Before I read Calliope's post I thought hubby subscribed to Abby's site to get his jollies off when in fact he signed up 'cos secretly he wants to be a girl!! Yeah, right!! This is the sorta thing Roops would write when taking the piss, but you really mean it, don't you ?
The visual polemic in the work of ceramicist Grayson Perry,is amply illustrated on his website, www.graysonperry.co.uk
Do you feel he is liberated,imprisoned,or simply taking the piss,by his embracement of aspects of his younger,feminine persona.?

Jeeze I don't know. Do you??!! In any case, how the feck should I know??!! Read my details earlier on in the thread. Did I say I was a Pseudo- intellectual, a fawning and gullible admirer of contemporary arts ?? Nope. And why are transvestites crap dressers ?
Still, back to your question, lets see now, liberated, imprisoned or taking the piss, hmmmm you forgot to add self seeking publicist who wishes to enhance his self-constructed image.
Whatever the answer, I think to use a flawed pot as an example to support your fanciful hypothesis is clutching at straws somewhat.
The example was chosen because the potter has a clear grasp of the distinction between polemic,and "taking the piss".
It's axiomatic that all art forms are subjective,but challenging the viewer to examine their own views is always one legitimate function for art in general.
Anyone,artist or not,who can look inside themselves,deal with what's there,and find ways to keep moving forwards with freshness and vitality,gets my vote every time.We're all multiple personalities in one way or another,so if that process involves allowing a younger feminine persona to emerge,as I said originally,I do not deride it.
The thirties aren't so bad, think of yourself as being seasoned and experienced. That's what I keep tellin my wife, and thanks in part to the lovely girls on AW, I'm able to prove it!

Actually I had a very wonderful birthday. Skinny-dipping in the ocean is fantastic, having sex there is even more so. I heartily recommend it to anyone and everyone who lives where the ocean is warm enough to do so.
And for all you fellow Americans on the boards, I hope you had a great Independence Day!

Welcome, casgrain.
As to posting, you just did the most difficult one -- the first. If you want to quote a particular entry in a thread, just hit "quote" at the bottom right of the entry. If you want to just put in your idea, just hit "post reply" in the upper left of the page. I think you've pretty well got it since you added to this thread.
Also the folks here are very respectful of Newbies (and Oldies too). It is a good place to put in your .02 I am in this thread toward the beginning somewhere.

Thanks for the welcome, but mostly, for the hints. I might be late for answering, that's just because I'm not always logged in. It's sure is nice of you.
Been lurking around for too long... about time I move out of the dark woods...
Sex: Male

Occupation: Currently a webmaster for an accounting firm. Soon to change after next year.
Education: Studying Software Engineering at Curtin University since Jan 2000. Next year should be my final year, if I stop failing units!
Relationships: Nothing serious at the moment. Have some good friends of the female kind, though. At this moment in time, I don't really feel ready to seek a relationship, but that could change any time. Very timid when it comes to picking up girls... I'll get the hang of it soon enough! (doesn't bother me though)
Interests:
Computers: Software, hardware, networking, embedded systems, Linux. Starting to get a bit bored of it though right now, because of...

Movies & TV shows: Preferred form of entertainment. Favourite genres are sci-fi, comedy & action. Follows Brit comedy (Red Dwarf, Blackadder).

Past travels: New Zealand (many times); my mother's entire side of family live there.
That's me... now for the porn side of things...
Porn preferences: Ranging from simple nudity to erotica .Anything beyond that (average net porn) becomes a major turn-off... too fake for me.
Girl prefs: Likes the female form. Accepts anything that's real (big or small, in the right proportions). Has a thing for redheads (they do send me crazy!)
Fave porn sites: DOMAI, for the dirty old man in me! Oh, and what's that other one... uhm, er.. oh yeah... AW.com!
Fave AW models: Another vote for Jamie! Other memorable models that have won my heart over are (in alphabetical order) Alice, Allanah R, Bernadette, Cass, Danielle, Elizabeth, Gabrielle, Isabel, Joanne, Macy, Matilda, Nicola, Paula, Roberta, Tia, Verity, Vicky... and probably some more I'm yet to discover...
Oh, and one more thing...
Are you gonna shut up now? Yes

Reason: Ok, I've shut up now...
Being new on the forum, I thought I'd introduce myself. I don't know if there is already a topic for newcomers to introduce themself, didn't find it right away, so I thought to myself, let's start a new topic!
I live in the beautiful city of Antwerp, Belgium and since Kim and Lleyton split up, I thought I'd better take care of the good relations between Australia and Belgium. English is not my native language, which is quite handy. Whenever someone is offended here by things I say, I can always say I didn't mean it that way and blame it on my lack of knowledge of English vocabulary.
I'm single, since my ex found a new love last year. Had quite some trouble getting over it, but by now I think I managed.
What do I like? MUSIC! Unfortunately I have the musical skills of a diabled monkey, so I stick to listening and to weird movements I call dancing. Favourite artists: Bob Dylan (=God), Nick Cave, Tom Waits, PJ Harvey, dEUS (Belgian), Morrissey, the late Warren Zevon and so many more.
Oh yeah, and sometimes I like to see naked girls.
Enough for a first post. Anyone who wants to know more can ask, maybe I'll even answer.
greetz from chilly Belgium
(btw: I can't use smiley's in my post)

