Try something different then
[Read the article: Are men spoiled rotten?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Who really wants a man who thinks having kids after 50 is a good idea? Who wants teenagers around when you're in your mid sixties? Ack!!!! 'Thinking' should consider herself lucky these wackjobs moved on. She needs to broaden her horizons and ask questions as well. I personally have only dated younger men for over a decade (I'm 45)) because I enjoy the energy and attitudes they often bring with them. At 45 I make it clear I don't want anymore children (you need to make it clear in case they think you might be open to it later with science intervention...egads). In the meantime I just have fun (which by the way is more likely what these men were seeking and then they got children too). I lucked out with a vasectomied (before I came along) and near perfect man, 12 years my junior. Enjoy life and if something or someone comes along then cool for you and if not well, at least you were still enjoying life.

Quanity over quality?
[Read the article: The artful seducer]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Discerning women can smell b.s a mile away, but then again maybe Mr. Markovik really believes his own spiel....throw enough sh*t against the wall and some of it is bound to stick. If the peacock has to make that much noise to get ahead it is obviously compensating for shortcomings. This is something intelligent women KNOW intrinsically. Indeed this game is to score with just any woman regardless, charming. I have no qualms with anyone learning a few enhanced social skills (heck it comes in handy for so many situations)yet there is something inherently creepy about men wanting to learn, know matter what Mystery insists (and goodness doesn't he get pissy when pushed against the wall with a nugget of truth...not attractive at all) how to be 'players'. Heres an idea gents yearning to understand women and hopefully get closer and find..???. Listen to US. Intelligence is sexy, a sense of humor will get you very far, being genuine is charming, being involved in life is a turn on, personal hygiene and style do go a long way but no need to 'peacock' unless you're seeking women who don't mind you getting more attention then them, which is rare. Being a gentleman is not a bad idea either and yes so is is being a lady. Unless these men are simply on a quest to fill the most holes (sorry for the reali-crudeness of that)and well frankly thats just predictable, sad and makes the good guys out there have an even harder time of it. This all makes me love my drop dead gorgeous absolute nerd dork boyfriend even more. Real, what a concept.

??
[Read the article: Cheerful boos for Hillary]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]'a John Belushi impersonator and a chocolate fondue waterfall at the top of the Stratosphere casino'????. Is that blogger code for strippers and cocaine or does a John Belushi impersonator and a chocolate fondue waterfall at the top of the Stratosphere casino really influence that much? Perplexing...amusing yet perplexing. Good to see the effect the l.b has on these candidates, its gives them a kick in the arse Ive been waiting to see.

testosterone is the culprit
[Read the article: How can I comfort my boyfriend about losing his hair?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Hair loss is due to excess testosterone and stress can elevate the production of testosterone as well as adrenaline. Basically your adrenals go nuts dealing with the stress. As a hair dresser for 25 years I have learned to help men minimize the issues of hair loss by first getting a haircut that doesn't exaggerate the problem (like leaving too much on the sides or back...kind of an accidental mullet :) ) and trying to make them understand that it is NOT a bad thing these days top be bald or going bald. Many successful, sexy men in the media are bald or balding. Most intelligent women, um people actually, understand that balding isn't a choice and therefore not indicative of a persons character or worth. In short, bald is sexy...if you make it so.

Oh I thought it was all part of the "Who wants to be the biggest public f*@#k up" show
[Read the article: Hit her, baby, one more time]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]and this week Britney is the winner. Ah, now Amy Winehouse has to try harder (or is it less hard?). Wouldn't it be wonderful if we found the health and sanity of these people as entertaining as their spiral into hell and surely a possible early death? As Mike Gravel stated "Americans are getting fatter and dumber" and with that in mind it makes sense that Miss Spears is the poster child for this mess we are in(although I would never call that bod of hers 'fat'...sheeeeesh. All the men I know keep telling me they think she looks sexy this way....not sure if her method of achieving it is too healthy however) All I know is that if this were my daughter I would have made damned sure she got the help she so desperately needed a long time ago and I would have never let this kind of circus go on at her expense. Is there really a big pay off for this kind of absurdity? If we ignore this kind of behavior instead of rewarding it with attention perhaps we can start to set the bar a little higher for ourselves and our youth.

Im in love with Mr_Humidty
[Read the article: Honey, I shrunk my breasts!]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I mean...WTF??? Oddly find myself now madly in love with Kristen Wiig as well. Gurely I, ok, II. 45 and fine with it....shining so hard from within at this late stage but late is better than never, indeed. This beauty rare in so many ways led by the best part...I agree. Gravity though, is still a bitch. Mr_Humidity, your truth is brilliant and please spread it around to all the boys.
