Dear Woman: Not all men are gay.
Dear Man: Of course not.
Dear Woman: Not all women are lesbians.
Dear Man: Is this some sort of homophobic rant?
Dear Woman: No, not at all. My point is, men get along really well with each other without sex, as do women.
Dear Man: That’s why society insists that men and women have differences which create incompatibility.
Dear Woman: No, that’s wrong. That’s not the reason. The reason is that heterosexual men and women lead with sex. They try to find a passion of romance instead of a reason for conversation. So in the gay or lesbian community, they have the same problem. They fight like cats and dogs, just like heterosexuals.
Dear Man: Well, actually it would be cats and cats, and dogs and dogs…
Dear Woman: Very cute. Our culture has taught us to look at the opposite sex as a means for gratifying our physical needs. And then we wonder, when the thrill of that sexuality plays out, why people grow disinterested.
Dear Man: Well, how would you change that? Men are always going to look at women as potential partners in the bedroom. And women do the same thing in their own style.
Dear Woman: It doesn’t have to be that way. Men who aren’t gay still have passion for each other if they become involved in a common cause–like war, family, politics, sports, business…
Dear Man: Well, women, too.
Dear Woman: Exactly. But it works because the passion is always in the third position, not the primal one. If you try to get football players worked up to win a game, and they have no business or friendship with each other, nothing clicks.
Dear Man: I see what you mean. You’re saying that the problem is that we advertise sex so much in this country, that once the impact of the original fling is over, we have no real interest, so we terminate the overwrought passion.
Dear Woman; I couldn’t have said that better myself. Whether you’re religious or not, the tale of the Garden of Eden does lay it out correctly, and shows where things went astray. God gave Adam and Eve business and friendship, and He assumed that passion and family would spawn from that. But the minute Adam saw Eve, he was sexually drawn to her, and because the relationship was “bone and flesh,” as he put it, they didn’t develop the business and friendship that was necessary to keep them from falling apart.
Dear Man: That’s wild. And so true. So at a very early age we should have boys and girls work together, develop friendships, and then see what sparks in passion.
Dear Woman: It’s why when people have affairs, they usually happen with someone they work with. The work stimulates closeness which leads to a friendship with laughter and interaction, lending itself to passion. But if you start off with passion, you’ve got nowhere to go.
Dear Man: Or you end up trying to force a friendship and a business.
Dear Woman: So even though folks think it’s immoral, people living together before marriage might be a successful project, if there was no sex involved. They could prove that working their business together could grow into a deep-rooted friendship.
Dear Man: So if it begins with passion, it will soon lose its fashion.
Dear Woman: You rhymed!
Dear Man: I’d like to say I did it on purpose, but that would be a lie.
Dear Woman: We begin with business–a common goal, which leads to friendship–a common feeling, and ends up with passion–a common pleasure.
Dear Man: I like that. Common goal, common feeling, common pleasure. If we take that path, we are constantly feeding the excitement for one another with the new experiences of our business and friendship.
Dear Woman: And if we don’t, we’re depending on our bodies to keep it interesting.
Dear Man: That’s too much to ask of “any-body.”

G-Poppers … December 1st, 2017

Many years ago, G-Pop suggested to his children that they celebrate December 1st as “Life With Style New Year”–not that there was anything particularly wrong with a January 1st startup on the calendar.
But because Christmas is such a special season, it just seemed natural to G-Pop that the year should commence with Yuletide sentiments.
It is a simple celebration–a time to welcome the Prince of Peace to a world that’s not very peaceful; to smile on a baby born in a manger to a planet that has somewhat forgotten the total safety of children; and to acknowledge once again that we are heart, soul, mind and body people, and each part of us needs to hum at a sweet vibration in order for our entire beings to be satisfied.
The heart needs joy.
The soul needs humility.
The mind needs creativity.
And the body needs temperance.
Even though sadness will come into our emotions, we become mature when we understand that our weeping needs to cease, allowing a new morning of joy to dawn.
Although we may feel greatly spiritually blessed by God’s love, we all must humbly remember how it is grace that covers our multitude of sins.
And merely using the mind to recollect instead of expanding ourselves with new ideas is a waste of good brain power.
And of course, the body should have license for nourishment and pleasure–as long as we don’t do too much.
December 1st is a day to rejoice in the birth of possibilities, the nurturing of peace and the joy that we humbly and creatively practice in temperance.
So from G-Pop and his family: Happy Life With Style New Year.
May the Christmas Season bring you all the wonderment it was intended to give.
