I never really understood Anal Sex. To me, it's the equivalent of plunging ur penis into a SEPTIC TANK repeatedly. All that bile & stomach acid, has to take a toll on the old peter.

@TheFragile89 DOes this ("I'm just sexual") include animals? All of them? Surely not

[FUOPEC1]

@timjdong anal sex seems very popular with gay men and straight men and women these days.

He had to come out publicly to show he was gay!!!? I could have told you he was a chutney ferret back in the 90's!

[JohnyM91]

I had no idea he was gay til just now and it hasnt affected my view of him or his music, people need to get over these things.

[redrusty66]

blah blah blah, another "i'm so above it all" lame ass, makes another lame ass "I'm so above it all" statement about not making statements, which is the biggest lame ass statement about being a lame ass self absorbed drama queen that any lame ass drama queen could ever make. Yeah yeah and I am, Doll Parts, I fake it so real I am beyond fake.
