Wow, posting like you know something about the people involved. And you aren't even from Houston. If you got facts, post them.

Over the years, I've been fortunate enough to be around those with the grace to teach and to coach and, of course, I've learned through experience. I'm willing to return that favor, even at the risk of extending courtesy to someone who might have a secondary purpose for posting (and I doubt that is the case here).
Even is this was an ad, so what? The whole board is an ad. Women come here to advertise their sexiness and men their prowess. It is little more than a primitive game.
Many on this board would like to pretend that feelings and relationships and common decency have no place, that this is a rough and tumble frontier for mavericks where survival of the fittest is the name of the game. Quite simply, that is horseshit. Courtesy matters in ANY gathering of two or more people. Let's give the O.P. the benefit of the doubt. If he sticks around and gets involved, then we've prevented ourselves from more of this public display of idiocy. If he doesn't, then there is enough documentation here for those who care to claim that they "told us so."
I think we can all do better than this. Let's give it a shot.
All the best,
