What is it with 50 shades of Gay err Grey

[BadCat]

The book is being attributed with a marked increase in the sale of spreader bars.

Can't be all bad.

My wife has read all 3 books, twice. She described them to me as "porn for women". I asked her if it was now OK for me to watch porn. She didn't have an answer. For the record, porn does nothing for me much like going to strip clubs and willingly give money to women I won't have 1 iota of physical contact with makes no sense to me. Hey, I like looking at pretty girls as much as the next guy but c'mon, to stuff money in some chick's G-string simply because she can swing from a pole? C'mon man.

You get to be morally superior to your wife about porn! How often does that happen in marriages?!

That books like this exist is a sad testament to the lackluster performance of husbands. Step up, guys, and your wife won't feel the need to turn to trashy novels for fulfillment.

If you never read it or can't read about a 4th grade level -- how do you know it's 'trashy'?

I think you must mean read above a 4th grade level, why woulds you desire to read about a 4th grade level?

Ellen DeGeneres reads 50 Shades of Grey


Video at link.

Fans of E.L. James' steamy bestseller "Fifty Shades of Grey" got a treat on Thursday's "Ellen DeGeneres Show" as the host delivered her very own book-on-tape reading gone wrong.

What it lacked in passion, it made up for in laughs.

Watch the clip below for all the intentionally not-so-hot action, including awkward sound effects and valuable asides.

Men are visual, women are cerebral. You don't hear women having problems with porn much for that reason.

Women don't like porn because they don't like other people having fun.
