Well What Do You Say to That?

On Sundays, I grab 25 mild catalogs (no vibes in them) and drive around, stopping at salons, pubs, etc. until they are gone.

Today, with only about 5 catalogs left, I pulled into Lords and Ladies Hair Salon. It was a typical city salon, with a group of about 7 women drinking coffee, gossiping and getting dyed. Typical, that is, until I looked closer and realized that 4 (possibly more) of the women were not...well, women.

Hey that's cool-I'm not mad at ya. But, at this point I had already told them that I was there to talk to them about Pure Romance. So, I needed to go through with my "30 second commercial." I think it may have been awkward to turn around and swiftly remove myself from the situation after I had already initiated conversation with these lovely ladies. So, I pretended I didn't notice that they were 6 feet tall with a 5 'o clock shadow.

I smiled and talked and left my information and got the hell out. Actually, one of the women (with a vagina) ended up being a pretty good party lead. I would love to know how hard they were laughing at after I left.

Cultural Interpretations

Had lunch today with my Chinese friend. I obviously wanted to invite her to my first Pure Romance party coming up on May 9. I haven't known her that long so the conversation went as follows:

Me: Did you get the invite to Angie's party?
F: No
Me: Well, are you offended by sexual things?
F: What, like an orgy!?
Me: No, No (show her catalog) products like these...
F: Well, I don't use this stuff. In China we are very conservative.
Me: Really?
F: Yes but in Japan they would love this stuff. The men have very small penises.
Me: Laughing
F: In China we don't even talk about sex with our girlfriends.
Me: Wow...
F: Yes, especially the single ones. If you talk too much about sex they think you are making fun of them because they aren't getting any.


Have been laughing ever since. Didn't sell her on the products but it was fun trying.
