     I can understand that; it's happened to me.  It's 'very nice'.

     If he does anything she hasn't given consent for him to do, then what
happens next *should* be blamed on the man.  Whether or not your gonads are
poking you in the ribs makes absolutely *no* difference.

     That's why you have to assume that when she says 'no' she *means*
'no'.

      What problems?  Men have problems?  Are you sure you aren't just
projecting your own personal problems onto men in general?  If you had
any sensitivity at all, you'd understand that the problems women face
are many orders of magnitude larger than the one you mentioned.  (you
get a little horny sometimes,  awww, poor guy.  You think women don't 
have the same little problem sometimes?)
