As a side note. Apparently a non-paying member cannot have a signature. But I would like to say that I am a paying member with a duplicate identity. However, call it paranoia or whatever, I cannot afford even one single post with my paying identity, as it includes personal information. I know it's not strictly by board rules, but I am not trying to circumvent the rules, and I wanted to be a contributor. Enough said, I hope.

Grasshopper,

Listen to one of the masters....and don't be afraid of HDR because of some whiney, wimpering chicken-littles, I've had many dreams come true there, you can too !!!

No offense taken. It is narrow, because the subject is narrow. Everyone wants many things in life, but it is necessary to generalize in order to discuss hive mentality.
Your 'civilization' view is far more narrow, IMHO. It doesn't explain modern western human civilization at all.
The most important thing to a man is sex. It is so important that we don't really understand it any better than males of other species. How would you answer a pure asexual creature asking you just why you have this craving for females? God? Chemistry? Any other equally unfathomable concept?
On the flip side, women have a burning desire to be loved and cuddled. It probably goes along with the mothering instinct, as I have seen many women cuddle their man until they have a Ch*ld to cuddle. Yes, they want money and bills paid and bling, but in all of those chick movies, the chicks end up 'in love' ... not selling themselves for bling. They wouldn't be 'chick movies' if the bitch just whored it out for cash.
Many women settle for bling, and convince themselves that they have love, but they are seldom happy.
Getting back to the topic of the thread, it seems to be consensus what a 'PRO' is ... but there seems much passionate discourse on what 'Non-Pro' means.
I believe the safest definition would be the obvious: A 'Non-Pro' is the opposite of a 'Pro'.

HEY! This corpse is a Thinkin' Corpse!

I hope no one reading my posts thinks that I take myself any more serious than I should. Flippancy is a virtue to me, but I do like a good philosophical debate on pointless topics.

I AM bored. I don't leave for 8 days. And that bitch better not clog my phucking toilet! There is some really serious shit in the world, and clogging the john in my room is right up there at the top!

oh come on ... do you really think I'm going to be hiding under tables? I don't speak Spanish at all. I'm going to the DR for the experience of the DR. *IF* I find a chica that meets my wants: linguistically, financially, and all other 'llys', then I'll haul her back to HLH and write about it in the morning. If not, then the MPs await.
I have no intention of returning to the States with money in my pocket ... and I ain't giving it to the beggars either.

I'll agree to disagree on this one, and believe I still have a much broader view of the subject. I have a multitude of different concepts of what constitutes the "normal" relationship between a man and woman (actually even that is narrow -- who says it has to be one each of the opposite sex? it could be "normal" to be more than two with various combinations of sexes).

I would also disagree that most men crave sex more than anything, but that can hardly be proven or disproven. My opinion is that most men crave value, power, status -- or whatever you want to call it, more than anything else. That is what defines civilization as we know it. Nobody every said "that guy defined history because he and his wife had a relationship based on love". Most of the cultures that exist today exist because of people who were not very nice at all.

I know you don't agree, and that's cool. We are a bit off topic here, so I'm dropping it at that.

Agreed, but they're willing to blow it all in an instant on a piece of ass, look at Bill Clinton, recently General Petraeus, Eliot Spitzer...

Of course if you were married to Hillary Clinton, you can't really be blamed...

TEHO applies here. Even though your somewhat idealistic opinion is contrary to both human nature AND history .

To quote Tony Montana:

As you said, we'll just have to agree to disagree.

Get to the bottom of most conflicts in history and you'll find a man craving a woman.

hey BBF ... we went off-topic, but a good discourse like that is exactly what the board needs. It isn't about agreeing, it's about sharing opinions.

'Power' IMHO is not an end unto itself. It's usually a vehicle to achieve what you want.

Read the stories about King Solomon and Samson, they blew it all for bitches.

That's why I love CR, plunk down $50 to $80, experience mind boggling ecstasy, swat her on the ass, give her a tip, take down her cell number, shoo her out of your room, take a nap....

Later on or next day, do it all over again with another one, you don't have to be powerful or rich or handsome or witty or suave or debonair, you don't have to be Sean Connery or Roger Moore 007, you can be Maxwell Smart (you old guys remember him ?) or Austin Powers and can shag Beyonce, Barbara Feldon or Ursula Andress any time you want !

I think a basic test to see if someone is a "non-pro" is to ask the simple question.. "I will pay you $100 for sex." If the answer is a no.. she is a non-pro.

Unless you're down in Jaco and she says No...I want $200 !!!

There's a great joke about Oscar Wilde asking a hottie if she'd sleep with him for a million pounds.
HOTTIE: of course, Mister Wilde.
WILDE: will you do it for one pound?
HOTTIE: (angry) Why Mister Wilde! What kind of woman do you think I am?
WILDE: We have already ascertained what kind of woman you are. Now we are merely haggling over price.

A classic.

I may have missed this HOWEVER my definition of a semi-pro here in C.R. is a chica who ONLY works 12 hours a day in the Del Rey
