Women are like elephants. They're enjoyable to look at, but I'm not sure I'd want to own one..

You poor, deluded man!
Something more?!
Something less, I would say.

Hey, there is nothing wrong with Lancer's idea on things. Men should treat women like they are special. I am sure that Lancer speaks from experience and that he knows that if he treats his wife with respect, she will return the favor.
You respect someone for what they are, not for some grotesquely distorted idealised image you have made in your mind of what they should be.

Even if there is significant discussion on sex prior to the marriage (though how frank can it be if its not yet experienced,
I don't know), certain things might be acceptable intellectually, but when the parties actually got down to business, post nuptials, there might be a psychological impediment (sounded good in theory). Or something that isn't contemplated pre-nuptial develops into a desire by a party. (you want me to do THAT?)Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Try to think back when you were younger. You may not have experienced sex, but I'm certain you come into it with certain expectations, even if they are wrong. [QUOTE]
My point was that if you haven't experienced any form of sexual pleasure beyond your own devices, you're not going to have a fully formed idea of what you want from a sexual partner. And I think sexual fulfillment is an important aspect of a successful marriage. See next passage.
Which happens in any relationship, not just with two folks who haven't had sex before. Yes there is going to be a psychological barrier, just like it was for all of you on your first time. I'm not sure why that's a bad thing. It might be awkward the first few times, but both of you will be awkward.

There is nothing wrong with respect. But abjectness or cravenness is another thing altogether. Often, "respect" gets used as a cover for the latter two.
