(103) You are spared from having to decide which romantic-love poem to read aloud to a hypothetical sex partner of yours in your personal life.

(104) You are spared from being victimized by an unethical, sadistic, and law-breaking Sugar Daddy figure who might otherwise have attempted to take advantage of your own financial weakness by seeking to compel you to have carnal relations with himself.

(105) You are all the more appreciative of the great wisdom behind the Freedom of Association clause of the Bill of Rights. The corollary to that clause is a "Freedom of Non-Association" in regard to individuals whom you have rejected from your own personal life, this corollary having been helpfully confirmed in a recent prior year by at least one first-rate private attorney member of the Austin-based State Bar of Texas state agency of the State Government of Texas.

(106) You are spared from asking your travel agent to please include several of the most romantic vacation destinations for lovebirds when he plans your itinerary for your next leisuretime vacation.

(109) You will have fewer reasons to hear about or talk about Cupid, the Roman god of desire and erotic love who shot arrows into human hearts that inflamed mortals with romantic desire toward a fellow mortal.

(110) You will be more aware of which persons, on an in-person basis, are the very finest and most enjoyable conversation partners for you in regard to non-sexual topics.

(111) You won't have to worry about which first name and which middle name to give to a hypothetical child born out of wedlock that you might have otherwise fathered or given birth to.

(112) You won't have to hire a baby-sitter or day-care center to take care of any child born out of wedlock whom you might otherwise have fathered or given birth to.

(113) You won't have to continually explain to acquaintances of yours why you are the only legal guardian of the child accompanying you on that outing, since you are not married to the other biological parent of that child.

(114) There is no chance that you will forget to buy a birthday present for a child born out of wedlock that you might have otherwise fathered or given birth to.

(115) You won't have to buy any diapers for any infant child born out of wedlock that you might have otherwise fathered or given birth to.

(116) You won't lose any sleep from having to get up in the middle of the night to take care of a crying baby that you might have otherwise fathered or given birth do out of wedlock.


(117) You significantly reduce your risk of contracting cervical cancer or anal cancer that otherwise might have resulted from your having indiscriminate sex with a wide variety of sex partners.

(118) Your risk of an unfavorable afterlife, according to your own religious beliefs as a Christian person whose Christian religion opposes premarital sex, is significantly reduced.

(119) You are more likely to get discovered by a Hollywood movie director as someone who could convincingly portray a lifelong celibate Roman Catholic priest or a lifelong celibate Roman Catholic nun in a Hollywood movie.

(120) You significantly reduce the risk that the complete stranger you just invited into your apartment a few hours after you met him or her in an alcoholic bar or alcoholic nightclub, is himself a violent person who'll point a gun at you and threaten to kill you.

(121) You are spared from the humiliation of learning that the person you'd picked up from a nightclub or bar and promptly had sex with after they assured you that they were single, was, in fact, a married man or married woman.

(122) You are spared from the humiliation of learning that the man you just had sex with is, in fact, a law-breaking pimp who will now ruthlessly attempt to force you into an illicit career as a sexual prostitute under his control.

(123) You are spared from the emotional duress you might otherwise have suffered from learning that the complete stranger you agreed to have sex with after you had just met that individual for the first time ever inside a bar or nightclub, is, in fact, a freelance journalist writing an expose for a foreign magazine about how deplorably easy it is these days to pick up single Americans and have quickie sex with them, "since Americans of today are shockingly promiscuous and immoral," as that cover story featuring photographs of yourself and other citedly promiscuous single Americans might explain.

(124) You are spared from a humiliating scenario in which you are informed that the individual you just had sex with for the first time in your life was, in fact, a minor employed as an undercover agent for a law-enforcement agency. In that hypothetical scenario, the minor employed as an undercover agent had falsely claimed to you that that individual is a legal-status adult. Your cited failure to ask that individual if you could check their date of birth on their driver's license is one of the primary allegations against you to be cited in a court of law in which you are formally accused of a pederastic sex crime, in that hypothetical scenario you are spared from ever being subjected to.

(125) You are encouraged to develop a profound sense of philosophy that does not focus on philosophy of the bedroom.

