By all means call a spade or spade, or an idiot an idiot, but the common assumption that a man is an idiot is just as foul as those "dumb" blonde jokes.
Why are the good guys, the good people invisible? We dwell too much on the negative, too much on the bad news, the villains and the shady characters.
I'm well aware of my foibles, failures, and shortcomings and over the years I've written here, I've both willingly and unintentionally revealed these aspects. However, I won't deny I cherrypick the stories I tell, focusing on my best angles. I won't dwell too much on the negative, even when it's my own. Not here at least.

By no means could I even fathom a world without women, however, guys may not be as hopeless as too often percieved.

Oh-oh!
I'm sure that's just the ads talking, and Queen V knows you're that rarity among men, walking tall, tough when he needs to be, and at the same time totally tuned in to her needs. I could go on, but I'm laughing too hard to type....

Ummmmmmmmmmmm, okay.
So, if we treat the idiots in our particular lives and in the lives of sisters and sister friends as the idiots that they are (oh so disappointingly often), we are castrating, but when we hold them up as the gods that they are meant to be, we are showing a few small signs of intelligence.
The fabulous fellows are very plentiful, very plentiful, just too low profile to get any attention in the ads and jokes and conversations of single or married America.
You are fabulous in your blog posts, but I'm wondering whether the Queen's blog entries might wander off that path of manly perfection painted by a certain wonderful and extremely talented and thoughtful writer. Buttering up here.

It's just an advertising ploy to get you to buy their products or services.
