The Husband Store
________________________________________
A store that sells new husbands has opened in New York City , where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:

You may visit this store ONLY ONCE!
There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights.
The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor,
but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!

So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband.
On the first floor the sign on the door reads:

Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs

She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:

Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.

‘That’s nice,’ she thinks, ‘but I want more.’

So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:

Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.

‘Wow,’ she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.

She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:

Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.

‘Oh, mercy me!’ she exclaims, ‘I can hardly stand it!’

Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:

Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:

Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.

She hooked up with Wiener because the Clintons told her he was a rising Dem star. Soon to be living in Gracie Mansion.

End of story.

Good one.

How about this. A guy dies and goes to Heaven. He asks God why he made women so beautiful. God said so you would love them. Then the guy asked, why did you make them so dumb. God said so they would love you.

The “beautiful Huma” meme is like the “elegant Michelle Obama” meme - liberal wishful thinking transmitted by the compliant media as fact.

Women can smell testosterone from across the street...nearly as well as the can smell money.

Those are biological facts:)

Bingo

That would also explain why there was little objection (that we know of) from her family when she married Wiener.

Who takes marriage advice from the Clintons?

Men are superficial about looks.

Women are more complicated.

They are superficial about looks/money/power.

When I look at Ms. Adebin, who is several months pregnant and seems to be a private, brilliant, accomplished, and, yes, beautiful woman,

Where to start on this drivel? How can a person who claims to be defending "science" simply make statements about what "seems to be" without even mentioning the need for evidence?

Mrs. Weiner claims to be pregnant, or her publicist claims it on her behalf. If she gives birth late this year/early next year, we'll know she was pregnant. Otherwise ... Democrats lie, like Democrats breathe. Roxie Hart was "pregnant," too, when it was convenient.

For a "private" person, she's sure in the news a lot, although it's true we don't know exactly how a Saudi Moslem ended up Mrs. Weiner.

If she's brilliant, there should be test scores, college transcripts, or publications to prove it. Has anyone seen them? Her "accomplishment" is being chosen for the Clinton machine. There is much speculation on how and why this was "accomplished," but none of it is based on what most of us would consider real skills.

And finally, some people think she's beautiful. Even the occasional FReeper. I think she's very homely, but well-dressed.

These women are crazy.





From a man's perspective, Huma Abedin is a dog.

Women might see her as attractive simply because she is not obese/overweight like the 64.1 % of women in the USA.

I think it's simply ideology. She's connected to a prominent Democrat politician, and she's not Helen Thomas; therefore, she's "beautiful," just like Michelle Obama is a "fashion icon" for the same reason.

Either way, "beautiful" is an opinion, but for claims like "smart," "brilliant," "accomplished," or "pregant," evidence (for or against) is available and should be presented.

...how a smart, accomplished, beautiful woman like Huma Abedin...

Smart? No evidence.

Accomplished? She's had only one job in her life, and that is as a "body girl."

Beautiful? Purely subjective.

Well, at least they don’t talk about her “well-toned arms.”

Huma Abedin must look better in person. Her pictures to me don[’t show beautiful.

It seems to me that Arabian/middle eastern women do not age very well; with the exception of Lebanese women who can remain beautiful as they age.

Huma is not aging well, at all.