(126) You are less likely to be asked by an invited guest inside your home whether you have any "sex toys" or whips to offer that guest of yours.

(127) You are less likely to be asked by an invited guest inside your home whether you like to be tied up after getting naked with that individual?

(128) You are less likely to be asked by another human being whether you would "like to become a sex slave" of that individual?

(129) You are less likely to be asked by a visitor inside your home whether you have any musk cologne in the medicine cabinet of your apartment, since "musk cologne is a favorite aphrodisiac of mine, and I have a very difficult time doing it in the bedroom without the powerful scent of musk," as that visitor might otherwise have put it.

(130) You are less likely to be asked by another person to cite your favorite aphrodisiac.

(131) You are less likely to be asked in bed by an anonymous sex partner of yours if you will be willing to pose for a photograph of you that your sex partner wishes to take while you're still in the nude, "since my photo album exclusively features each of my hundreds of sexual conquests," as that person might boast to yourself seconds after he had sex with you. "I take pride in being a 21st Century Casanova."

(132) You are less likely to be asked by a male sex partner of yours if you would like to know what his secret is for having maintained his erection for as many consecutive minutes as he just did inside your bedroom.

(133) You are less likely to be asked by a male sex partner of yours if you would like to know what his secret is for phenomenal sexual prowess in the bedroom, which he feels very sure that he just demonstrated to yourself that night.

(134) You are less likely to be asked by your male sex partner to tell him exactly how many times you achieved an orgasm during your most recent adventure in the bedroom with him, "since I'm very sure you did it multiply with very big numbers," as he might proudly point out to yourself.

(135) You save a lot of money, and a lot of trips to a laundrymat, from not having to wash the sheets and blankets to your bed more than once per week.

(136) You are spared from being told by a complete stranger inside your apartment that you remind that individual of a porno movie star whom he or she has admired quite a bit.

(137) You are spared from being told by a naked stranger inside your apartment that he is a recruiter for a porno movie-making company, and that he had just had sex with you primarily to find out whether you have what it takes to succeed as a porno movie star.

(138) You can successfully thwart any stalker seeking to force you to room with that individual or have sex with that individual, since the U.S. Constitution and American legal system make it very clear that you as a single adult person are NOT required to have sex with anyone or room with anyone in particular, regardless of what the stalker's own "wishes" or "desires" or "fantasies about you" might be.

(139) You are more likely to visit a Roman Catholic monastery in order to learn more about celibate lifestyle options for single adult persons such as yourself.

(140) You are more likely to admire Roman Catholic monks, since it strikes you as likely that those priests living in complete isolation are, in fact, true to their celibacy vow.

(141) You are more likely to pursue a career as a researcher on celibate lifestyles, with yourself possibly pursuing an oral history project in which you interview thousands of long-term celibate adult Americans about what prompted them to choose that lifestyle option for themselves, and what their lives and values are like.

(142) You are more likely to write a best-selling and fully illustrated non-fiction book profiling "Famous Virgins of World History" or "Famous Long-Term Celibate Adult Persons of World History," depending on which of the two book titles would appeal the most to the book publishers you send inquiry letters to.

(143) You are more likely to write a best-selling book deploring the misconception by millions of Americans that long-term adult celibacy in this country is "proof that the long-term celibate is mentally ill and paranoid."

(144) You are more aware than ever of the high percentage of all other single adult Americans who would not have passed a "sobriety test," as you might put it, with yourself defining a "sobriety test" as "asking myself whether I would have actually wanted to get naked and have sexual intercourse with that adult person if each of us were completely sober at the time."

(145) You are more likely to ask yourself whether a person you just met "might make a good candidate for friendship with me" and less likely to ask yourself whether the individual you just met in person "might make a good candidate for sex-partner status with me."

(146) You are less likely to play strip poker with anyone.

(147) You are less likely to risk violating the law by telling a woman that if she agrees to have sex with you, you will hire her for a position of employment she's recently applied for, or you will arrange for her to get a screen test she seeks with a Hollywood director.

