Firstly, 'at' is as far to 'about' as Britain is to Saudi.

Secondly, you vote for cutting their tongues out, I bet they'd vote for putting some brains into the empty heads of the ones who can't figure out why they moan.

I believe that their vote is going to be constructive , whereas yours is clearly destructive.

I don't think so, the tongue in cheek remark is exactly what every man thinks who has been in a long term relationship
How many times has your missus just talked non stop after you have walked thru the door after work? I bet everyone would be glad for a bit of quiet time

Mine is just banter to your tongue in cheek response.

As a long term missus, I've been at the receiving end of perpetual moaning instead. So you get all sorts in both sexes.

I still won't like to get their tongue in cheek out to cut it off, though. I'd just use either selective hearing or dissociate with their moaning with my usual "hm......hm........hm........" only to frustrate them to say- "You're not listening!"

Christ! Go for a beer or a jog, man! Talk to a tree, if you like! Just leave me alone!

LOL

Hm, you would know well about yourself being in a same sex relationship. No one else would.

Anyway, don't worry. We heterosexuals won't think any less of you.

Some Saudi princess was claiming asylum here ( housed with my girlfriend for a short time) , didn't like way she was being treated daddy.
So it kind of is our business. Some 'minders' apparently turned up looking for her, but she'd gone. As far as I know she went home eventually, grudgingly
