Susie Bright is making me kind of sad today. But only kind of. Here's the thing. If the motivating force behind the lack of libido she's talking about is people becoming estranged from their authentic desires due to stress, overwork, anxiety, chemical imbalance, etc., that's clearly no good. On the other hand, if the desire to have sex all the time was a cultural imposition on the authentic desires of these guys, then good for them that they can say "You know, I'm really more into _________." Or whatever. In general, I'm in favor of people knowing what they want, and admitting to what they want. It increases the odds that at some point they'll actually get what they want. (Unless, of course, what they want is to strip naked at work and roll in the blood of kittens, or whatnot, in which case admitting to what they want makes it more likely they'll get counselling. Which could be okay too.)

So in my usual not particularly scientific but curious manner, I want to know what you guys want. Indulge me, would you?

Also, new icon.

This very minute, it's lunchtime. My id is hungry. At about 2:30 p.m., however, my id will want a nap. :)

My id is exercising and on a diet, in the guise of discipline for and devotion to my patron. My id would kill would for a big pot of macaroni and cheese with a side of guacamole about now.

Just did the first, thanks... about to have second, eighth, possibly fifth, possibly a DVD with a pal, and finally fourth. Sixth would be an expensive smartphone, maybe soon.

Sometimes, life is good.

Well done, sir. Well done indeed.

Of the bunch, I can get food/books/material items myself, don't drink/smoke/indulge in chemical alteredness, and I've just slept for about two days straight.

So, sex.

Sex and books, please!

All of the above?

You know what I really want, above all of those, sounds too much like a girly-thing to admit publicly ...

I am often unbearably horny, but not today for some reason. I'm in a mental mood right now. So I vote for a book and a snack, and possibly a drink, followed by a nap.

But if I actually saw the person, or smelled them, well that would probably change my answer.

I like the new icon.

I was somewhat torn. The meal, though, was the only thing that stuck out as something I could really, really use.

Well, until I saw the $20.

But I decided that the meal would be better in the long run.

I'll take the nap. Right now I don't feel especially well. Now, if the same being would magically cure me, then I'd take the sex LOL

I was torn between a nap and a good book, so I voted none of the above.

At this moment I would take a nap above all the others, because that is the only thing on the list that I don't expect to obtain in the immediate-to-near future.

However, on a more general level, I think I would choose #1 about 40-50% of the time. I'm older than I used to be, you see, and my stamina is waning. Plus, a man can survive longer without sex than he can without food or sleep.

Now 20 out of 33...

...with nothing else ranking above a three. I'd say that pretty well clinches it for me. The people, they want the sex. Mostly. Enough to call them the majority. Wait...I ended up in the majority for something...aside from being a 30 something white male? I'll be damned. Well, I likely was already, so never you mind that part. Anywho, we want sex.

You just had to title it "What do you want?" didn't you?

That said, I went ahead and answered #1 because that's what I would usually pick. Right now sleep is running a really close second but might well still be second, even though I'm tired.

Honestly, my anatomy keeps me from having sex quite as much as I'd like. Our smallest cat is Chantilly Lace, otherwise generally known as Tilly. (I promise, this'll get relevant in a moment.) She's like half the size of any of the other cats in the house, and she talks. Or rather, bitches. All the time. She loves loves loves attention, but will complain about it the entire time. And then complain more when you stop.

We realized the other day that she and my snatch have a lot in common.

(Via, if you're reading this, stop reading now.)

And Joel is freakin' huge. Ow. I pretty much have to be in a masochistic mood to get into penetration with him.

Anyway.

I want them all.

I know this surprises you, hobbit that I am, but I chose the one I want right now, and that would, of course be sex.

Um Sex please. (As if you hadn't already guessed.)
