Lots of things in life are beautiful, but brother,
There is one particular thing that is nothin’ whatsoever
In any way, shape or form like any other.
There is nothin’ like a dame,
Nothin’ in the world,
There is nothin’ you can name
That is anything like a dame!
Nothin’ else is built the same,
Nothin’ in the world
As the soft and wavy frame
Like the silhouette of a dame!
There is absolutely nothin’ like the frame of a dame.
So suppose a dame ain’t right
Or completely free from flaws,
Or as faithful as a bird dog,
Or as kind as Santa Claus,
It’s a waste of time to worry
Over things that they have not,
Be thankful for the things they got!
There is nothin’ you can name
That is anythin’ like a dame!
There are no books like a dame,
And nothin’ looks like a dame.
There are no drinks like a dame,
And nothin’ thinks like a dame,
Nothin’ acts like a dame,
Or attracts like a dame.
There ain’t a thing that’s wrong with any man here
That can’t be cured by putting him near
A girly, womanly, female, feminine dame!
From South Pacific
I was thinking while I was out doing errands, Jim. Does anybody still use “Dame”? any more? I haven’t heard it in years, and I’m pretty sure I’ve never been called a “dame.”
I’d say you’re right, Elyse, “dame” is passé’. I picked this lyric, however, because to my mind it captures the essence of that essential difference between the sexes, and that includes the male instinct to be protective of the female. You dames are our equals in terms of intellectual capacity, including ambition, determination, and fortitude, but the feminine filter will, I submit, forever distinguish us and tint the product of your labors. Vive’ la difference!
I think it was a brilliant way to show up the folks in the media who are doing exactly what Jimmy was doing – Joe Scarborough at the top of the list. I’d love to see/have seen his face when he saw that clip for the first time. He would be pissed because he couldn’t not see himself. Same with so very many others —
Add to the physical comments — she’s look old, she put on weight, yada yada. Seriously? And which male candidate is a hottie? Better still what relevance does it have?
Heheheheh…I’m glad you shared this. It gave me my morning giggle. I think she was a good sport and it looked to me as if she was having a tough time not smiling.
I waited to reply to this until I was at my computer… Your comment made me recall a post I did a long time ago about a man who got swallowed up by a giant vagina. Here’s the picture. Enjoy! Now I must leave the picture for a few other folks!
Paul, because I love you, and because you taught me how to do this, I am going to add a picture of the most terrifying thing that could happen to any man — being stuck in a giant vagina:
Yeah, nightmares for a month – Ha! I was reading along in a blog this week and I came upon the term “vagina dentata”, which is apparently a common term these days. I had no clue what it meant and had to look it up – AHHHHH!
Paul, even though you’re Canadian, you can have an opinion. Just not a vote. Although if you’re Ted Cruz, you can run for office. So you’ve got that goin’ for you!
We try not to do evangelical politicians here. We offer the course but then send our students to the US for their professional development – and tell them to please not come back. We’re proud of their achievements. 😀
You missed the mark, Elyse. I think you don’t quite understand what mansplainin’ is. It’s sort of like, well maybe I should write the post on it. It’s hard to explain to a girl.
oh boy

I could get snarky and say that’s because she’s winning and it is sooooooooo un-femimine … but I’m not that snarky (or am I?)
