Poll: How much sex have you had in a canoe?

[jdeerfoot]

This thread made me realize that my wife and my EM White have a lot in common. They are both beautiful on the inside and have a nice round bottom.

You had better hope your wife doesn’t frequent this forum.

Thanks for the heads up, I just edited out "big" and replaced it with "nice"

I think we just crossed into the too much information category.....or the twilight zone, not sure which.

And now you have to edit this^ message, too.

"round", "big", "nice" — how about "callipygian"

Bet you've never seen that word on a canoe forum before. Or anywhere.

 

[lowangle al]

That's a great word Glenn, and I hope to commit it to memory, but it doesn't fit the canoe. I'm gonna try to use it in a home made Valentines Day card.

Love Boats: The Delightfully Sinful History of Canoes

Before the youth of America fooled around at drive-ins and necked on Lover’s Lane, they coupled in canoes. Boatloads of them. In the early 1900s, canoes...

They called it "canoedling."

The extreme bimodal distribution of the responses is ... interesting.

Clearly there are few Real Canadians on this forum.

Gosh, I have been avoiding this thread, for the whole "gentlemen don't tell" idea. I guess I'll follow in the footsteps of my good pal Bill, Bill Clinton that is, and say I've never had sex in a canoe.

 

[Boreal Birch]

I am full agreement with Memaquay, after all he is a real Canadian, in every way.

 

[Glenn MacGrady]

. . . Memaquay . . . is a real Canadian, in every way.

You mean he buys everything at Canadian Tire, hangs out most of the day at Tim Hortons, and mainly likes to ingest poutine covered with maple syrup and Canadian beer, while playing hockey naked in sub-freezing weather? No wonder he's had no time for the topic of this thread.

 

[Boreal Birch]

Much more than those piddling things! You forgot to mention “The Plaid Prancer” gigs, taking a bunch of school kids on canoe trips year after year required a lot more courage & commitment than anyone on this forum has demonstrated. Speaking of this forum, we are all richer from his posts over the years. I for one should never have signed up if it hadn’t been for his posts.
I doubt that his small town has a Tim Hortons. The poutine I’ve had was slathered in gravy, not syrup & beer. School District policy requires all students & faculty to wear helmets while playing hockey.
I too have wasted time that I don’t have a lot to spare in this life on this topic.

My canoe sex, or lack thereof, depending on perspective, falls under the Canoeing Regrets thread. Neither of which I feel inclined to describe.
Yet. All I can say is there's a haiku in there somewhere and I'll be darned if I can keep it rated G.

 

[Gamma1214]

I'm almost always solo... No sex; no regrets.

 

[Glenn MacGrady]

Just in case anyone interprets posts differently, I interpreted UCanoe's post about "real Canadians" as a joke about a silly stereotype, and I was jokingly mixing together a few more silly Canadian stereotypes in my post about our beloved Memaquay. While this entire thread is factually grounded in the history of courting canoes, anyone is free to consider the whole topic as silly and joke about it, as many have.

 

[lowangle al]

I don't see anything wrong about having a lighthearted conversation about a lighthearted topic.

BTW, would having sex on top of an overturned canoe, swinging your Tilley hat around over your head while yelling yaaahooo, count?

I never asked for any detail, but this was apparently one of my mother’s favourite songs.
