The right to be curmudgeonly and cantankerous advances with age, particularly when fashion is an issue. So Grandplank, I am with you entirely here. This seems a rather pointless and silly fashion - jeans with ready made holes in them or taking a pair of scissors to them - very silly indeed. I dare say I looked a right twit when younger, but that’s the point, the young exist to look like twits so us curmudgeons can gripe about them over our brandy and cigars. The precise point at passing over from being a twit to curmudgeon has yet to be identified by scientists. The evidence tends to support the bigger the twit sartorially in youth, the later curmudgeondom will appear. There is, from my readings of the National Geographic no hibernation or chrysalis period where a twit emerges blinking in the sunlight into being a curmudgeon. Anyway twits can be of both genders - the one that makes me snigger - are the ones that refuse to acknowledge the passing of age and time. Arrested curmudgeondom so to speak - cue aged men still wearing hair like Elvis, women with skirts like pelmets in their 60s, chaps walking about still believing they do adequate impersonations of Tom Sellick, Errol Flynn, or what not. In the meantime, in the land of silly haircuts, silliness reigns supreme. Something to harrumph and guffaw about on the quarter deck after mess, cigar my friend?
give me a lady who is a lady on the street and who's a wh*re in bed.. and she can do whatever she wants as far as I am concerned..
Well, I am far from being liberal but I would never want to try to control what a woman wears. You admit she is doing it for style thus any stated concern for looking poor isn’t valid. In the US those style of Jeans purchased at places like Abercrombie & Fitch etc. are actually fairly expensive. What is wrong with Filipinas trying to become white when American women try to become tanned? People should be allowed to dress to project their own image and I think this is really unfair. It is your relationship but you made it our business so I would suggest you love her for what she is “inside” and not interfere with her style outside. You really have no right to treat her this way; she is not your possession. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I'm not sure you know who you are talking about. ""You admit she"", That sounds to me like you are talking about me and Maria. I know for a fact that you know absolutely nothing about the relationship she and I have. I take you reply post to me as an insult and personal attack on me and MARIA. Just where do you get off suggesting that I miss treat Maria? Maria and I have known each for 35 years and husband and wife for 33 years. Dose that sound like we miss-treat one another? Maria has always been a LADY. She has always, dressed, talked, walked and presented herself as a LADY and I have never criticized her for being that LADY. You are absolutely completely ignorant about the relationship Maria and I have. WTF you think I'm miss treating her??? You are correct here, because I do not treat her as my possession in fact I try really hard to NOT to refer to her as "MY wife" because that sounds too much like I own her, which I do not. I suggest that you now go and take a long hard look in the mirror. I think you will be looking at an internet troll.