(148) You are more likely to write a best-selling non-fiction book with the title, "Virginity and Celibacy in the American Cinema."

(149) You are more likely to leave behind a generous amount of money in your last will and testament toward the establishment of an "American Long-Term Celibacy Research Institute".

(150) You are less likely to be sternly informed by another person that if you had instead lived in Puritan New England during the 17th Century, you would have definitely been branded with the scarlet letter "A" on your chest.

(151) You are less likely to be informed by a male adult stranger inside your bedroom that "after getting a closer look at you tonight as we copulated together in bed, I have to withdraw my previous comment that you'd make a fine centerfold for 'Playboy' magazine. I can see now that the alcohol in my bloodstream exaggerated some of the physical traits I praised you for inside that nightclub."

(152) You are at less risk of being insulted by a complete stranger inside your bedroom who suddenly declares to you that "I cannot understand why you rate so high in the breast department, but you rate so low in the vagina and derriere department. To be in bed with you is like experiencing the very best and the very worst that a lady can offer a man."

(153) You are at less risk of anyone saying to you, "If you were one-tenth as good at conversation as you are in the boudoir, I might consider dating you again. But it's obvious your conversational skills are so weak that I cannot possibly in good conscience continue dating you."

(154) You are at less risk of anyone saying to you, "That sexual climax you just experienced will be your final one with me. I don't believe in having sex with the same person more than once. It would cramp my style."

(155) You are less likely to be told by a complete stranger inside his home, "I lied to you about my career. I'm actually a Sex Trafficking Specialist by occupation, and you are my latest kidnapping victim. Later this week, you'll be a sex slave in a brothel somewhere in eastern Europe. I'll be giving you a mandatory crash course in that foreign language in the meantime."

(156) You are less likely to be asked by a complete stranger inside his private residence, "So tell me, how many positions do you do in the bedroom? I prefer dating those who can do it 100 ways in the bedroom."

(157) You are less likely to regard every phrase and term and word of the English language as a Freudian slip laced with juicy sexual innuendo.

(158) You are less likely to be accused by another person of only knowing bathroom humor.

(159) You won't feel compelled to explain to a complete stranger in your home that "I'm a lot less sexually active than you think I am. The only reason I said 'yes' to you tonight is because
I felt sorry for you inside that nightclub where we met. No one else was responding favorably to you, and that didn't seem fair to you."

(160) You are spared from your most recent sex partner suddenly informing you just after having sex with you that "I forgot to tell you that I have herpes. I'm sorry that it slipped my mind. I guess I was so intoxicated by your beauty during our date tonight that I forgot to tell you about my herpes. I will make it up to you, though, by paying for your first bottle of medication you'll need to temporarily remove the herpes lesions from your body."

(161) You are spared from being told by a complete stranger inside a hotel room, "I've got some good news and some bad news for you, honey. The good news is that I'm HIV-negative. The bad news is that I'm herpes-positive. I would have told you about it if you had asked me. Look at it this way. You still can enjoy a full medical longevity, despite the date we had tonight."

(162) You are spared from being abruptly informed by a male college student inside that individual's hotel room, "Honey, I meant to tell you that my background in football taught me a lot about the value of gang tackling. I hope you don't mind, honey, if several of my former varsity-squad teammates join us tonight inside this hotel room for a fun gang-tackle. It's not going to be gang rape, as long as you say 'yes' to us. And I promise you that you'll be doing lots of multiple orgasms tonight, so you'll be in constant ecstasy all night long. In fact, you might even reach infinity in your ecstasy level, with all the multiplying you'll be doing tonight in bed."

(163) You are spared from hearing "well-intended" personal guidance from acquaintances of yours that "as long as you can't see your sex partner in the dark, you should never be repulsed by that individual. In the dark, even the ugliest or most unsightly person can come across as pleasant, since you enjoy the freedom to yourself imagine that individual as someone else altogether, an individual found in your own favorable-fantasy life who IS, in fact, attractive to and appetizing to yourself."

