If you are a weirdo & read this blog with any regularity, I want to apologize for writing so late on Thursdays. I try to write earlier, but I spend Thursdays putting the show together, & I'm totally a last minute sort of guy. Most of the papers I wrote in college were written the night before. So if the show seems shabby - well, that's why.
Self Help Radio is a family show, so I would never talk about ridiculous sexual stuff on the air, but I do want to point out that shoulders are things that both men & women find attractive (this articles says women choose mates by shoulder size first), & like most everything in my life, I found that out in a weird way, with my best friend in high school exclaiming that a woman in another car (we were driving) that she had "amazing shoulders."
Listen, puberty was confusing for me, & what I mostly fixated on was the girls I thought were pretty, & I remember being in Home Economics class in eighth grade listening to guys comment about a particular girl's ass. An ass? You can be attracted to the thing people poop out of? All very confusing. Mostly, I remember, a girl's face & something about a her shape - the curve of her body - was what made my blood boil.
I wish I could've been more open about my perplexity, but I just filed it away: "my friend likes women's shoulders." & I paid more attention to shoulders after that.
What happened later on in life, of course, is that if I fell in love, I tended to appreciate pretty much all of the object of my affection. Including their shoulders.
None of this will be discussed tomorrow on Self Help Radio, but there'll be many other shoulder-related things discussed as well as lots of shoulder songs. That's from 7 to 9am on 88.1 fm in Lexington, & online everywhere at wrfl dot fm. & of course it'll end up on the the Self Help Radio website.
See you then!
