No EarMuffs Please

There is nothing more sexy that a man who is...manly. A man who is not to metrosexual. A man who has a strong stature. A masculine demeanor. An appetite. An opinion. One whom has the ability to show insecurity in the safeguard of his favorite girl. One who occassionally just stuffs cash in his pockets. One whose body envelopes a womans. Hands that are soft but strong. The list could go on but my day is full, so this post will be brief. A man striking the balance between masculinity and sincerity so as not to seem feminine is a difficult balance. It is demonstrated by their choice of words, attitute, resilience, response to a strained situation, shoes, clothing, meal choices, etc.

This is a balance that that some men get, and others dont, or dont care to try. For those of you who do get it, or for those of you who are trying (is there anything more sexy than a guy who has an 'image' of who he wants to be but needs his womans help?) I have a small piece of advice.

Under no circumstances, none whatsoever, should a man ever wear earmuffs.

I realize that your mother bundled you up when it was cold, but any amount of masculinity can not offset that small wardrobe malfunction. Buy a scarf, a grey wool one, try a houndstooths print if you dare. But under no circumstances whatsoever, should you buy earmuffs. If you are in fact a runner, and you need to keep your ears warm, there are plenty of hood options with popular brand athletic wear. Just please...for the love of woman...do not wear earmuffs.

To the guy in the parking garage this morning who sported his long wool coat and slacks, leather casual shoes and earmuffs...dude really? Although I cant appreciate your choice of ear protection, I can appreciate you for your blog inspiration this morning.

Is it a coincidence the word "muff" is part of that noun?
