Adult men do know that, by the way. It's the immature and insecure boys who are threatened :-) Jill, you’re so right! Adult men do know that, by the way.

I'll watch for it. He was being purposely outrageous and inflammatory which is why I tried to ignore it. But I just couldn't let it go, so I tried to respond with some dignity. I refuse to allow him to dictate or define MY reading choices or the choices of our romance fans. Rocki, oh thanks for the heads up about Sarah at Smart Bitches responding. I’ll watch for it.

I just thought I'd pull out some of my college English skills and respond in a more professional manner. Plus his words speak loud and clear, so why state the obvious :-) Toni, I agree with you.

They see covers with buff men, hear about the scenes of sex for hours, and really worry they can't compete with a fictional character. Those men should know if you love us, do little things for us, and remain totally faithful we don't care how long you last in bed, or how buff you are after 20 or 30 years of marriage.

I couldn't blog about it, because I couldn't put coherent thoughts together due to blindness from seeing red. His gross sweeping generalizations just sent me over the edge. Everything about this article was offenisive and wrong, and I was deeply disappointed that Huffington Post ran with it. I understand Sarah at Smart Bitches has been offered the opportunity to respond, so stay tuned. Jen, thanks so much for taking this one on, and so eloquently.
