Today, I was disgusted. I'm living in Texas and we're having some ice problems. I had to go out so I spent an hour and a half filling jugs of water to pour on my car to de-ice it. I'm plodding into the house, filling the jugs, going out into the cold, dumping it on my car. I'm putting towels on the ground so I don't slip. I'm trying to
dig the ice off my windshield, etc...... across the street are three men staring at me. They have successfully de-iced their two auto's and are just standing around. They are WATCHING me struggle and don't do a thing to offer any help. Now, I am a capable woman, don't get me wrong. But I am a person who has always offered help to anyone who I see struggling with something, regardless of their sex. It's not a damsel in distress thing, ok? I'm a capable, strong woman. But once in awhile I'd like someone like Leopold (from Kate and Leopold) to ride up on a horse and resue me. But why won't most men do this anymore?
