Sexy Husband Crazy

More From Sheryl Sandberg

When looking for a life partner, my advice to women is date all of them: the bad boys, the cool boys, the commitment-phobic boys, the crazy boys. but do not marry them. the things that make the bad boys sexy do not make them good husbands. when it comes time to settle down, find someone who wants an equal partner. someone who thinks women should be smart, opinionated and ambitious. someone who values fairness and expects or, even better, wants to do his share in the home. these men exist and, trust me, over time, nothing is sexier.

Cool is spent. cool is empty. cool is ex post facto. when advertisers and pundits hoard a word, you know it's time to retire from it. to move on. i want to suggest, therefore, that we begin to avoid cool now. cool is a trick to get you to buy garments made by sweatshop laborers in third world countries. cool is the triumph of the will. cool enables you to step over bodies. cool enables you to look the other way. cool makes you functional, eager for routine distraction, passive, doped, stupid.

Hillary clinton said that white women did not vote for her because their husbands told them not to. you remember that? and we all said, "wait a minute. what happened to feminism? who are all of these docile women who are only doing what their husbands and boyfriends tell 'em to do?" but hillary said that. white women didn't vote for her because their husbands didn't like hillary and their husbands are telling them.

Usually you just use these words: "i give you my, i make this commitment to you, i honor this idea between us." for me, commitment boils down to honor. because you make a commitment to protect our environment, you make a commitment to species preservation, you make a commitment to stop things like human trafficking. you make a commitment to stop smoking, to eat better. typically, something that is positive. a positive notion of honor.

I find people sexy, and i find personalities fascinating and sexy and appealing and charming. so a sexy girl wrapped in a sheet is a sexy girl, and an un-sexy girl in a low-cut dress is still an un-sexy girl.

I'm not sure there can be loving without commitment, although commitment takes all kinds of forms, and there can be commitment for the moment as well as commitment for all time. the kind that is essential for loving marriages - and love affairs, as well - is a commitment to preserving the essential quality of your partner's soul, adding to them as a person rather than taking away.

Similar Quotes

Love is the strongest force the world possesses and yet it is the humblest imaginable.

For what is wedlock forced but a hell, an age of discord and continual strife? whereas the contrary bringeth bliss, and is a pattern of celestial peace.

All intimacies are based on differences.

Many a marriage hardly differs from prostitution, except being harder to escape from.
