A man of the 21st century



We would like to say that we are firm believers in the evolution of Man. That is, we like the change we have seen amongst the males in our country since we were little (ha ha ha...since we were little...man we're funny). Anyway, from what we have seen from movies and all the old tv shows that we watch, it is apparent that the "man of the past" would rise early, work hard all day at some physically strenuous job, maybe pull a bullet out of his own arm, come home expecting his "damn" dinner to be ready, perhaps watch the news or read a paper, then give the wife some lovin' and hit the sack ready to start again the next day. Now if you'll take note, nowhere in this schedule was the phrase "plays with his children who love him dearly". We cannot stress enough how much we appreciate the modern man's involvement in the lives of his offspring...his future, shall we say.
So as this modern man has 'softened' in his role with his family, we think that it is completely natural for him to 'soften' a bit in other areas as well. We will not begrudge any man for a whimper or two after having some vigorous work done around the head and neck area (which are extremely sensitive areas, might we add). Now if this man were to be 'mildly' complaining two days after this so called "deep tissue massage", we say, "Kind sir, dry your tears and we will still love you". We understand that if you are not used to that kind of thing, that yes, there may be some discomfort associated with this type of treatment.
Keep your chin up, you fabulous Modern Man, you are exactly what this world needs :)

Editor's note: there have been no headaches at all since said massage was administered...and I was not bloody crying...

  1. Girls - your daddy truly is an awful sight (and smell) when those nasty headaches take hold, as you may have experienced. If the brutal massage causes a tear or two, let him think you didn't see it, so he will continue with the cure. Trust me - you can always keep what you witness for future blackmail fodder.

  2. Hmmm, this sounds like an awful attempt at trying to make oneself feel better. Hmmm, what do we call it...denial? Something like that. Anyway, glad to hear the headaches have diminished.
