    I love great men. But it is NOT ok to snore.

    :flowerforyou: I agree awesome men are awesome.... but I really want to read Cris' return love letter, that would make my day too

    Hey now...she's married lol, and she wrote it for her HUSBAND =p.

    Not that I haven't been considering writing a post praising all of the incredible traits belonging to the women on MFP (and everywhere!)...but there's an inherent problem. When guys do things like that...they're attacked, and it's assumed it's fake and a ploy for attention (even we guys feel that way when we see it lol). And if I truly put out how I felt about a group of people who are SO important to me in general...and it got bashed as everything else on this board does...I'd flat go off (you have not seen this yet), and likely lose my account.

    So...I dunno, I guess we'll see lol.

    I meant a return love letter to all of us women... Though I worry that none of the traits would actually apply to me :(

    It worries me that you focus so much on the couple of people who are negative towards you... cause the vast majority of women I see commenting about you say wonderful things...Didn't you get voted hottest guy on MFP or something?? Even I said I would argue with you over beer (I might even let you buy it)... that's pretty much my highest regard :flowerforyou:

    4 pages in, and the resident trolls still haven't showed up. I'm impressed!

    Dare I post a pic of me with my 'mini me'? Doing my best to be a great dad.

    Amen brother...that's what being a man's about.

    Seriously.

    Huge Kuddo's to all of the great Dad's out there! Maybe someday I'll be able to join the club!

    This is an awesome thread! I was about ready to get my boxing gloves on with the title of this thread, what a nice surprise! I work in health care, the world of women and hear all the man bashing. It gets old, this thread was very refreshing. I don't think men (the good ones) get enough credit! Cheers to all of the good guys out there!

    I know man...it's like...wow, women really feel this way?

    It's so easy to forget...even though I know some still do.

    Exactly, I have that thought all of the time! Come work with me, they won't let you forget how much they hate men!

    I know...I'm getting ready to finish school to be a pharmacist (my ex is a tech), and I know precisely what you mean.
    I love great men. But it is NOT ok to snore.

    I'm sorry...and don't take this wrong, but if your husband is sleeping enough to snore...he's doing it wrong lol. You're very beautiful, and very sweet from all of the posts of yours I've read.

    Sweet, resilient, resourceful, strong, intelligent, generous, caring, beautiful...

    You don't think those apply to you??

    I do.

    And we'd just have to arm wrestle over who buys...you being married and all =p.

    *Oh, and hottest guy on MFP? That was probably JR (above with his kiddo) lol.

    ha, well I'll claim at least half of them :) I thought there'd be more about sammich making and slipper fetching... in which case I'd fail :laugh:

    Personally the #1 reason I think men suck is testosterone... seriously that stuff is awesome (and the one thing I do consider to be truly male)!

    Yes, we kinda got the market owned on testosterone.

    But trust me, estrogen is a hell of a lot more...umm....hmm.

    Lets just say if you guys had both...we'd be seriously screwed =p.

    Haha... I was happy to get a couple of votes, but I think it went to one of the bodybuilding dudes. It's okay though... I couldn't handle that kind of responsibility. I don't like the paparazzi... and I couldn't attend all of the publicity functions. :tongue:

    I had to wait 15 years for my little guy. Had him when I was 37. Well worth the wait!!!

    Congrats! What an accomplishment! I'm in my last year of NP school and it seems to be just as bad at school as it does work. In all the years I have been in health care (18 years) not much has changed. Sad but true!

    here is why according to me...

    -they smell good without needing to put anything on
    -their clothes are way more comfy and still look good
    -they can reach things on the top shelf without having to stand on a chair
    -they snore and its ok
    -they can touch themselves in public and its acceptable
    -they hold doors open
    -they will let you eat the cherry off their ice cream even if they want it

    need i go on???

    wait oh no this is why men are awesome... sorry for the error in my title....

    oh while i have your attention for a moment
    -fathers who give up sleep,
    - who miss work to go to appointments.
    -fathers who do everything they can to make their child life better then theirs.
    -fathers who sleep sitting up because that is the only way their little one can sleep cause of a cold or ear infection.
    -men who do the right thing when that second line comes up pink (and no that is not always solved with a ring on the finger)
    -fathers who never hit and do their best to not yell
    -dads who will spend hours working to come home and play for hours passing up beers and games for tea parties and catch
    -who do these things and so much more
    fathers and dads and men like you are awesome!!

    dead beat dads who flake and disappoint get way to much time spent on them... while real men who step up and never out are left out in the cold... i think it is time for this to change!!


    Where are you from...You seem lost or searching.

    Refreshing post. I would that all men followed even half of these characteristics... As for the rest of us, it certainly gives us something to aspire to.

    That's my husband exactly. He's cherished above all others and knows it.

    To all the Dads and husbands who this topic applies to, thank you for setting amazing examples of what it truly means to be a man.
