There's some finger technique with those crack climbing boys, don't underestimiate their potential.

Hahahahahahahah... really funny responses boys. Some have too much imagination, I don't even know
what some of you have described.... What about contributions from the ladies of climbing?

sorry we just don't go down to that level. (no pun intended of course)

But I have noticed that rock climbing has so many terms that to a person who doesn't know anything about it, it all sounds rather odd to put it nicely.....like some sort of b & d possibly. With a glossary like screws, routes, nuts, tie-ins and cracks I'm wondering what's really behind this obssession most climbers seem to have with the sport.

Well I have this theory… why guys are obsessed with climbing anyway. If you feel the clavicle (collarbone), it feels like a crimper, shoulders feel like slopers and if a guy puts his hands on a woman’s chest – well he’s likely to encounter jugs.
Trouble is that not all jugs are created equal. How many times have you been sandbagged into doing a climb which was supposed to have "jugs" – but you found yourself groping slopers?…
Hmmm… but if my theory is correct, do guys who climb hard have flat-chested partners?… and are those who climb über hard and can get up overhung routes with slopers…. gay? :)))))

I can hardly believe that! What's the need to refrain? Is it considered more ladylike, more feminine. I
don't believe that the men are the creatuve ones in be. You must have your own analogues to draw
from climbing, especially with fresh eyes from noob. Come up with something for that guy who laughed
at your climbing shoes... here I'll start yuou off.... those climbers who must always wear sticjy rubbery
soled shoes are the equivalent to ....
or those climbers who laugh at others choice of climbing shoe are/...

DaCrux, your theory is worth writting a thesis on!

Very clever. Took me a long time to work all that out especially the last bit - seeing I'm still learning the lingo. I'd imagine climbing with massive boobs would be difficult especially any cross-over moves. Most women climbers I've seen aren't that big but I reckon guys who climb hard probably don't even notice what size their partner's chest is because they're too busy admiring their own man boobs to notice. hahaha....ever heard of the manzier....designed and made by Cosmo Kramer???? You dude's will be needing one when you're old and saggy hey!!!! I'd say a lot of them would have bigger 'jugs' than their partner's. Quite personally I'd rather be groping jugs on a climb than on my man....otherwise would I be a lesbian?

Oh dear. *smiles* that might land me in hot water.
I don't think he was laughing at my shoes. Just trying to help by saying climbing was hard in them. It was just a funny way to start the story.

Better get back to the knitting.
Where's that knitting project I was working on a hundred years ago? I'm sure I only had the sleeve to do.

**rummages through the basket trying not to look up**

Here it is..........hey maybe you can finish it off for me PK.

.... sticky rubbery soled climbers. (or sticjy - is that the Russion version?)

>or those climbers who laugh at others choice of climbing shoe are/...
very nice!

Pretty tame hey. Can't say much really PK. If I wanted to engage in some kind of phone sex I'd call one of those telephone lines. I guess it's cybersex on an internet forum. The most you get out of me is that my friend and I just make silly comments about the harness being some kind of chastity belt. We just get such a laugh out of that!!! Yes...small things amuse small minds.

Nope, some peopel *perform* sex, others feel it. Some climbs climb well because they let go of their
inhabitions use strength when they need it and are always conscious of how their body *feels*. Good
sex is like good climbing. Or is it good climbing is like good sex?
Either way, you'll just know when you're *performing*

chastity belt. ... ew. That brings up images of frigid stiff climbers too embarressed to bridge when
required because it would mean they would have to spread their legs!

Maybe it's for the better that your jacuzzi experiment never took off Trish...

Bec's recently started climbing, and I've been having a ball taking her out. I've been revisiting some 3 star uber classics, like the Bard, most of the Watchtower face, Muldoon... It's mighty handy to have other friends nearby so we can nick off and do some scary stuff too.
I get a similar joy out of climbing with Bec that I did when I was teaching guitar. When someone's been frustrated and working on something for ages, it's priceless to see their face light up when it all clicks into place.

There's also the couple Rich mentioned in some other post - they were together for years, climbed at a mighty similar level, on the same trips to the same crags, with different climbing partners. I think it was probably really healthy for them, and avoided potentially nasty competion.

If I had a partner as attractive as you I would definately climb with them! There is also nothing quite being tied by your partner, so you can't go wrong!

A visiting pom followed me up Tannin one day (it was his first day at the mount after hearing about Araps for years back home)... and was so overjoyed at the climb he shouted "THIS IS BETTER THAN SEX!" to everybody at the organpipes & campground

Another climber cursing and struggling his way up nearby The Wraith muttered... "Shit man, you must be getting some really bad sex ...."
