The Guysexual is your average guy-next-door who loves beer and hates pigeons and talks about out-of-the-closet encounters of the third kind. He might not know the right spoon to eat crème brulee with or what colour shirt goes with a tan leather jacket, but he does know that there never really is only the One. There’s a Two, a Three and a Four, and probably more.
Ever the unreliable narrator, the Guysexual talks about his escapades in dating and otherwise – and shows that there really is no difference between gay and straight when it comes to love, sex and first dates (except, of course, the question of who picks up the cheque when you know you will never see each other again.)'
"Do you watch Downton Abbey?"
"You should watch it, it’s so quaint,"
"Maybe it wasn’t meant to be. It seemed like the most practical thing to do,"
"Would you like another helping?"
"I thought you would never ask,"
Words: Telling you wouldn't be so practical though, would it?
