[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 418448, member: 6705"] The biggest issue many Americans have with marriage? Starts with a fairy tale, which inevitably ends with: "...and they lived happily ever after." No one told us that Prince Charming had to carefully bandage and then rub Cinderella's sweaty, stinking feet, because there's no "break-in" to glass slippers, and no air flow, so she had awful blisters and bunions. No one ever mentioned that Snow White had to clean up after [I]seven bachelors[/I]. No wonder she was ready for her Prince! And I bet he got his rear end reamed if he so much as dropped a sock on the floor. Does anyone mention how vain Rapunzel was? I mean, c'mon, all that gorgeous hair? Her prince secretly wanted to chop it all off, forever. No one tells us that Belle and her Beast were great conversationalists, but he was an animal, after all, and their incompatible sex life was just the tip of the iceberg. They just "lived happily ever after". NO ONE REALLY DOES THAT. We're all looking for our knight in shining armor, to rescue the maiden in distress. But when he does? We expect him to keep on with that. But he's tired, he's been riding a horse all day, that armor weighs a ton, and to top it off, those helmets are impossible to eat through. So he's starving, too. And he walks in the door and it's like Rumpelstiltskin stole not his firstborn but his [I]wife[/I] and he has to guess what the lil snot wants before he can even try to relax. on the other hand - never forget that Cinderella became a master at mopping, and then Prince Charming walks in, in all that armor, tracking mud and grass in. Doesn't even notice that she took the time to clean the kitchen for him, just demands dinner... [/QUOTE]
