I've got a big, big problem

V-Grrrl in Mike on the Bottom

by Mike on the Bottom

The following spam subhead in my work email inbox stopped me in my tracks this week:
MIKE, 67 PERCENT OF WOMEN DON'T LIKE YOU

It turns out that size DOES matter to more than two-thirds of women, and the company that sent this email can help me with my little problem for a low, low price. 

Hmmm. So THAT'S why women editors have a problem with me.

Wait. If 33 percent of women DO like me, I'm doing pretty well for myself.

Is the glass half empty or half full? Or should I say, 67 percent empty or 33 percent full?

When, oh when, will women stop thinking of men as sex objects and appreciate sensitivity?

Discuss

Mike on the Bottom, aka Michael Zitz Beckham, is a journalist, baseball fanatic, and FOVG (Friend of V-Grrrl). She likes him a lot about 67 percent of the time.  Anti-social.
