Geoff:
It's not that we live on different planets - we just read different books
and move in different circles.
Perhaps the sultry romance novels are in the Mills and Boon category
which are definitely NOT on the reading list of males in the UK; discussion
among guys I know has rarely considered the size of male organs since
I was in my teens.
