Trick Guy Chocolate

Guess the gender:

1. Chocolate? Yeah, it’s fine. But it’s just another flavor.
2. Mmmmmm…. oooohhhh… ohmygod….

What is it about chocolate and gender? I hardly know anyone who doesn’t like it, but a mouthful of rich, dark chocolate can create the kind of response in a woman most men wait a lifetime to cause.

Here’s a possible piece of the puzzle: A good friend of mine started life as a man but is now a woman (my song, Switcheroo is dedicated to her). She told me that her reaction to chocolate changed significantly when she began gender reassignment hormone therapy:

“Well, it used to be that chocolate was a very nice treat. It satisfied the sweet tooth. But now it’s considerably more. And the difference between kinds of chocolate have become significant.”

Could it be hormonal?

Most of us can only try to imagine life from the other side. I am happily and undeniably female, but I would jump at the chance to inhabit a man’s body for a few hours. And I’d lay odds most men would be curious to know what if feels like to be a woman (as long as they’re absolutely guaranteed to get their junk back at the end of the evening).

An actual body switch is not a viable option for most of us, but in the area of chocolate, I came across an interesting recipe - a kind of trick chocolate that would mimic for men the appeal of chocolate for women: Chocolate covered bacon.

It sounds vaguely repellent to me, though I’d try a bite out of curiosity. But I ran a test by my husband. At the words “chocolate covered bacon” his face went all soft and his eyes got this misty, far-away look. He murmured the words… chocolate… covered… bacon… yeaaaaahhhhh… Score!

What would be an equivalent reverse recipe? Something guys adore that leaves women scratching their heads wondering what the big deal is? Maybe I’m missing the real lesson here. Perhaps I should start a line of bacon clothing. This could have solved my underwear problem last week.

What do you think I could get for a bacon thong?
