I think "Annie" should update her definition of "professional women". These days, that term means doctors, lawyers, professors, etc.

SEE NUMBER TWO!! IF a woman is paid for having sex, she is a professional. These days we STILL consult the dictionary.

Actually, the ladies who write this column don't really understand male behaviour very well when it comes to sexuality. Men are more visual when it comes to being stimulated, it's that simple. Maybe the guy going to the stripclub isn't getting enough at home, or maybe his wife is too straight and narrow, or maybe it's just for fun? Ever think about that ladies, fun? Get off your high horses. Just because your husbands and boyfriends enjoy lookng at porn or go to strip clubs do not mean they are deviant, addicted, or cheating. It means they are NORMAL with HEALTHY libidoes. I'd rather have that than someone who never wants to do anything in bed other than snore. But maybe that's because I'M Normal and healthy too....just a thought. Next time the guy goes to the strip club, maybe his wife should either a) join him and she'll see what really goes on in there, which is no contact, or b) go to a male strip bar with her girlfriends for a girls' night out. Lighten up people!

Re: Marie-Claude. Are you single, by any chance? :) If not, your husband is a lucky guy.

I'm with Marie-Claude, I'm not at all threatened, insulted, or offended by my boyfriend viewing porn or going to a strip club...of course, my current boyfriend just isn't into it...but if he was, I'd go to the ta-ta bar with him. However, the LW...Patrick, is a dumba$$ for accusing a woman for not taking care of bidness at home and that is why her guy is at the strip club...me-thinks Patrick is probably not man enough to get a response from his lady (if he has one) and stimulate her enough to keep her interested and THAT is why HE needs to go...idiot.
