On the Olympics: 2: Cashmere
This weekend, Monica and I chatted briefly about the Olympics. Naturally, swimming came up, and I brought up my other favorite water sport: diving. [The order of this conversation was cleaned up in the interest of reading comprehension]
Sfida: yeah. one thing i like about diving is that the men don't shave, and that makes me feel better
Sfida: i don't get how now suddenly men are supposed to look like boys
Monica: dude, what is it about you and body hair?? hehe
Sfida: girl, you've seen me without my shirt on
Monica: geico?
Sfida: ow, burn
Monica: :P
Sfida: i like my hairy chest.
Monica: for athletes it's not for the look
Sfida: says who? i understand why it's necessary for swimmers, but
Monica: well athletes who play contact sports or are prone to injury shave to prevent infection
Sfida: bah.
Monica: haha. remember that gap commercial way back in the day....
Monica: there was a guy, a man's man, if you will, with a really hairy chest...
Monica: and the ad was addressing the ladies, how if they wanted to stay warm this winter they ought to purchase, i think it was cashmere,
Monica: or find a real man.
Sfida: i love it. i am so using that line
Monica: ^_^v
Sfida: of course, i don't really think it would work on most women. i certainly doubt that it would sway you
Monica: hm, i'm afraid if a guy walked up to me, ripped open his shirt and said "here's a real man" i'd raise a skeptical eyebrow and walk away.
Monica: it's about tact. hehe.
Sfida: oh come on. could you imagine me doing that?
Sfida: i mean, maybe, but only if i was already married to her
Monica: oh, oh, oh... it'd be perfect if you were wearing your linen pants with a crips white shirt on, but open, and the wind blowing.... and you just standing there posing... then that guy who does the dos equis commercials with the real smooth deep voice, can say, ladies, here's a real man. *end scene*
