The Rule

[Aqualis]

I found this in one of my files.

-----

In the world of romance, one single rule applies: Make the woman happy.

* Do something she likes & you get points.
* Do something she dislikes & points are subtracted.
* You don't get any points for doing something she expects!!
Sorry, that's the way the game is played...

You know tho....it doesn't work if you're gay...

[Gen. Volkov]

Yes it does, just replace her with him, she with he, and Tiffany with Robert.? As so.

In the world of gay romances, one single rule applies: Make the man happy.

* Do something he likes & you get points.
* Do something he dislikes & points are subtracted.
* You don't get any points for doing something he expects!!
