The Sacred & Divine Guiding Rule: 3 out of 4!

The 3 out of 4 rule is the sacred and divine guiding rule in our search for jewels. For the benefit of those who have not heard of this rule, the 4 Cs means Colour, Clarity, Cut and Carat-age (if there is such a word, but who cares!).

I’d like to think that finding a gem is just like looking for a man and like most things in life, nothing is perfect. You can win one but never win them all, at least most of the time. When a man has a handsome face, they are more often than not cursed with either a less than desirable figure (which can still be redeemed) a character flaw (meaning that they either have a weird fetish for stinky feet and/or arm pits or they get turned on by wearing women’s underwear) otherwise they beat up their women. To me this is the worst because there is little or no cure as they are often diehard addicts to their vices. I have even met some who have acquired all of the above bad points and managed to top it with an ugly face BUT these rare species are mostly of the time, loaded beyond belief!

If they are good-looking, gentlemanly, do not smoke, drink or do drugs, do not beat up women and are rich, then they are either gay, married, dead or all of the above. AND! If they are straight then one has to be VERY careful because they are very likely to be less than blessed in their department “down there”. A little tap? A Chinese teapot spout or a limp garden hose, a really short garden hose… This makes visits down there during sex less that desirable. Sometimes, us poor women have to even feign pleasure when we do not feel a thing, literally!

However, having said all of that, there are an extremely rare few who score a perfect 4 out of 4 but it will be easier to find unicorns! For most mere mortals, be it a man or a gem, 3 out of 4 will mean a good catch.

In the world of gems, a stone with a good colour, (different colours are coveted for different types of stones) good Clarity (meaning the thing is clean) a good Cut (refering to the symmetry of the stone. The proportion of the cut affects luster and intensity of the colour of the stone). Last but most importantly, the Carat-age! In other words, how huge your blinkers are! Out of these 4 Cs, 99.9% of Tai Tais will swear by their gems and their men that size is most important in giving pleasure! The larger they are, the more pleasure it gives... Hence, the sacred divine rule is – Be it a Gem or a Man, any that scores 3 out of 4, think hard about how to make it yours!

At the end of the day, we Tai Tais love our gems like we love our men! Big! Big! Big! How else did you think, Carat-age became the first and most important criteria, in gems I mean!
