lol no, my dear, i apologize NOW for causing anyone here

unintentional pain generally...

and i am sure the term was in use before i used it; neverless as far

as i am concerned i used/coined it as stated to describe specific

situation without previous knowledge of it. surely there were mental

masturbators always and surely other people used the same words to

describe similar situations; but judging from the shocked reaction of

some 'politically correct' people on the lists it hasn't been used on

those lists before.

of course i do not apologaize for using this term.

but anyway, if you want to keep playing/speculating with yourself

about it - go ahead...
