... in response to God and sex, posted by chevy on Oct 25, 2002Vicky is a good daughter of the Church and I can truthfully report that the Church keeps its nose out of our bedroom, the buffaloskin rug in front of the fireplace, the sofa, the kitchen table, the hayloft in the barn and wherever else we happen to feel in the mood.
From what I gather, a Catholic woman's role is to please her husband, so long as it does not conflict with the teachings of the Church. Add to that the natural fear of husbandly wandering most Filipinas feel, and they figure that if they keep you worn out, you'll be less likely to stray. Why go out for hamburger when you have steak waiting at home? If you are in bed with them, you are not out with another woman.
As Vicky's mom says; "Love him like a fury at night and feed him first thing in the morning and he will not stray. Do not talk too much until he is well into his breakfast. Those are the secrets of keeping a man."
That is one reason Vickly hates for me to get my own breakfast. That, and the fact that she is sure I am breaking at least two of the Commandments with what I eat for breakfast when left to my own devices. She is sure I am going to poison myself some day by mixing foods that "...have no business being mixed together like flotsam in a flood".
But most Filipinas seem to actually enjoy relations with their husband on a frequent basis. Maybe it is the exotic Pacific Islander blood mixed with the Oriental blood and the Spanish influence of their history, or the feelings of jealousy and insecurity from seeing so many men misbehave in their homeland. Whatever the reason, I'M sure not complaining. ;-)