(164) You have achieved full protection against any risk of any person born more than 12 months before yourself ever attempting to have carnal relations or sexual relations with you in any context at any time, or even seeking to compel you to room with anyone more than 12 months older than yourself in age. That freedom from older persons in your personal life in either of those two contexts can be a source of very great and wonderful relief.

(165) You have more occasions for re-reading American writer James Thurber's 1929 book, "Is Sex Necessary?", in order to yourself politely concur with the author that sex is not, in fact, necessary.

(166) You can save money by choosing not to purchase or read Alex Comfort's famous book, "The Joy of Sex."

(167) You have more incentive to write a best-selling book with the title, "History of Spinsters in the United States."

(168) You have no need to ever write a best-selling book with the title, "101 Ways to Achieve an Orgasm."

(169) You will develop a keener appreciation for the asexual or non-sexual or non-romantic definitions and connotations and sounds of words and terms such as "climax", "erection", "virgin olive oil", "come", "seamen," "titular," "blow," "date," "lover," "lubricant", "partner", "jam", "cherry", "wet", "hot", "heat", ""virgin forest", "wool", "lady killer", "screw", "affair", "eruption", "flood", "hole", "thing", "toy", "slave", "hard", "stiffen", "gymnastics", "thrust", "enter", "bottom", "top", "open", "receptive", "dominant", "passive", "lay", "stripped", "crotch", "trick", "neck", "loose", "doing it", "encounter", "discreet", "tongue", "frigid", "potency", "aids", "flesh", "eager", "beaver", "shot the bird", "wad", "weapon", "tool", "valley", "unzip", "zipper", "quickie", "bang", "oral", and "penetrate."

(170) Your eventual estate after you die is less likely to be subjected to numerous lawsuits in which numerous persons---including dozens of former dating partners of yours and former spouses and former roommates or housemates of yours in your personal life---each demand to be paid a sizable amount of money or given property from your estate, based on their claim in probate court that they had each been "sexually intimate" with you during your lifetime for a specific period of time ranging from one minute in duration to 30 total combined minutes of duration, or even longer in total combined minutes of duration.

(171) You are less likely to be suspected by others of having allegedly committed the crime or possible crime of pederasty or extortionism or bribery or blackmail or attempted enslavement of a human being, or intergenerational exploitation of younger persons, when you are generous toward, and express keen enthusiasm and appreciation for, several or many of the younger persons whom you like or admire or love.

(172) You can pursue other forms of vigorous exercise that provide you with better cardiovascular stimulation and strengthen a greater variety of muscles on your body than participating in the sex act per se would have accomplished for you.

(173) You won't be as likely to hear your life described by others as featuring a triangle of any type.

(174) You will have fewer occasions for pondering romantic-love triangles in your own life whenever you fly near Bermuda, and the famous Bermuda Triangle, on a commercial airline flight.

(175) You are more likely to write to the Mayor of Dallas, Texas, and politely request that an existing street in Dallas be re-named "Just Friends Lane", thereby serving visitors to Dallas and current Dallas residents who don't feel comfortable with the world-famous "Lovers Lane" in that north Texas city.

(176) You are less likely to be accused by anyone of yourself falsely stating that you are suffering from a headache, with the accuser in that scenario adding that you obviously did not want to have sex with that individual at that particular time and that the "headache complaint" was merely a pretext for your lack of sexual desire toward that individual.

(177) You are less likely to hear anyone ask you which of the vitamin or mineral supplements that you ingest on a daily basis account for your "legendary success in the bedroom."

(178) You are less likely to ever hear anyone pose the accusatory-sounding question to you, "Aren't you too old to be having sex, during this period of your life? Why can't you be like the many senior citizens who limit their exercise to going back and forth on a rocking chair?"

(179) You are less likely to ever hear anyone say to you, "You are a lot better looking when you're fully attired. Have you thought of retiring from any further pursuits in the nude, during this period of your life when you primarily elicit winces from anyone having to look at you in that condition?"

(180) You have fewer reasons for telling dirty jokes to anyone, and you also have fewer reasons for listening to dirty jokes from anyone else.

(181) You have more incentive for reading books profiling great non-sexual or strictly-platonic personal relationships of world history, including the famous personal friendship in the 1950s and 1960s between Former First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt and Illinois Governor Adlai Stevenson.

