quiche in the morning?”
“We will go to the gym with your girlfriend and get her pinkberry after as a reward.”

Sorry I offended you last time I posted. Just saw that didn’t mean it as harsh as it probably sounded…anywhoooo…I think this video and women’s interest in gay men whips up a fundamental issue. I know that if I didn’t love vagina and breasts so much, I would have relatively little use for female companionship at all. I know a lot of guys feel this way. In other words, women seem to like the female quality of gay dudes because they relate to them on the same level, except they have penises so it feels like a heterosexual relationship on some level. Many guys have so little in common with women, especially once in an LTR, it’s a near-constant battle of wills, excessive compromise, divergent interests and completely different world-views. That whole Mars-Venus thing. Not to say we can’t live together, but truthfully, outside of sex and other non-sexual intimacy, many men would almost rather always be with the guys or alone. Of course, the sex and non-sexual intimacy are important and probably create the primal need for relationships but as most people can attest, LTRs are almost never what they are cracked up to be. Gay guys conceptually provide women with all the things they like about other women or themselves, with the few pluses about being with a man. Except that it’s an illusion…or a cruel joke. At the end of it all, I aspire to be married someday, at least I think so, mostly because I want children. I haven’t found too many women I’ve dated who would make fit mothers, not even a little bit, so I haven’t been too introspective about lovin’/leavin’ them. I know a lot of guys look at things this way. If she ain’t gonna be any good at having kids some guys basically look at it as two tits, a hole and a heartbeat, as some old comedian used to say. I wish you the best in your dating life but the incompatibility you write about is a two-way street and a lot of women are just looking at it for what’s in it for them. I hate that dating failure seems to stereotypically be pinned on guys for their shortcomings. It’s almost always attributable to both people, at least in part. Guys are stupid, but we ain’t all THAT stupid. When I meet women like that, which is like every week it seems, I go from trying to get to know them to trying to bed them and moving on. A real life battle of the sexes, I guess.
Sorry to be crass but I am PrinceFuckingCharming after all. Bet you never thought someone with such a shallow handle would leave a long message on your blog. I really am sorry if you were hurt by my previous post but I really do enjoy your blogs and am hoping it works out for you. This blog is almost like a real-life version of a romantic comedy, so I will check in every so often to see how it ends.
Hey Prince,
Thanks for the comment – I appreciate it and am glad you’re still reading. And yes, you did offend me and several of my others readers last time you commented (everyone is entitled to their opinion, but there is no reason to be rude). But, such is life. If you want to look at my blog as a romantic comedy, (from your mouth to the studios ears and I become the next Julie and Julia), but I’m really just living my life. I whole-heartedly disagree with you on long term relationships. I know people who have been married for 50 years who still love each other. The problem is that people think relationships are easy. Newsflash – they’re not. Romantic relationships, friendships, etc. they are all hard and all need constant work. I hope you find the “mother” out there you are looking for, but maybe you shouldn’t have such a debbie downer outlook on women in general. And, I hope you don’t think I have that outlook on men. A lot of the time, I’m well aware that it’s me they don’t like – accepting that is always the hard part, but I keep trudging on. Happy dating.
Jeezus, I just saw it posted and it’s waaaaaay longer than I thought. Sorry.
Love my gay bestie Louis! Except sometimes he’s even too girlie for a girl if you know what I mean. That’s the thing you don’t seem to get, Prince, we like what we have in common with gay guys but after all we just want a man to be a man. With a soft side. You seem angry. Love me some Ems (so Revengy-sounding)!
Stop it… you like Revenge too? Oh, Izzy… I adore you.
I like my gay friends but mostly I just want a real man!
