Please?

Thanks.

Sorry, I'm obsessed with balance and fairness, and if there's no similar test to talk about for men then it's not fair.

5. Yes, I was going to ask that too.
But then I realized if I let Loungers know I didn't know that I didn't know what the pencil test is, they'd start laughing at me like I was a hopelessly out of touch clueless geek-freak. Now that you've posted that question instead of me, no one has to know.

17. Here's the explanation of "pencil test":
The woman takes a pencil and places it under her breast. If the pencil falls out, she doesn't need to wear a bra.

And if it stays put, well....you know!

She DOES.

That's it.

:hi:

20. I don't think it has anything to do with bras, Peggy.
Edited on Thu Apr-23-09 07:34 PM by redqueen
Girls have to wear bras way before any pencil test crud.

On edit... hmm... many online definitions show the one you said. But that really doesn't make sense to me since as I said, traniing bras are made for girls, not developed young women.

Anyway... this gives some clues as to what I was talking about: http://www.brucelawson.co.uk/2007/the-pencil-test/

4. If it's not longer than a brand new #2 Ticonderoga, it's not big enough?




It should probably be a little thicker though, shouldn't it? :shrug:

12. Good God, woman, there's all kinds of things that I fail at. Do I really need another?
I'm going to go home and sulk now. Thanks for the downer.

14. Place a pea at the end of an erect penis.
If it rolls off, you suck.

16. Hold the pencil between a flaccid cahk and the bahls. Shorties can't do it. nt

18. Well, if a man fails the exact same kind of pencil test, then that is not a good thing either! nt

25. Well, if we're looking for a comparable shallow judgment, wouldn't it just
sports car and fat wallet? :shrug:

27. Why not the exact same test?
Place a pencil under his man-boobs and if the pencil stays, NO MORE BEER!
