Helen Mirren hasn’t had a man want to do that to her in a very long time, I’d bet...

My girlfriend and I in the 70’s did the same thing. Both of us had our hand in the others back pocket.

You know I never thought of that. Perhaps you’re right.

I wonder what ever happened to her? Or even if she’s still alive.

She wouldn’t be Helen Mirren if she weren’t saying or doing something crazy.

My husband died 2 1/2 years ago. I would give anything to have him put his arm around me again. I always felt protected, not owned.

No, Lesley Gore died from cancer in Feb of this year. Her real name was Lesley Sue Goldstein.

Then is it awful when my wife puts her arm around me? Around other women, she is certainly expressing ownership of a sort. Maybe its that guys usually put their arm over the lady’s shoulders. That is perhaps patriarchal. But guys are usually taller. So their arm fits naturally over the shoulder and the lady’s arm fits around the guys waist.

That’s how God made us.

As long as she agrees to let you remove the ball and chain from your leg, yes. The Bat knows all about that stuff.

When a woman holds a man’s arm is no different.

So the liberated Helen Mirren doesn’t believe women should be allowed to decide whether they like being held this way or not...

Dame Helen Mirren: 1969 called, it said that you can stop saying that you're a “Women's Libber”. The new word is feminist. Also, you don't have to smoke a certain type of cigarette.

You no longer have to say “WyeemoeeennnynnnnGGHHh” in that annoying grindcore/Golum/Cthulhu in a drainpipe way that the early 70’s feminists did. You know...the way Hilary still does.

Also, you may be surprised to learn that women get paid the same as men and there are many, many female supervisors, managers, and executives now!

So you can stop worrying about trivial things like how heterosexual people express their attraction and maybe go after islam that actually DOES to do bad things to women.

Maybe you could look into something important like stopping Obamacare or helping to shut down the nuts that are STILL pushing the Climate Change Scam.

Or I suppose you could remain sitting it the lotus position contemplating your navel in your feng shui designed room until you figure out some way that it's a man's fault that you have lint in your navel.

And my arm around my husband’s waist is...??

AFFECTION.

Deal with it.

If I were taller, my arm would be around his shoulders.

Sounds like plagerism to me:

From the “anything goes as long as it’s consensual” crowd. Now we’re getting their list of exceptions.
