retsuud Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 Essays by Michel de Montaigne.Women are to blame to entertain us with that disdainful, coy, and angry countenance, which extinguishes our vigor, as it kindles our desire; which made the daughter-in-law of Pythagoras say, “That the woman who goes to bed to a man, must put off her modesty with her petticoat, and put it on again with the same.” The soul of the assailant, being disturbed with many several alarms, readily loses the power of performance; and whoever the imagination has once put this trick upon, and confounded with the shame of it (and she never does it but at the first acquaintance, by reason men are then more ardent and eager, and also, at this first account a man gives of himself, he is much more timorous of miscarrying), having made an ill beginning, he enters into such fever and despite at the accident, as are apt to remain and continue with him upon following occasions.Thoughts?

someone555 Posted October 27, 2014 Report Share Posted October 27, 2014 translation:if a guy fucks a girl, and somehow messes it up, it will remain an emotional burden/block for him every time he tries to fuck againUnless that girl is a virgin (or perhaps their first time with eachother) then its not so bad since she doesnt know any better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
