As a guy in my raging - or not so raging, depending on the week - 20s, I know a few things. Here's one thing I know:
In the game of sex, we're always losing. We're always behind. We know girls have the upper hand and we're constantly trying to compensate for our lagging. But here's the worst part:
We're always losing, even after the deed is done. Thing is, as teens, we guys think the ultimate victory is obvious: Sex. If we get it, we're good to go, and it doesn't really matter what happens afterward. We figure that if we get involved in a long-term relationship, that's cool, 'cuz then we can get sex whenever we want it. No more trolling for tail; we've got what we want at home. And if it doesn't turn into anything serious, well, we got it once, so we feel confident we can get it again.
But either way, we end up behind again. What...the...hell?!
Guys who have been in long-term relationships - married men, here's your chance to share your wisdom - know full well that sex is never a foregone conclusion. Guys who are "serial daters" (I guess you girls call them "players"), regardless of their exhibited confidence level, are really only seeking a decent batting average. A player who hits .300 is a freakin' All-Star for a reason; even the best "players" in the game probably don't have that average when it comes to scoring.
So, girls, here's a plea on behalf of all sexually-inclined males everywhere: In 2016, the white flag is up and we're admitting defeat. We know you'll always have the upper hand, before and after. We know we have to play catch-up, agonize over the right thing to say and do, and regardless of whether we're free or involved, we'll always be just a tad confused.
WE ADMIT IT. And we're asking for mercy. Just a little. We know you can win blindfolded and with both hands tied behind your back, so how's about taking the occasional dive? Give us a fighting chance and we promise we'll be happy with that, m'kay?
