IT is said that a great way to bring out the lyrical abilities of your mate, is to deny him some loving for a while, then watch him conjure up a good way to ask for it. All women would have experienced it - you know, after that fight, how in the throes of arousal, he'll get incredibly poetic, whispering sweet nothings in your ear, all in an effort to get some'?

You know how sometimes, when he gets all poetic and dramatic, you just want to burst out laughing, because the lines are so pathetic, they're funny? Last week we asked you to tell us the funniest way your husband or boyfriend has ever asked you for sex. Here are your responses.

I remember one night I was sort of upset with my husband after we had a little argument. But I was really in a heated mood and didn't know how to make the first move. My back was turned towards him and he muttered, 'I would %@#^## a cow right now'. In an anxious voice, I replied 'Mooooo'. In seconds we were in the heat of action.

I remember this one, it was when that 'tear off mi garment' song was popular years ago. We were sitting in the living room and the song was playing on the radio. My husband called my name, winked at me, and asked, "so yuh nuh waan come tear off mi garment right now babes?"

On our first meeting, this guy I know asked, "So mi get yuh digits now, so when mi a go get the p----?" I said "excuse me?" And he said, quite dryly, "so when, later tonight?."

We were having one of those dry periods when I just wasn't interested. One night my boyfriend came home and I was wearing setters in my hair and I had on a granny nightie. He looked at me - and it was obvious that he had practised the line - and said, "baby you are the most beautiful woman in the world. I'd do anything for you tonight". It cracked me up, because in setters and that nightie, I looked worse than my grandmother. - Sally

Taming the shrew

It's many a woman's worst experience - the nightmare of a woman boss, the one who puts the 'W' in WITCH, the one who insists on endorsing that theory that women indeed thrive on tearing down each other. And while many women will have had the experience where they had to deal with such a boss, others have great stories about how they, subtly, put her in her place and tamed the shrew. Tell us, what's the worst experience you've had with a female boss? What did she do, and how did you put her in her place? Send your answers to allwomanjaobs@yahoo.com.
