What does The Man in your life want for Christmas?

Like you, I will be praying for a BJ-free Christmas for everyone, but most especially for our brave men currently hunkered down behind bullet-ridden mud walls.

At this point seriously? Probably a new wife and life and family far, far away from us. Screamed so loud at each other this morning I thought my eyes would bleed. We are beyond hope. Wow. I'm poster Debbie buzzkill.

Seriously, grow up. Please?

How do you figure? Is this rule in the bible? Do soldiers on active duty (or anyone else unable to be at home) not get Christmas gifts because you haven't sanctioned them? WTF? I call for a vote to impeach and remove you as Minister of Christmas Information and Imperatives.

I've never been a soldier on active duty, so this is just a thought exercise. I'm sure someone will correct me. But here goes... Here I am, hunkered down behind a bullet-ridden mud wall on December 24th. What I want MOST in the world is A) a blowjob or B) to be with my family around a Christmas tree, playing with toys, admiring a new fishing rod, and generally basking in the togetherness.

Why do some of you have to make everything about sex, and immaturity, and personal gratification? Why did you have to ruin the thread-- one that should have been about really thinking about how to make Christmas a happy day for everyone, husband included-- with juvenile jokes? I'm being serious. Some of us look forward to Christmas all year long, because it's a way to re-live happy memories, and make more memories for our kids. It's one day of the year when everyone bends over backwards (oops, wrong thing to say in this crowd) to make sure that everyone else has a great day. And that we do it together, as a family. As ridiculously schmaltzy as it sounds, I could be truly happy if every day of the year were just half as loving and considerate and fun as Christmas Day with my family. It makes me very sad that someone here tried to ruin that with a gross joke. And that she found so much support for her prurience. And that I find none.

If you don't like this thread why don't you start a new one. Try "What does the Eunuch in your life want for Christmas?"

ok, let's not fight. there are 2 sides to everything. It is understandable that some may view sex talk as dirty, and others view it as a healthy part of marriage. Neither viewpoint is wrong, just different.

OP's question was what does your man WANT? So the PP's response about the BJ is actually right on target—what man wouldn't? But if you disdain the sex talk, simply let it go, and add in your non-sexual gift idea. I agreed with the BJ PP, but stated I would be getting my man CLOTHES! So how about you?

My husband was in a mud ditch in Afghanistan last Christmas. I can assure he (and all his buddies) were thinking of a BJ. In fact, I bet they were discussing it.....a lot. Does that mean they don't love our 4 kids.....I think not.

Ok, ok. My husband is always thrilled with cashmere (or cashmere mix) socks.

my man may WANT a bj but instead he's going to get a sentimental singing and piano playing performance. it's cheap and romantic. and maybe the dirty will come after.

Well, since my husband and I have an agreement not to buy each other gifts for Christmas and he really doesn't like to unwrap gifts the suggestion discussed at length might be the perfect thing. It isn't something he normally gets which makes it special.

Now for his birthday that is a week later I am getting him a pot holder shaped like a lobster. No joke he is starting a pot holder collection and we forgot to by one on our last trip to Boston.

Great idea! Do you have a favorite place to get them?

Oh, and my DH really wants the James Bond gift set, which I think is very cool.
