First, thank you for entrusting me and everyone else with what I can only imagine is an incredibly sensitive and trying part of your history. I truly appreciate the courage and earnestness of that divulgence.

1) Fair enough. As I said before, that guy made a poor metaphor for an even poorer concept.

I get what you're saying and I appreciate the response. My apologies for the "notallmen" derailing. Back to the topic at hand.

Retrogirl, originally.

That's all true, but it's miles away from the topic we're discussing.

Fair enough. That guy, Herries, is flat wrong.

Why marry the dude in the first place, then? It's nonsense any way you look at it.

Maybe I would find this ad campaign offensive if I could get past the term "Starter Husband". Is this a thing? I mean, do people marry thinking "this guy's a slob right now, but once me and HGTV get to work on him, he'll be worth WAY more sex in the future."

It's so pleasant to be white that I'm pretty sure only white people use the word "pleasant" in their day-to-day lives.

You can tell if someone's a U.S. citizen just by looking at them!?!?
