We're living in a male dominated world. You've just described it to a "T". After re-reading my last reply to you, I was struck by my mistreatment of romance, as in novels.

I don't think guys in general are drawn toward romance but toward more what you described.

My wife has been away for three days on work related stuff and I'm going to meet her tomorrow, in Las Vegas. She likes reading romance novels and I've never read one. But I've seen Gone With The Wind and upon arrival in Vegas, this is going to be all about romance. I'm gonna show her the town. My bags are already packed and my minds made up. Twenty three years of marriage won't stand in the way of a beautiful weekend. Hell, nothing will.

Censorship or not, seeing things from a woman's perspective just once in this world dominated with sexual explicitness has given me a new outlook.. Thanks for helping me put on these glasses. Wish me luck. And frankly, I do give a damn.

In another time,guys got their ideas about how to be suave/treat women,from watching Cary Grant and Fred Astaire movies...now,unfortunately,boys pattern themselves on what they see on MTV.

I'm a woman who has NEVER read a romance novel/"bodice ripper".Some women do,some don't and I don't think that men need to read them.But men and women ARE different and I think you've just had the light bulb go off.Good for you.

Have a GREAT time in Vegas,it sounds as though you and your wife are going to.Absence does make the heart grow fonder,when true love exists...23 years and counting.:-)
