"My people call it "juice.""
Annie has noticed that people's reactions to our living in the RV - especially this winter - are strongly gender-divided. Women say "Are you warm enough? Do you have enough insulation? Do you need to borrow a space heater?" Non-RV men roll their eyes so far back that their brains feel violated and slap them back up front. She asked one such man to explain why.
I think with guys, we strive for more, bigger and better, and in this we are encouraged, not just by the corporate overworld, but by our fellow disciples. I equate comfort with space for my STUFF. I equate wealth with comfort and the presence of STUFF. Every now and then I get sick of all that and I go on a rampage getting rid of STUFF. Then I come to my senses and go on about the business of getting more STUFF. A motorhome is just more STUFF. One does not live in his STUFF, you can live for it, just not in it.
I asked if I could quote him here; he said he was just channeling George Carlin anyway.
Have you experienced this? What about you men? How have your friends responded to this crazy RV situation? What's your take?
