Your captors do give you the option of a lifetime supply of chocolate or a cheerful, always "ready and willing" femme fatale. Which do you pick to take with you?


I'd have to go for the femme fatale. Then, when my captors weren't looking (as per Bond movies), I'd request my good lady to smuggle as much of my captors' bountiful stores of chocolatey goodness with her as she was able.

Even if it is only lust, I'll take that over chocolate.

Dear denise,
You'll be soooooorrrrry!!!! The lustful urge is quickly satiated, and if there's no love, the two participants soon grow sick and tired of each other. But chocolate - ah, chocolate. Age cannot wither nor custom stale its infinite variety.
Regards,
John

I guess if a chocolate bar wasn't more than 200 calories to consume,
Always came in exquisite quality (not that cheap, tasteless, generic brand),
Had no side effects or gimmicks whatsoever that could cause agitation, restlessness, or regret, only comfort....

.. oops, sorry.. typo: replace "chocolate bar" with "man".

continued: then I'd definitely still pick chocolate.

Like Leroy, I am not a fan of chocolate...so I would choose love. Having someone to talk with, fight with, touch etc...would be worth more to me.

I can (and have) lived without giving in to neither lust nor chocolate. I'd prefer love, with all its communication, compromise, sacrifice, commitment, etc.

I don't know what to prefer:
a) a femme fatale who gets so sunburnt in the desert aht she cannot
lie on any of her sides, let alone have me on top of her;
b) chocolate that melts in the fierce sun of the desert before I
touch it.

I know sugar is bad for me and that sex is good and with so much working against you on the island I would not want to compound matters by sacraficing my health. I also know that I think about sex and do something about it much more often than with chocolate.

LOVE: i want some! But what is it? Some sort of social construct with differing versions appearing every where you go? I want friendship, intimacy and sex in a pretty package. I don't believe that love should be filled withboth fun times and sad times due to fighting. Friends should be able to communicate enough to avoid conflict, non? Just cause you are intimate doesn't mean that you can't give someone some space when they are being irritable, non? Can't a guy and girl have a rewarding friendshipship just as same sex friends do? Why not. Is it because women view they act of gratifying a man's sexual urge as a service to be reimbursed with financial and or emotional compensation. By emotional compensation i mean feeling entitled to have more than equal control over the partnership and an unwillingness to compromise?

I'm not trying to be a flame magnet, just looking for some answers is all!

Hmm, should I dare to point this out? Heck, why not? Regarding sex, well as many of you might already be aware, a partner is not an essential requirement in satisfying one's lust. Now, anyone want to tell me how you can get the same satisfaction from chocolate when you've got no chocolate?
Regards,
John

With pleasure Slatty ol' boi

Either a can of coke and/or a nicely size pot of Haggen Daaz ice cream gives you the same kick...
