“She’s so pretty! So what is it about her that makes her so ugly? And what is up with her makeup??’ My husband isn’t usually one to comment on such things. In fact, unless you’re an after-hours clown on on your way to host a Mary Kay party, he probably won’t even notice if you’re …
So if men get their own yogurt (bro-gurt!) does that mean women can finally get girly beef jerky? Because I know I like my meat products dyed pink and stamped with a breast cancer logo!
