I WANT YOU TO MAKE ME CUM!
Now that I have your attention, let’s talk about sex. Yesterday, I saw one of those silly main chick versus side chick memes that suggested that main chicks are denying their mates mind blowing sex.

Would they come? The results were mostly yes. However, there are a few who said they wouldn’t bail anyone out, regardless of the circumstances. This truly amazed me and was a bit disheartening to say the least. Imagine this. YouRead More
