dear tim. please re read this paragraph. Where do i say or even imply rugby involves "sensual touching" in my latest message?

"Rugby has been described as male bonding and rugby involves alot of touch, and though it is not gentle or loving affectionate touch, it is touch nonetheless. Men feel shame in showing they care about each other in the same way women do. Therefore, beating the hell outta each other on a sports field is the only way in which affection can b conveyed."

I was writing about the importance of physical touch in communication and interaction with other people. As men are reluctant to use touch in the same way women do, sport allows them to overcome this barrier. Ok, so i overstate my case with the word "only" in the last sentence because there are other ways of bonding, but as far as touching goes, men usually do it wen they are at play, b it rugby or wrestling or whatever else there is.

please note, that i do not mean sexual affection either...i did go on to say:

"rugby brings men closer together and created unity etc in fraternal rather than a sexual sense."

i do admit i was talking bollox when i first wrote my theory, but i knew i was talking bollox, and thought that because my "theory" was so absolutely ridiculous, noone would actually regard it so seriously. IT WAS A JOKE! please dont hold it against me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am starting to regret making light hearted comments now and will refrain from doing so in the future. I did not mean to offend!

please b happy everybody.
