| I am attempting to attach a photo as my avatar and came across a part of the profile where you can enter a Loisirs. What in blazes is that? I looked it up on the net and the only definition they give are a specific type of aircraft and "loincloth (loincloths plural )A loincloth is a piece of cloth sometimes worn by men in order to cover their sexual parts, especially in countries when it is too hot to wear anything else." Can some enlighten me please? I really don't have any loincloths to share with you all.   "Willie, were you or were you not looking at the corsett ads in the catalogue?" - Nels  | |

| I think loisirs is le francais for leisure activities, or hobbies. Coincidentally, most of my leisure activities are pursued in a loincloth. But that's just me.  | |

|  It's actually a french word for "Activities" Some of the team of the people that host this board are french. I'll see if I can change that to English  | |

WWBD is the TV channel that gave me the loincloth idea in the first place. You know, Tarzan reruns.  | |

| I'm never skipping over threads again. I didn't bother opening it earlier because I had no clue what loisirs was, so I figured I wouldn't be able to help anyway. But, curiosity got the best of me and this thread ended up having me rolling.  Washed all the days stress away. | |

| As far as I know, "losiris" in French means exactly "hobbies". Vanesa.  | |
