Joan Ganz Cooney Likes a 'Whiff of Danger'

Any man who interests me must be smart, have a sense of humor and make me laugh, radiate integrity and give off a little whiff of danger.

You’re wrong.

Cynthia: I know my #1 and #2 are correct.

Sorry, Frank.  I couldn’t resist.  :)

You’re right about #1.  You’re on the right track with #2 — the first half, anyway.  You’re dead wrong about #3 and #4.

Frank S — Wrong! Honesty - I can’t stand a man that lies. But I do love someone who is secure in his own beliefs and is interested in sharing mine also. Bring home a paycheck - I’ve always had more money than my husband. He keeps his own paycheck. It works for us. A big johnson — certainly not the be-all of a relationship as far as I’m concerned. I hold my head higher because the man I have in my life just let’s me be me. I respect his integrity, his comfort in his own zone - his respect for women. A wonderful sense of humor and a great dancer. And, the ability to cry. And, of course, a great butt. I certainly don’t want to trade anything I’ve got. And, from the sounds of the posts from the other ladies - doesn’t sound like they do either.

Tara J - it’s a good thing I don’t know where you are.  Cause if anything ever happens to my sweetie (and he’s close to perfect) - I’d come right after yours. 

It’s neat being married to your best friend, isn’t it?

Callie - you are so right!  But I’m a little worried about our friend Frank.  Maybe we whould order up some of that stuff that makes you"bigger and last longer" for him, and I could get Mammy Jo to take two big ol’ tubs out to the pasture!

Anyone with ideas like he has must have a mind like a Gruyere cheese!  If he ever goes to a mind reader, he ought to demand half-price.

Tara: Don’t worry about me. I can make a phonecall and have a woman over here cooking me dinner while wearing lingerie. My myspace page is filled with availabe women. Go lend your husband a few bucks.

Frank — Honey I always heard that men who “brag” the most about their prowess with women are usually the ones with a small noodle. And I’m not talking about your head. I’ll graciously ignore your second remark!

Tara: I have a woman coming over tonight, would you like to join in? Keep all of your wealth at home, nobody cares. I have this, I have that, I’ve been there, I’m going there. Me, me, me, gimme, gimme, gimme. Sound like you?

A relationship revolving around the belief of each others outlook and interests is headed for doom. I’m not wrong about honesty as I said that that is what women hate the most. I bet your husband feels wonderful that you’re the bread winner.

Of course women don’t want to lose their respected mates. Being alone would be devastating. It sounds as if you wear the pants in the family. I feel sorry for your husband. As long as he can get you in the sack, he’ll be happier than a pig in in slop.

Frank — I presume you were speaking to me. Your remark about a “relationship revolving around the belief of each others outlook and interests is headed for doom” might be the case in some relationships, however, I have been married to my stud man for over 35 years. So you must admit it does work for quite a few on this website. My husband knew when he married me that I came from a wealthy family . He became wealthy on his own by being a very smart man. So, therefore, it’s never been a problem. He knows I certainly didn’t marry him for his money. You don’t need to feel sorry for him honey, I operate the Plantation and he operates his own company. So, you might say we both wear our own pants. And, don’t you worry about his abilities in the sack, after all these years we have no complaints. Smiles all around. But, thank you for your interesting commentary.

Tara: You don’t have to explain your finances to me. Your husband married you for your money. Like you said, he knew you came from a wealthy family. You said he became wealthy on his own because he’s smart. You actually meant to say he became wealthy with the help of your money. It takes money to make money, and he’s got you sewed. I’m not worried about your ability in the sack. As long as you give, your husband wouldn’t care if you bankrupt the family. Understand something about men (it sounds rude), but we don’t care where or with who we unleash.

Mr. Somsel: #1 honesty is not the same as "cheating on her." Honesty can mean being an honest broker in all realms of life. Cheating, although dishonest if one is covering that up, is only one part of being that honest broker kind of guy.

#2 You are making an assumption that if a woman’s paycheck is higher than a man’s then there will be rumbles in the relationship. Not always the case, especially if the man is secure in his skin.

#3 What a "big Johnson" has to do with women holding their head up higher is beyond me unless you mean  that  that part of a man’s anatomy somehow raises a woman’s head while–––well, never mind, I refrain from imagining.

#4 The Big Johnson is once again on center stage and this time it has to do with money. We women, not being able to lasso men with large penises, will settle for lots of green backs and water front property?

Conclusion: Man with small mind and small penis puts down women because he has small mind and small penis. Not too difficult to figure out.
