The Signature Dish of our Times
Dog Poet Transmitting…….
May your noses always be cold and wet.
Cultural blog; Okay… let’s talk about culture. I watch people. It’s what I do, besides everything else (grin). I regularly go to public baths where there are saunas, steam, mineral hot soaks, pools and all kinds of cool things. I would have to say that I am at my happiest and most contented when I am there. I feel an almost timeless quality. Sometimes I imagine I am in an ancient culture. Sometimes I will read a book between sessions and I find I am always able to concentrate better there so, sometimes I will bring a notebook too. This is not about my appreciation of European Therme however. This is about my studying people.
I can always tell if someone is French or German because though the men might be aware of the women there and… some attractive women do attend, the Germans are very good at concealing their interest. The French are not. I know enough of the language to be able to tell what they are talking about and sometimes they are pretty graphic; real men of the world. I watch films from different cultures and they have their ways of dealing differently with the subject of sex. Right now I’m watching a really good French series, “Engrenages” or “Spiral” as it is titled in English. Sex is such a casual thing with them. It’s taken for granted that everyone and anyone engages whenever, regardless of things like marital or age restrictions. That’s not all of them but it is prevalent.
