Raunchiness - Nature or nurture

Scoop · Post by **Scoop** » 14 Feb 2006, 17:02

A member of POL and I were out socialising recently and were (obviously) chatted up by members of the opposite sex. One particular opposite member repeatedly talked about how raunchy my POL friend looked. Over and over again, he just could not stop going on about her and her raunchiness. What I would like to know is, are you born with raunchiness, or can it be manufactured / bought.

Are you sure it wasn't you the OM was talking about?

As for raunchiness? Personally, I don't think it can be manufactured. I discussed it with PoP and we agreed that although we both definitely have the R factor, it is completely natural.

Unfortunately, I am quite sure the OM meant my POL pal and not me, I tried many ways to get the OM to change the subject round to me and my possible raunchiness, but he was having none of it (although the OM didn't know quite how literally at the time

)

Having met both you and PoP in a similar sort of setting, I can vouch for your raunchiness.

Bob, there's a very good chance you've already done so. Sometimes her raunchiness is not so obvious, but now that I've had her raunchiness pointed out to me, I have to say that looking back, it has been there more often than not.

I think I might need a jeroboam or two before I stand a chance of competing.

And we aren't confusing 'raunchiness' with 'paunchiness'?

Absolutely not. Never. Whilst I may not always have been aware of the presence of her raunchiness, I would have noticed the paunchiness, had it been there. Her stomach is as flat as an ironing board. She has almost always been able to see her toes.

If that's the case, is she available to play football on the 19th?

Erm, you never mentioned a flat stomach was a requirement, won't she be the very odd one out?

You mean to say that the POL football team representing the entire POL community are not the best examples of male physique?

If you are all planning to wear your POL T-Shirts I won't know whether to call you POL Bellies or Pot Bellies.

How true.

I think it's definitely something you're born with and it's just your good fortune if you are. No good getting upset if you're not one of the lucky ones Scoop

Dada, that's cruel. Scoop only looks like that on weekdays. At the weekend she takes the rollers out........

Nora Batty's stockings were considered raunchy by some.

Yes, I do tend to wear quite a bit of purple Poppy, but the top layer is her own

Whilst I would like to say that my stockings are always at my ankles, I fear that by saying this, this may make me sound very raunchy, and since Epykat has more or less confirmed that my raunchiness is non-existent, I think this may confuse those who do not know me. For the avoidance of doubt, I keep my rollers in when my stockings are off, and vice versa.

...although she mainly went in for sponge rollers that you could sleep in. The question is why exactly did she wear rollers most of the time...and what was she building up to...a big night-in playing whist with her cronies perhaps? Even when the rollers came out she usually wore a headscarve (my granny I mean not Nora)

Do you remember those shopping trolleys - the ones with two wheels?

These days the handle extends and they are called executive luggage, but I just remember mine (which was stuffed to capacity with Herald & Posts on the weeks I delivered them to houses (as opposed to the local waste ground)) as the tartan and leather "classic" version.

Epykat · Post by **Epykat** » 22 Feb 2006, 22:44

I had one of those but I don't remember feeling very raunchy whilst pulling it down the road from Scotmid

I've decided that although nature has a big part to play, boots have a lot to do with it

Oops, got me varifocals on squinty-wise and honestly thought you'd typed 'boobs' not 'boots'!
