Ask a man any question and invariably the answer could be, “A little head would be nice.”
Think about it.
“Hon, could you take out the garbage?” “Sure, but first a little head would be nice.” “Baby, my parents are coming on Sunday. You don’t mind, do you?” “Of course not, but before they come, a little head would be nice.”
You get my drift. If you are a regular reader you know that I have pointed out this phenomenon before. I challenge anyone to find a scenario when that universal answer would not work for the man in your life. It is one of those constants in the universe that we can always depend on. Sort of comforting, no?
Sadly, the comfort of knowing that the universe is aligned because of this given might be threatened. A USA Today article titled “Rise in some cancers linked to oral sex” sites a correlation between the increased popularity of oral sex over the past few decades and some head and neck cancers.
Head detrimental to the head? How cruel!
“It seems like a pretty good link that more sexual activity, particularly oral sex, is associated with increased HPV infection,” said Dr. Greg Hartig, professor of otolaryngology — head and neck surgery at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health in Madison. (hmmm, is this what my kids are studying at UW?)
I shared this link on facebook today after my guru of all things edgy, Jessica Gottlieb, posted the link. The comments section kept me entertained all afternoon. Here is what I got:
1. Some cancer is just worth it. (posted by a guy… what a surprise, but clever.)
2. Like to give head? It may give back more than you bargained for.
3. Just when I thought you had gone “soft” on us.
4. Suddenly, swallowing isn’t that big a deal. (oy, my parents read this blog!)
Since it’s been awhile, how about a poll to choose your favorite comment. Please weigh in. And of course there is a place for you to leave your own comment if you have a better one.
i could cry but i don't have time 
I’m going to die of throat cancer.
Which will delight my husband, because first I’m gonna blow him, and then I’m gonna be mute, and then I’ll leave him the hell alone.
omg, i cannot breathe from that comment. have you been thinking about that all day?
of course i know he loves and adores you to pieces and of course you are just joking.
and seriously, you will still be able to type… just saying.
Just like Ebert.
you never fail to make me piss myself laughing lol!!
HPpy to keep you laughing.
Which begs another question – do vegetarians swallow?
Funny. That is a big question, Orla. Any vegetarins out there want to answer this one.
If u scroll down the page, it seems that head/headless is a running theme. Something going on my friend? ;-0
