My Mr. Right Doesn't Deserve Your Tee-shirt!

Posted on Wednesday, September 19, 2007 at 2:33

While we were at Wal-mart today, I saw a tee-shirt that said: "I haven't found Mr. Right, but I have found Mr. Cheap and Mr. Lazy." 

Statements like this really disgust me... why is our culture so bent on disrespecting men?  Imagine if a men's clothier started promoting attire that defamed women.  A man wearing a shirt or cap that stated, "I haven't found Miss Gorgeous, but I have found Miss Slob and Miss Overweight" would be viewed as a complete jerk!!  The femininst movement would hit the roof!!  Yet, somehow, girls have deceived themselves into thinking they're "cute" when they purposefully defame men.  Personally, I don't see anything smart or cute about it. 

The ironic side of this is that a lot of women- married and unmarried alike- complain that men do not treat them "right".  It's true that many young men today seem oblivious to the old-fashion code of chivalry.  If "gentlemenhood" appears to be a lost art, should we wonder why?  By the time a young man reaches puberty, he has been conditioned to disrespect himself, simply based on the apparant opinion of the females around him and the culture itself.

Television and Hollywood feed us the same lies.  Men are lazy.  Men are hormone-driven jerks who just have "one thing" on their minds.  Men have no feelings or emotions.  Men aren't worth the time of day.  If you think I'm exaggerating, try watching a citcom or comedy show... or even a cartoon, for that matter.  Males, who once starred in the "hero" role (think of Superman & The Lone Ranger) are now dumb, witless dopes who can't keep a job or a woman for two days straight.  It's absolutely disgusting the way our culture trashes men!    

It's no wonder many women feel mistreated by the men in their lives.  The poor treatment they receive from their man is probably nothing more or less than the effortless efforts of a male who doesn't believe he knows how to be a man. 

As a happily married wife and mother who has shared life with a godly, loving, and considerate man for the past 5 1/2 years, I have a bone to pick with the gals who would dare wear a tee-shirt that disgraces masculinity.  Maybe they haven't found Mr. Right.  Maybe the men in their lives are less than admirable.  But let's not lump the whole male race into a trash heap with a few losers.  I, for one, am  happily married... my Mr. Right doesn't deserve your tee-shirt!

It is truly heartbreaking.
The Women's Liberation Movement has ruined us. They have put us in such bondage.......and they 'claim' to set us free. HA

If women would love their husbands, as they love themselves, their husbands might 'work a little harder', 'lounge a little less', 'speak a little more softly' and 'love us with a deeper devotion'.
But if I was a man, and had a wife that has nothing but critisism and complaints for me?
I just might go "looking" for someone who appreciates me!!

I spent 4 years working in a place where I saw this attitude nightly. Men sick and tired of working their butts off only to come home to a sloppy house, ill behaved kids, a nagging wife.........who looks nothing like the women he married.......no dinner, no love, no appreciation. Only bitterness, complaints and disorder.
AND every one of them, who were in this place looking for "something better"........had this exact same complaint.

Wise up women.

Right on!
