...she was avidly remembering how much she loved climbing big hard things, and being on top, even when it's a sweaty struggle to get there!

Auditions for the Climbing Harem are officially open.

I went to Joshua Tree this past week, and I found this climbing chick who I haven't seen in a bit. It had been a while since she had been out there, and although the trip had it's own challenges, mentally and physically, she was avidly remembering how much she loved climbing big hard things, and being on top, even when it's a sweaty struggle to get there!

And every time she would entertain fantasies that maybe, just maybe she actually could climb, her partner would say juuuuuust the right thing to make her feel stupid, awkward, clumsy, inadequate, weak, cowardly, and an all around general failure. And when she told her partner as much, it still didn't stop. Brought to a new level of frustration, she was tempted to cut the trip days short and just head home. Then she stopped to think, if her climbing partner makes her want to STOP climbing, maybe it was time to give each other a little space. He's a good guy, and they had many good times in the past, but as with so many things, it's all about the good fit!

So....

Auditions for the Climbing Harem are officially open.

i can see where this thread is heading.......

I dunno. All this talk about small racks has me titillated.

Really, anymore than a handful is just a waste.

Man, you guys are sooo dirtee!!

I'm talking about climbing, don't know what you're talking about!

HA!

Just looking for someone to work through the lovely tight spots with me. And we can't forget feeling out that exposure!

The question is, are you a good fit?



cheers

I would think that depends on the hands. What is one handful for one, might be half a handful for another! More isn't always better, but I can definitely imagine situations where TWO handfuls better than one. mmmmmm.

In the future, any time you may be tempted to move a thread, do us all a favor and just DON'T.

Actually, I've seen CS's rack in person, and it's actually much bigger than you'd expect.

Sounds like you were weaned prematurely.

Maybe a call to Mom is in order?

Hi, I work a thankless job on a volunteer basis for a for-profit corporation.

yeah, I wouldn't listen to me either.

In all seriousness, what is up with some people, cutting others down with disparaging remarks?
LS, Climb On!

Ladyscarlett, to add to my already monstrous rack, I have recently purchased a very large battery operated unit. It has hammer mode, vibration control for those long days, and a quick recharge. Of course I prefer to go more natural most of the time but I am a very adaptable climber.

Did I mention that I live on a subtropical island?

My pants get wet just thinking about me.

Fair warning, I'm still getting used to the big pieces. I've discovered that even a mere #4 is two very full hands for me, so as long as you don't mind...


hee hee

Not acceptable. Let me tell you, in the heat of it, you may not have two hands to spare. If you're really that small, you may need to get used to using one hand and your mouth.

GO

This is the new "sex and climbing" thread; or "singles" thread, or whatever that one was where I met my wife.

and we met before that, in the (picking up the) ladies room.

there's a cute story for the grandkids

but had you ever actually met in person before the road trip?

naw, we'll just the the grandkids that Old Man Curt hooked us up.

Wow, I go off to live in the non interwebz world and come back with my thread moved, and left to wither...

Too bad I'm back!

I have no problem being relocated to Campground, I've seen the fun to be had! In regards to any sexual innuendo, well...um...I have no idea what you are talking about! I'm innocent, truly!

Regarding handfuls, I was talking jugs - two DOES feel better than one jug...I mean, knobs. Wait, Nuts? A set of nuts is definitely two handfuls for my little hands.

Man, I give up! Climbing just makes it so fun. I'll just put down the words, and you can all let your dirtee minds just imagine what I could possibly be talking about. Just remember, not my words, your brains...brains can be so fun!

Thanks for the support. I suppose I've become frustrated as he's been a great partner in the past. I believe he's feeling frustrated that I'm not the same climber as he was when he was at my level, mentally and physcially, and is choosing to express his frustration by constantly highlighting that I'm just never going to be a good climber. Not sure how this works. When I first got this vibe, I suggested him that it was time for him to find another partner, more to his speed, but apparently he's quite happy with the situation. But I'm not!

Soooo, thank you for your interest. And I will be sure to keep note of local and non local applicants. Afterall, I see nothing wrong with having a geographically diverse Harem. Actually that kind of sounds ideal! Should have thought of it in the first place.

Who knew that climbing partnerships can be as fraught with drama as any sexual/romantic/etc relationship?!

Guess I'm still learning...oh YEAH!

Still up for showing this n00b how to feel up a good crack in JUST the right way?

cheers

good lord, just stop trying...please

LS, good for you. Or your friend, whichever, it doesn't matter. If the innuendo was accidental or your sense of humor, consider this. I climb sleep with people that climb screw well, and has nothing to do with friendship. That comes later, if everyone is quality that is. It doesn't matter what sex, or even age, but more on ability, commitment, and of course a compatible schedule helps.

naw, we'll just [tell] the grandkids that Old Man Curt hooked us up.

IF ONLY i had a seed whith which to franchise you.
