Uncomfortable sex
Dan Carroll writes:
Ever had sex on shrooms?
No, never liked the idea. The mushrooms become all squishy, and there's enough squishiness going on already, with the sex an' all. It just ain't comfy. Much the same with sex on the television. The TV is too hard and has sharp edges, you roll off, etc.

Satisfactory experience?
robinrohan writes:
I have to have a good mind with a good body in order to have a thoroughly satisfactory experience.
Actually, I was talking about her experience, after she finds out you did this:
robinrohan writes:
Ignore her (or pretend to ignore her) as a sexual object. Treat her as though you are addressing her MIND only. {emphasis mine, P}
and then say this about it:
robinrohan writes:
The interest in her mind need not be a lie. {emphasis mine, P}
She might construe that as fucking with her mind.

Re: Relationships
robinrohan writes:
He must talk to her just as he would talk to one of his male friends whose mind he finds interesting.
Couldn't he, after a while, from one adult to another, just pop the question?
robinrohan writes:
Now let's assume that this excessively attractive female subject is also pretty fucking smart. After awhile--not immediately perhaps--she will begin to intuit what he's doing, and she, having had to put up with many a jackass in her day, will appreciate his self-restraint.
And if she finds him somewhat attractive (he need not be "excessively attractive"), she will eventually seduce him.
Four more questions:
1. What if she not so smart?
2. Why is it enough for him to be only "somewhat" attractive?
3. Why can't he seduce her?
4. Are all women the same?
You need not answer, Robin. I'm just being recalcitrant. Your story shows a gentlemanly disposition.

Re: Uncomfortable sex
robinrohan writes:
Am I missing something here? Why on earth would one want to have sex on a television?
I guess the definite article ('the') spoils the joke in English.
Suppose you are asked: "What do you think of sex on TV?" You could, stretching your imagination a bit, interpret this as "having sex on top of a TV", which, I think you'll agree, doesn't seem very comfortable. The joke works better in Dutch, because in Dutch the definite article isn't out of place. In Dutch, you can say: "What do you think of sex on the TV?", and it would have the same meaning as the English question above. And for the literal interpretation the same grammar is used in Dutch. In English, it's awkward.
Here endeth the lesson.

Hey, I live in The Netherlands, what do you expect? Sometimes we even throw in a radio! The things you can do with an antenna...
