Every morning I listen to the same station while getting ready. It is the only talking that I can stand on a radio. What I mean is that I typically will only listen to a station if there is a song playing. This one, however, I enjoy their morning commentary. This is usually because they ask their audience questions that pertain to most people. One particular morning they told a very interesting story and asked our opinions. Some one had writing in to them to ask their audience what they thought. The story was this. The husband had purchased a massage for v-day. When he bought the gift certificate it was from a 30 something female. He drove his wife to her massage and was going to pick her up since she would be so relaxed that she might not want to drive. When she got to her appointment it was a 20 something male that was about to give her massage. He did not want her to stay and wanted her to reschedule, which she refused to do. The question was how many women would have still received the massage and how many men would have been upset? Most of the people were in the same understanding. It is just like any other profession. Guys do not go to only male doctors and females do not go to only female gynecologists. One caller, however, stated something opposite. I attempted to give him the benefit of the doubt, that is, until he called back to defend his statement. His return call was saying that he was being taken out of context. In addition to this, he felt more men agreed with his statement and he only stated what women really want. They simply do not come out in fear of what others would say about them. What did he say? He said, and I quote, “I would not want my wife to get a massage from a man because she is my property and I don’t want other people touching my things”
