Christina Hendricks Open Letter to Men.

 Christina Hendricks is the talented and gorgeous actress who plays Joan on Mad Men. (She is also in one of my *favorite* Lifetime Movies, The Hunger Point-- I see you, Frannie!) 


Anyways, Christina is in the newest issue of Esquire Magazine (that's where the picture is from, btw) And I guess recently she had a conversation with Ryan Seacrest, that included this open letter to men. These are the things that she thinks all men need to know. Have a look...thoughts?


 The Letter:


We love your body. If we're in love with you, we love your body. Your potbelly, everything.
- Speaking of your body, you don't understand the power of your own smell. Any woman who is currently with a man is with him partly because she loves the way he smells.
- We remember forever what you say about the bodies of other women. When you mention in passing that a certain woman is attractive — your comment goes into a steel box and it stays there forever.
- We also remember everything you say about our bodies, be it good or bad. Doesn't matter if it's a compliment.
- Never complain about our friends — even if we do.
- Remember what we like.
- We want you to order Scotch. It's the most impressive drink order.
- Stand up, open a door, offer a jacket. We talk about it with our friends after you do it.
- No shorts that go below the knee.
- Also, no tank tops. In public at least. A tank top is underwear.
- No man should be on Facebook. It's an invasion of everyone's privacy.
- You don't know this, but when we come back from a date, we feel awkward about that transition from our cute outfit into sexy lingerie. We don't know how to do this gracefully.
- Panties is a wonderful word. When did you stop saying "panties"? It's sexy. Say it more.
- The men who constantly stare at our breasts are never the men we're attracted to.
- There are better words than beautiful. Radiant, enchanting, smoldering, intoxicating, charming, fetching.
- Marriage changes very little. The only things that will get a married man laid that won't get a single man laid are adultery and whores.
