How owning a Ducati is like dating a stripper

[muskrat]

call me crazy but I thought this thread was funny.  It didn't seem offensive to me but if it were I'd simply NOT look at this thread.  Kinda like Skinemax (don't subscribe), which I like.

Before the thread was locked and unlocked I was going to post that I thought it was interesting to note the person trying to defend the sensitivities of females was the one to start announcing misogynist attitudes (that's just the way it read to me).

One of the things that I like about the board is that most of the time we are not too PC ... and we can allow ourselves to laugh at the odd thoughts that enter our (somewhat twisted) minds.

In saying that ... are male strippers high maintenance as well? If you looked at the thread that way ... there can't be any compaints about misogynistic behaviour

I work in an industry where I work with literally EVERY walk of life. Some of my best friends are exotic dancers of BOTH genders. One was laughing her butt off over my commentary on Ducati ownership (she owns one). We have lunch about three times per month in a professional capacity, as I am her hair dresser.

I am a married man now, and my wife is NOT a stripper. I never really said that I had dated an exotic dancer.

And yes, male strippers are as high IF NOT HIGHER maintenance than their female counterparts.

Thanks for getting the gist (and humour) of the initial message.

Thank you very much.

I would have to agree with that.

How did this get so serious  What ever happened to our sense of humor.  Geesh.  We can't even have fun with stereotypes of strippers and expensive high maintenance motos!  In my life I've been close to 3 strippers.  One was my GF briefly and the other two were very close friends.  I'd say that all of them were very different and none of them fit a stripper stereotype.  The GF made no demands on me and expected no expensive gifts. The other two did to some degree fit the stereo type of the resourceful Alaskan tough woman.  Attractive and strong, able to charm, at home in carhartts, and experts at cleaning salmon.  My old monster however, does fit the stereotype.  It was always breaking down.  It was expensive to keep running.  It got me lots of attention including greater interest from the woman that later became my wife. 

So, can we get back to having fun.  If your not interested in a  this may not be the thread for you.

Thank you.

Yes, the girls I know don't generally fit the stereotype; however- they know a few who definitely fit the stereotype and tell me many stories!!!!

Yes, my bike DEFINITELY fits the stereotype, unfortunately...

Damn, something must be wrong with my bike... it's more like one of them wild Alaskan bush women... reliable, doesn't need much attention, and is perfectly happy with having the shit flogged out of it.

How dare you speak of Alaskan women in this fashion!  I used to date several Alaskan husky busy bushy women and they were nothing like what you have described...

Now- it's the Alaskan husky busy women you have to look out for

But let's talk about the gifts and plastic surgery- My Monster has had a tail tuck, and has several new pieces of jewellery; and I did NOT mind spending ONE penny on her.

[Artful]

My Monster is just working its way through college, don't you dare judge it.

[bunnyman666]

IS she going through Medical or Law school? How many apartment building could have paid for with the money you spent on her? How many does she own?

There is nothing in the guidelines of this board that remotely suggest that the members police themselves or anyone else.

If any of you have an issue with any post use the RTM button.

You know, you're right. I was under the mistaken impression that when someone posts something intended to be funny but you find slightly objectionable that you should throw a little hissy fit about it. But I was wrong.

I don't much care for the Mommy and Daddy Button, but I see the error of my ways. I apologize for interrupting such a hilarious and informative thread. So let's see, where were we . . .

Hahahahahahahaha . . .     Too funny!  Hahahahahaha . . .       That's awesome! Now I see the humor! I think perhaps it was all just going over my head. A bit too highbrow for me and I'm none too bright sometimes. But I wanna play too! Let's see, um . . .

How is riding a Ducati like dating a stripper?

when I'm not using her I keep her locked in the garage.   

Sometimes when she doesn't perform properly I have to stick a screw driver in her.   


Thanks for straightening me out Nate. These newly acceptable abusing women/motorcycles jokes are going to be a great addition to the DMF. You were right, this is just all in good fun!
