Power of Words

Let's skip the small talk and get right to business.  I want you to picture the manliest guy that you could think of.  Got it?  Good!  Now I want you to picture them slowly walking towards you.  They give you that half smirk that says "I've got something good to say".  They open their mouth and out comes your worst fear.  He says that word!  What word you ask?  You know.. that word that makes you cringe and giggle at the same time.  We all have a word or words that we don't ever want to hear come out of a mans mouth.  The sound of those turn off words echoing from a man's vocal chords will instantly demolish any fantasy living in the minds of a woman.

I don't know what he-man came to your head, but when I think manly man, the first guy that comes to my mind is Gerard Butler.  Maybe it's the sexy scruff, hot attitude, and the rippling abs...  Either way, I want you to picture the sexy Gerard Butler saying the following things in his deep, rough voice.

You're welcome ladies!

"Would you like to go out some time?  We could relax at a local bar and sip a cocktail!"

Really Gerard?  A cocktail?!  No thanks...

"I got you exactly what you wanted for Christmas!  I bought those sexy new panties you asked for."

Did you really just use the word panties?  Never again...

"You're a bounty hunter too?!  What a co-inky dink!!"

Excuse me as I walk away slowly...

"Whats up?"  "Nothing, you?"  "Samzies!"

That one actually happened to me.  I saved his name as Samzies in my phone and never answered again.

"I just had the most fabulous piece of rib eye steak in my entire life!"

You just took a manly meal and turned it into a tea party.  Sigh...

"I'm starring in this new film, but the lead actress is such a diva."

Oh really?  A diva!  Do you even know the qualifications of such a title Mr. Butler?

"I just heard the funniest joke.  It made me giggle."

Men don't giggle.  Chuckle, maybe, but they definitely do not giggle.


"I think the cheese in the fridge is bad.  It made my tummy hurt."
I could see a he-man with a stomach, abs, or even a gut...but a tummy?  Nope...


"Can you take out the trash?  It's stinky!"
There's a reason why Hefty didn't hire you for their commercials, Gerard!

It's funny how as girls we could let guys completely treat us like crap.  A man could call us horrible names or just talk complete stupidity.   We'll tell them to screw off and then initiate the silent treatment, but we'll still secretly be attracted to them.  Spit out those silly turn off words and we'll not only give you the cold shoulder and tell you to go away, but we'll also be turned off for life.  I don't get us girls either.  Sigh...

What words turn you off?