(182) You are more likely to lead an Involuntary Huggers' Rights Movement that protects the legal right of individuals NOT wishing to be embraced or hugged or kissed by another person in any context, to enjoy full freedom from an involuntary embrace, an involuntary hug, or an involuntary kiss, regardless of whether any such embrace, hug, or kiss would have occurred with both individuals being fully clothed at the time. Your Involuntary Huggers' Rights Movement could file lawsuits and seek financial compensation on behalf of individuals who were infected with herpes of the lip when a herpes sufferer kissed them without obtaining their prior permission for that kiss.

(183) You are more likely to enhance your personal appreciation for the virgin Greek Goddess Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom, while lowering your personal estimation of the Greek Goddess Aphrodite, the Greek Goddess of Romantic Love.

(184) You will have fewer occasions for having to figure out how to remove a brassiere from a woman's body.

Why I'm More Inclusive Toward a Higher Percentage of Heterosexual Men and Heterosexual Women

Many Central Texans have asked me why I identify with, and am myself willing to be receptive toward and congenially inclusive toward, a higher percentage of all heterosexual adult men and all heterosexual adult women than of the adult homosexual, adult gay, adult lesbian, adult bisexual, adult transsexual, and adult transvestite subpopulations.

Among the dozens of reasons for my own law-abiding and politely conveyed form of heterophilia, as I call it, are the following:

--A higher percentage of all heterosexual men (as compared with all homosexual men, all gay men, and all bisexual men, in particular) have never once lain a hand on another male person in any context in which the latter individual accused the former individual of sexual impropriety or indicated to the former individual that he was himself guilty of sexual impropriety or "romantic impropriety" toward the latter male individual.

In my entire life, I myself have never once lain a hand on another male person with sexual impropriety or "romantic impropriety" at any time, and on NO OCCASION in my entire life has any male person ever once stated to me or indicated to me or alleged to me that I had allegedly wronged him in any such manner or context.

---A higher percentage of all heterosexual men (as compared with all homosexual men, all gay men, and all bisexual men, in particular) would agree in response to a questionnaire providing them with that two-word descriptive term that they regard themselves as being "politely aggressive" and also "conscientious" in their own personal style and career-related style.

I regard myself as being politely aggressive and also conscientious in my own personal style and career-related style.

---A higher percentage of all heterosexual adult men (as compared with all homosexual adult men, all gay male adult persons, and all bisexual adult men, respectively) have never once on any occasion in the last 10-year period ever at any time directly asked any other adult male person to have sex with themselves.

I myself will always decline to ever at any time during the 21st Century of my own life ever on any occasion have carnal relations with, or have sex at any time with, any adult person more than one year older than myself in legal age (i.e., any adult person born more than one year BEFORE my own date of birth).

---A higher percentage of all heterosexual adult men (as compared with all bisexual adult men, all homosexual adult men, all effeminate male adult persons, and all gay male adult persons) have only once or never in the most recent 10-year period ever been approached in person by a person stating that that individual seeks to have sex with, or seeks to go out on a romantic date with, himself.

I myself in the most recent 10-year period have either only on one total occasion or never myself been approached in person by a person stating to me that that individual seeks to have sex with me, or seeks to go out on a romantic date with me.

---A higher percentage of all heterosexual men (as compared with all homosexual male adult persons, all gay male adult persons, and all bisexual male adult persons, in particular) in the last 20-year period have repeatedly or on several noteworthy occasions, or on at least one significant occasion, been directly told in person by other human beings that they themselves as individuals are "straight", "too straight", "dependable", "honest", "very honest", "idealistic", "conscientious", "someone very similar to the Roman Empire", "trustworthy", "polite", "someone so pure and idealistic that you would have thrived in 19th Century Victorian England", "a NARC", "an FBI agent", "a CIA agent", "an attorney", "a learned man", "a good candidate for President of the United States," "scandal-free", "square", "too square", "similar to a clergyman", "a true gentleman", or "a gentleman and a scholar", or words so to that effect.
