What it is about Firemen?

[Booldawg]

C'mon ladies. I was reading a thread from earlier today on B&S that basically ended up with someone saying they were a fireman (as they often like to mention it) this resulted in about 200 threads of flirting. I notice that a firefighters role doesnt even make it into the top 10 most dangerous occupations in the UK. Health & Safety is such an issue it prevents them from doing anything 'slightly' dangerous. It can't be the uniform, too similar to a lollipop lady, all that dayglo. What is the appeal?

Imagination ;)

[Booldawg]

oh no. This is going to be a 'woman thing' isnt it?

[Booldawg]

ok, I'm imagining the fire brigade has turned up at my house. Its well alight. Unfortunately they are powerless to act as they have heard that someone half a mile down the road has oxycetelyne cylinders in his garage. They set up a 200 metre cordon around my house and it burns to the ground. They all drive back to the fire station to eat bacon butties and watch a porn DVD. One of them farts in the cab of the fire engine. It stinks. They all laugh.

[horsestache1]

Yep :)

Firemen definitely appeal to me! I think it's the thought that they will risk life and limb to rescue you (never mind the fact that they don't, as you explained), and it's also that illusion of big, strong manly arms ready to scoop you up out of danger and protect you... that's quite enough, I'm in danger of drifting into a fantasy here!

[electricblue]

Oh yes a woman thing!Its whats under that uniform,and the fact that APART FROM NORFOLK who seem to have the oldest fireman in the world,They look so good and are more than capable of handling their BIG hoses,and every woman loves a big hose as long as they know what to do with it??

[black bunny]

Booldawg, you've ruined my fantasy now, oh poo.

[Booldawg]

I could argue the toss all night but think I'll just let the ladies 'have this one' xxx

[x jenni x]

I think they are hunky under all that heavy uniform!

[laurence2]

Its a sexual and power thing for the Ladies.

A mate of mine is a fireman, and he said it is like a licence to have near on any woman you want

[Booldawg]

how about soldiers? (no i'm not one) far more dangerous and far more dashing?

[Booldawg]

i was a retained firefighter for 2 years. I had to leave when I moved out the area and yes, some of the men are shameless in using the image when woman are present. I just found that side of it very crass. about 70% of the calls we went to, you never even got out of the fire engine.

[Katie~77]

Love Firemen. Even the not-so-good-looking ones. Soldiers just don't do it for me though, Booldawg.x

[laurence2]

Hi there mr Booldawg,
I was in a huge fire 12 yrs ago. I lost 2 people. The Fire Brigade, to me, are incredible, amazing, cool, fantastic :-) and they pulled me from death.

[electricblue]

OOOOh laurence,yes yes yes,PILOTS,with the helmet on and you can just see their eyes!!OMG,keep the firemen,PILOTS,PILOTS!!!!!!
NOT normal pilots def not,just the 'fighter type!

[tictactoe]

Helicopter pilots - always seem to be good looking!!

I have a fascination with copters, and would love to have learnt to fly one...

Maybe one day if I win the lottery...always promised myself It would be the first thing I bought...then I could have one of those handsome men to fly me!!

I've got to say Firemen do nothing for me.
I don't know what all the fuss is about.

[redcrx]

my boyfriend is a fireman (retained). i met him online and it wasnt until we had been in contact for about 2 months before he even mention being a fireman so he certainly didnt use it as a way to attract women.
There are guys at his station that do like to flirt with the women when in uniform at fetes etc but not all the time.
Oh and electricblue you are so right, Norfolk has son of the oldest firefightters ive seen lol

[stylinsam]

cos they are so god damn sexy ahem.............. sorry got carried away abit there! lol :oP
