I recently read an article in defense of lazy men. It of course was written by a lazy man. How lazy can he be if he wrote it, but I am almost certain it took him less time than it's taking me to write this blog.
The purpose of Matt Koff's article was to defend the slacker male. He said, we as women should stick around for men without paychecks and/or jobs because even if they're not working it doesn't mean he doesnt have ambition. He said and I quote "a guy who seems to be screwing around on his iPhone may be brainstorming killer apps of his own." I'm sorry, WHAT! When I see a grown ass man in t-shirts and flip flops playing on his iPhone at Starbucks on a Tuesday afternoon I don't think to myself "oh he must be inventing a new app, good for that working man!" I, along with other women think, he's single and needs a job or he's a husband on vacation who needs a makeover.
I could not believe this man wanted us women to consider sticking around with a man who is lazy! We want ambitious men who work to create better lives for themselves. I also found it amusing that this man wrote the article for Cosmopolitan Magazine. That's one of the leading women's magazines in the country!
Don't get me wrong, men can have lazy moments...we all do. What men can't do is expect us to stick around while they watch tv, play video games and eat pizza all day every day. I don't care how much ambition you have! Get your ass up and go to school or get a job!
