Agreed. But my opinion is that men are challenged in separating love and sex. A hot gal like this gives you some then turns off the source until she gets a ring. (Glowing like the metal in the edge of a knife).
not sure if she was the first to say it butI went to see Bett Midler once and she said “women give up sex to get love and men give up love to get sex”.
I guess we all end up in different places when it comes to this kind of thing. It is a measure of what we are looking for in terms of love stability and sex.
I've thought for some time that women have better PR than men in the eyes of the general public and society....and in some ways goes against reality, which for some time we choose to ignore.
I remember reading some time ago (and before the latest rise in home real estate) around the myth of the man supporting the family, how much the average household's percentage of monthly income going towards housing (rent or mortgage) had grown significantly.
At the same time, many men are and have been involved significantly in their kids lives. But just like it is difficult or close to impossible for professional women 'to have it all' (although some appear to do so for a short period of time), it is no less difficult for men. Much is about choice in both breadth and depth. I'm sure many on this board who have lived a while (those who were Penn State fans in the early/mid 80s)
and still have much of their mental faculties, have experienced or witnessed wise and not so wise execution of choice (no personal details necessary) and beyond the outliers that celebrities like these two are-even though they and the general public don't realize it (..."We can have...too"..not really), and that they the 'privileged outliers' struggle with having it all.
I think is was much better ("OK Boomer!!!!) when athletes made less, and many even had to have second jobs during or after the season. I remember living in central Ohio in the early 90s, and read the Pittsburgh Pirate 'great' Harvey Haddix (who held the major league record for innings of perfect ball pitched-into extra innings before the definition of a 'perfect game' was re-defined) had passed in a local hosptital. I mentioned it to my landlord who responded that 'Yea, he has a farm just down the road..and I went to school with his daughters'...Harvey came back to the area every year, worked the farm, and even coached
the baseball teams, but probably did not social media to insult his spouse.
I have enjoyed photography books-don't go there folks, and some of my favorites are those that match biographical anecdotes with the photos. One I have I enjoy is called 'Rich and Poor', the photographer took pictures of those on the extreme ends of income...generally those with/from old money and those in poverty....what I found is if you ignored the photo (and maybe the penmanship) both rich and poor suffered from the same anxieties...I took it to mean, you could have to little or too much money for your own mental health....after I read a Time article (10 years or so ago) that did a study of happiness vs income, and found the point of no significant growth in happiness was around $75K...pretty attainable but many in this country with a reasonable amount of opportunity (access to education, role models, etc-IMO certainly most that entered college). I'm sure other values are at play...but that's the point.
With the spirit of this post...and this couple, I'll share 2 of my favorite bad women jokes,
What food eliminates all sex drive in a woman?....wedding cake.
What is the definition of a woman?...a life support system for a p***y.
I would venture to guess much of the negative from above applies to the woman in this post, and quite possibly even the jokes.