Welcome to the boards, DenDre. If you look here you will find out more about some of the other members.
I see you've already met Luxman.
As to smileys, why not? What happens if you try? or just type them in yourself?
Hit Quote in the lower right of any post to see it codes, smileys and all.
I see bigspud was a bit faster than me, but anyway: Welcome to AW and the boards.
So you're from Antwerpen, not very far away from me, it's normal we have the same crappy weather.
Me too I love music, but the only instrument I can play is the CD-player.
For the smilie problem, there's sometimes a compatibility issue that makes the clickable smilies unusable. You can always use the codes to generate them. If you want more info about that, just ask.

Hmm,... it could be a nice idea to create a new (sticky) thread where newcomers can introduce themselves if they want to.
We should have a thought at that.
Following the format initiated to begin this site:
Male
56 years old
Live in the United States - upstate New York, which is not at all the same as The Big Apple. Around here, they actually grow apples.
Spoken language - English; whatever Italian I haven't forgotten, which doesn't leave much
Freelance writer, part owner of a (non-erotic) web site
B.A. degree in journalism, studied law for a year
Happily married for about 14 years. Unfortunately, that was two different marriages that totaled 20 years. Also divorced twice. Three wonderful children as old or older than AW models
Hobbies outside of porn - Traveling, reading, following sports (don't really play any any more
Interesting things - I'm considered an expert in some areas of baseball. Not a sport popular in much of the world, but does seem to be making inroads in Australia. Anyone who wants to talk baseball, feel free to contact me.
Porn preferences - Variety. Almost any girl can be a turnon if she smiles, enjoys herself, has a good attitude and an open mind. Besides AW, I like the stories on Literotica and storiesonline.net. Also DarkSecret.com. I like interracial, would like to see more on AW.com, but I realize you can only work with what you have. Pregnancy -- see crushes below.
Current ecrushes include - Charlie, whose pics in the guest section caused me to break out my credit card. I'm very new here, so I'll also mention some whose videos I seem to have on my computer: Aimee, Julie S, Lisa M, Shannon, Vanessa. Of course, Jamie and Verity. I'm sure there will be plenty of others.
Traveled in 37 U.S. states, Canada, Mexico, Panama, Ireland, Netherlands, Gemany, Switzerland, Italy, Vatican.
I'm very impressed with my fellow wankers, and of course Mrs. Roops and Abby's staff. A very cosmopolitan, educated, interesting group. Thank you all for letting me join you.
...Current ecrushes include - Charlie, whose pics in the guest section caused me to break out my credit card.....
Welcome Howie
In addition to Charlie we have Alicia (also in deviations). Check her out. I too wish there were more, but as you said -- you have to work with what you have.

Reason: added the link to Alicia
and I notice my post has already been moved to the topic I was looking for and couldn't find (thanks for pointing out Bigspud) and Luxman great idea to make it sticky (I'm beginning to understand why they promoted you)
well some more info about me: apart from music and girls, I also love sports (used to play a little soccer, tabletennis and tennis myself, but had to quit because of injuries - to be honest I'm too old and completely worn out), but I still watch lots of (different) sports
the reason I joined Abby Winters a few months ago, is the natural beauty of "normal" girls, quite a relief from other sites, the excellent pics, the great video's, the daily updates, the backstage area, ... and I can imagine the DVD's must be superb too (thinking of ordering), and last week I took a look and the discussion boards .... way too much to read all ... but as time goes by I guess I'll settle in
my favourite girl really has to be Gabrielle ... she's .... (<- lost for words)
... and Daisy ... those 2 vids when she comes home and takes a shower ... can't think of a better reason to join ... and a lot of others, who's names I can't remember for the moment (old age or nerves? who can tell)
and the smileys, well I have to type them, and I only know the code to 3 of them , & , anyone who can help me out with the rest? clicking the smileys, or the other options like tags don't work with me, always get an error message 'object is empty'
+ when I tried to post this reply I got a warning that I used too much images (?), so I deleted a few
are there any limits to the use of smileys in a post?
ps Tank

well, some co-workers, who btw regard themselves as being extremely funny, gave me that nickname, and I must admit, from a certain angle there is some resemblance, a white male, just turned 43, wearing glasses ... I can understand people think we're related
There are two ways to enter smilies by clicking when you use the Advanced Reply box: one is using the little table at the right of the text area, and the other is a dropdown list in the menu above the text area. Do both not work? Which browser and OS are you using?
