I was standing before one of the urinals at my gym when to my disbelief I heard in the partitioned stall behind me a man who sounded very much like the baritone Barry White engaging in an intimate cell phone conversation. Sitting with his pants coiled around his ankles in the miasma of a malodorous bathroom stall, he was telling his girlfriend how much he missed her and how he couldn’t wait to see her that evening. He promised her there would be scented candles, champagne, chocolate, hot-oil massage, and other unspeakable ecstasies. I was shocked to hear some dude using the crapper while purring lubricious intimacies into his girlfriend’s ear. But then I began to admire him as someone championing Man Points. First of all, it took some serious balls for him to call his girlfriend from the crapper, inside a health club of all places. Second, it could be argued that his devil-may-care attitude regarding what I or anyone else thought of his private conversation gave him Man Points. Third of all, his ability to multi-task—workout, crap, take care of girlfriend business—all in one trip to the health club was a sign of effective time management, which, some might argue, resulted in even more Man Points. Men, we have learned a valuable lesson from this silk-tongued gentleman: Make time for your lover no matter how adverse the conditions.
