In the big city you use Craigslist for everything from prostitution to prostitution furniture. People are strange and they post some crazy stuff. Luckily people send me that stuff.
Today I got an email from a person who clicked on the "volunteers" link hoping to see if there were charities looking for Marine Corp. Marathon runners. The first listing read:
sex addicts can talk about there problem - (vienna)
Besides the obvious use of the wrong "their" it seems innocent enough. Okay, not at all. If you click on the post it reads:
"for the weman who are addicted to sex we can talk about it"
So much for the formalities associated with an actual support group... This guy lets it be known that he'll talk to you about your problem - if you're a "weman."
I suppose he's just being nice and just wants to talk. He's got no hidden agenda at all. He's not a bar tender leading an AA meeting at all - just a guy looking to help some "weman" who are addicted to sex.
I'm laughing my ass off at this, but I'm sure you don't see it as being as funny as I do. I've always had this question about sex addict support groups in real life. What possible worse therapy format could someone come up with? Well, other than having heroin addicts meet in a poppy field. You've got ten horned up people who are like minded and they sit around talking about how horny they are... I just don't see how they don't all leave and go have sex with each other given their propensity to do such things with complete strangers who share their sex drive and willingness to take risks... boggles my mind. This ad is a caricature of what I imagine the whole thing is like.
Never mind, go back to work - I'm just weird.
