Thanks Neal, for all the bad sex.

Men don't get what cybersex is for women. Women love words and verbalizing feelings. IRL(in real life), a man would rather swallow drain cleaner and smoke a cigarette than talk about feelings or express his pleasure over the satiny glow of a woman's thigh. Online, the anonimity seems to bring out the Neruda in all men. Their prose fills with emotion, it become turgid, priapismic, brilliantly luminous and oh, so evocative. They are free to write what their lips cannot say. And women, women cannot get enough of this cyber-sonnet courting. It lets them see the men that they always believed existed, but never found: a man who could talk about what he likes, what he wants and tell her what she is making him feel. Yep. Women can't get enough because in IRL, they never get any. Men, take a page off that computer and start telling women what you want, what you need, how they feel to you and you will be astounded at the reaction. A cautionary note here, for goodness sakes don't make what you say to your women sound like Penthouse letters. Make it sound like Pablo Neruda. Make it sound like a romantic poet, all sibilant and lushly colored and women will swoon for you. Just be careful with your new-found power or you may experience the same things that Neal Pollack did...

Now I understand why the cliche "Don't mess with Texas" is really a profound statement.

Last column? Say it isn't so, Neil. You haven't even touched on the time you begged Maria to love you and she ridiculed you relentlessly until you ran into the snowy Wisconsin wilderness wearing nothing but your tighty whities. But I guess that doesn't count because no sex ever happened.
