I love it when readers email me! In my funky brown inbox, y’all have asked me to write about testicles, online dating DOs and DON’T, the “shocker” (two in the pink … ), vegan sex, guys in thongs, how to know if you should trust a guy you’ve met online and a whole bunch of other stuff. I’ve randomly selected 5 emails. YOU lovely folks get to decide which one gets answered in tomorrow’s post:

EMAIL #1: I LOVE BALLS

From: XXXX
Subject: I Like Your Website
To: funkybrownchick@yahoo.com
Date: Sunday, August 3, 2008, 9:52 PM

Hi Twanna,

Something you wrote made me want to write to you. You have links to a couple of videos on testicular cancer self-exams and you wrote “I love balls.” I really liked this because it seems like whenever I hear a woman say anything about balls, nuts, testicles, or whatever one wants to call them, it’s a negative comment.

Balls don’t seem to play a real active role in the sex act, I know (it depends on how one does it, of course), they just sort of hang there or get swung around or back and forth, but without them, there would be no sex, and no sexual reproduction.

Please, please, please write more positive stuff about the testicles on your website.

Thanks,

XXXX

Hi!

I’m not sure you have the time to answer emails from your blog readers, but i decided to send one anyway :P

I’m XXXXXXX and I’ve been reading and commenting on you for a few months now. I’ve got a quick question for you: What do you really feel about meeting people through websites like nerve personals? Isn’t it weird?

I’ve just signed in to [an online dating site], and i immediately thought of you. You’re beautiful, smart and fun. Still, you’re willing to meet people online. I’m almost sure i would be mocked if anyone i know found out i put a profile on a meeting website. But i’m not ugly, i’m young, smart and fun, but i can’t seem to find any dates (let alone a boyfriend). So i’ve decided to act on it. But i wanted your advice as well.

kisses

Email #5: Let Me See Your Booty Go … That Thong, Thong, Thong, Thong, Thong!!

Hi Twanna,

I stumbled on to your site quite by accident. I find it very entertaining, informative and a bloody good read. Both myself and my partner [redacted] are fans and have added you to our favorites list.

I believe that there are plenty of women who get well turned on by the sight of a “cute thonged up” male bum, butt, buns or whatever you want to call them but wouldn’t admit to it. My [redacted] definitely adores me in mine and buys them for me.

I’ve attached a pic (with [redacted]’s permission) for you. It would be nice to hear back from you but understand that you might be to busy.

Thank you for reading this and we will check out your site regularly.

All the best, cheers.

There you have it folks! Now, what say you? Which should be tomorrow’s post? Would you rather hear about testicles or, perhaps, male thongs? BONUS: If I write about thongs, the dude gave me permisson to post the picture he attached to his email!!! Or, should I answer the two women and a bunch of others who’ve asked me to share my thoughts about online dating again? Or, would you rather hear my thoughts about interracial dating and the guy’s tips about picking up brown-skinned chicks. Ready. Set. Click the comments link and post your vote!!

“If you check yourself, say, once a week, you’ll get to know what your testicles feel like normally to you [...]” Oh, yes. I feel a Testicle Tuesday coming on. I don’t think we’ve yet discussed testicular cancer on the FBC just yet. I love balls. So, I thought it’d be a good idea to talk about keeping them safe. Why are so many public health videos so dry and boring? Two clips. The first is 100% informative and 0% funny. The second one is more lighthearted … and, dare I say, slightly goofy. Yum!
