Too Many Pillows? Can there be such a thing?

My latest topic up for debate is the very controversial "throw pillow" for a bed.

Useful or merely decorative? A thing of comfort or unnecessary expense?

This war has raged between men and women since the QuaternaryPeriod, when a female placed rose petals on the gound to soften the cave floor. YES, Roses were around then. Angiosperms...the rose was one of the most durable and adaptive plants!

So how did this technique work for the female? All she got was a grunt from her mate.
And not much has changed with our species since our inception and evolution
(if you believe Darwin)
Women attempt to make the cave not only livable, but comfortable, and are thanked with nothing, except maybe a grunt - "OH."

There is nothing more inviting (and at times sexy) to me, than a big bed full of pillows just begging to be dove into. It helps set the mood in the bedroom, if that means anything to you.

My husabnd does not like all the pillows. He hates having to take them on and off of the bed.
I like the variety. Some days I want a firm pillow, some days I want a smooshy pillow.
I made sure to cover many textures and levels of firmness to accomodate for our comfort
"mood swings".

Buttery, down filled satin pillows with hand embroidery. Cool feeling, striped Damask.
Over stuffed, king sized jaquered throws. It is the perfect environment for sleeping naked!(which we do by the way - not that anyone wanted to know that)

So whats the big problem for guys to have a few extra pillows...just in case?
I guarantee the pillows will get more use than that 209 piece screwdriver set you got for christmas. Any why couldn't they come up with one more screwdriver to make it an even 210?
Silly woman, there's only so many Phillips one can have-right?

We have a Calafornia King size bed - same area as a king but it's designed 4 in narrower and 4 in longer. Kevin is tall and has big feet that would otherwise hang over the bed. So that's a lot of space I have to work with filling up!
If you just have a comforter on the bed, it ends up looking like a big Post-It note pad.

Here's a photo of my pillows to give you an idea of what I'm talking about. To date, there are nine pillows that occupy our bed. And the only one I feel is "Froo Froo" is the very front one that has a fancy flap with a tassle, and I had to get something the cats enjoyed too!

So I'd like to know what other men (and women speaking for their men) think about this.

I mean - C'mon, it's not like I've got a bunch of stuffed teddy bears and pansy covered pink ruffles all over the place. We have a leather headboard for Pete's sake!!! Which by the way, is another GREAT safety feature that doubles as fashionable.

Having all those pillows also helps on those nights you're unexpectedly awoken with an inviting caress from your man. Pillows are great leverage when you're too tired to get those legs over your head! Admidt it ladies, you know you've thought of it before!

So before you pop another Advil and claim to have a headache, maybe look into purchasing a throw pillow or two. At the very least, you'll enjoy having that in between your legs - for better sleeping posture! Perverts.
