Afternoon, Lysander!
Never disguised myself as a frog...but sometimes I do become a chameleon. I guess it has to do with the way I was raised:
It's all about the respect; respect others until they give you reason not to.
Try not to have pre-conceived notions of others, they do not always apply.
Females are not all the same, or are males. The diversity of the sexes is what makes up most of the excitement of love and lust.
I guess that is a starting point for those of us who aren't frogs. Maybe others can add more.
Holding until you get back, Captain.

Maybe I am a little late to this thread... but it's a subject that I couldn't help but comment on..
Do I beleive in Soulmates? YES!!!!!! I Do.. because I found mine...
And she shared something with me that she had come accross.. that I think would be fitting to share here...
There are 5 stages of love.
1. You fall in love
2. You realize that so much is wrong with what you had thought it was going to be.
3. You spend your time wondering whether to leave, or whether its too much of a hassle and you should just take it and stay. This is the stage where 90% of relationships either end or stay in for the rest of life.
4. You grab a person’s hand… And go through that journey against all odds TOGETHER… to become one.
5. Then you truely fall in love.
I think that is a pretty good description of how it works... UNTIL you find your soulmate. When you find them... you immediatly go to step 5.. and your love and need of them only continues to grow beyond anything you could have imagined. They will make you feel things... you didn't even dream possible... just because of who they are. They will be nothing like you imagined them in your dreams... because they will shatter your dreams and redefine every second of every day.. beyond anything you could have ever fathomed. Is it "perfect"? No... there will always still be misunderstandings... and obsticals.. and any number of other pitfalls.. but the difference is... you NEVER.. not even for a second... feel numbers 2 and 3.. Even in the deepest darkest times... you feel a comfort.. a joy... a happiness... a pleasure... unlike anything you could imagine... and it's never "work". Nothing about them.. or being with them.. is "work"... because they are your number one passion... above anything and everything... so much so... that you miss them to the point of tears... to the point of intense physical pain.... every second they are away.... every second... because every second they are away... you feel... alone and incomplete.
And that's putting it mildly...
Smaug..

Oooh! I love Chameleons! (I'm a Herpetologist in training) Wish there were more lizard men out there. I'm also rather fond of frogs! (But I get that they make for a useful metaphore!)

Welcome back, EmmaRigby! Missed seeing you here.
I am not by any stretch of the imagination knowledgeable about reptiles, but as far as chameleons go, they amaze me. I would love to have eyes that move in multiple directions, and the ability to blend into my surroundings...not to mention that tongue.
..but, I digress. 
Anyway...this thread seems a little slow today...you have anything to throw out here?
Holding until you get back, Captain.

On the subject of scents: I prefer nothing at all to too much. I've got a pretty sensitive nose, (compensation, I suppose for being nearly legally blind without contacts and not so good hearing :) so a little goes a long way.
Had one girlfriend, I don't recall what it was, but had a real subtle peppermint-y smell. Used to drive me crazy. I think it was just a scented soap. There was another used to wear patchuli on occasion, and it would drive me up a wall. Always was guaranteed to wake up that "inner caveman," make me just want to throw her over my shoulder... :P
Nothing at all is just great, too, though. (Though showering is always good :) Maybe it's the pheromones or something, but I've found the better our chemistry, the more I like my signicant other's natural smell. I don't generally even wear deodorant, to be honest. Never found a cologne that I could tolerate to smell on myself, either. (Probably OCD, I can't even wear jewelry or watches, either :) Did have one girlfriend who preferred me stinky, actually :P

You can take my hope when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers. (Or if Kaylee asks me nicely...)

...things that smell good in the night....
i like clean...the smell it makes... I'm no fan of loud perfume or cologne.... I've never used all of the Hi-Karate aunt Thelma gave me for christmas....
My wife has an old claw-foot bathtub outside and on days when the moon is full, she likes to fill it with water in the morning, then let the texas sun heat it up until later at night. When the moon shines bright, she slips into the warm water, which always has flower petals of some sort floating on top... the result being a wonderful, clean, floral aroma that smells great.
me ? i try not to stink.....
Now, getting off of the subject - whatever the subject may be... i have a question for the ladies about tatoos.... and the question is Why? ...why would you want one? To me the female form is damn-near perfect... and i mean all shapes and sizes... lovely to behold...and i see no need to cover or hide that which is so much nicer left bare and unadorned.....
ok, once again...just me...and i'm an idiot, so be kind....

Okay, since you ask, did you know that reptiles have two penises? True!
As far as human males go, I plan on checking that my next partner is a geek before I go out with him so that I know that we have things in common and he won't make me feel foolish for any odd utterances I happen to come out with.
In fact, I could set up a dating sevice on here (or has this been done before?
) How about it, any single male firefly fans that live in the UK? Actually, I might be brave enough to finally bite the bullet, admit openly that I'm bisexual and ask if there are any single fans of either sex who want to meet up? (Gosh, I'm repressed! It's scary even admitting that to virtual strangers!!)

just saw this from Nuclearday...and remembered a girl i once knew who loved horses....loved the smell of a wethered horse....after it had been running or working.... and believe me that can be stinky...but the smell really turned her on - made for some interesting cattle roundups....
to each, his, (or her), own...s'what i always say

EmmaRigby, I was not aware of that...that would be convenient, though...two penises...wow, world of possibilities could open up...
Alright, back to reality, sorry!
I think there was a dating post awhile back, but I have not seen it recently. I am married, and live in the US, but I am a Firefly fan, have been called a geek or nerd in the past, and bisexuals don't frighten me...but I am a flirt, and can be good for an ego-boost if you are interested in that kind of thing...if not, start a new thread for dating in the UK using the description you put up in here...I am sure you will get many responses! 
To respond to the whole "stinky" thing...there's a line between the whole unclean smell and the working smell. I am hoping you all are talking about the latter...I can't picture being turned on by B.O. Now, clean sweat (is there such a thing?) after a workout (read: sword-fighting 
) is a completely different thing. My wife also likes the smell of me after a day working in the yard...says it's a "manly" smell.
