Setting the Stage Excellent, you're back! So, what did you think? Need help? Let me start by saying this article is offensive to 99% of the SAHDs out there trying their hardest to do what's best for their families. If you did not read the article here is the synopsis: The Synopsis
My TurnBottom line, her assertion is that everyone in the US cheats and that SAHDs are "keeping it real" if they admit to it because it fits into the box she lives in. She applauds this mans honesty only because it must somehow validate her own philosophies that, perhaps to no fault of her own, have been created by past failed relationships or witnessing others struggle with infidelity. My reality, after reading many SAHD blogs, articles, and forums; after being a SAHD (part or full-time) for almost 8 years; after meeting and talking to other SAHDs in my journey as a dad/husband/human being is that the average Joe SAHD isn't some rock star, ego maniacal figure that looks for spa treatments and manicures, but rather a hard working guy that deals with spit up, crying babies and stinky diapers with the best of them. If Ms. Trunks is so intune with corporate America then she should understand that the workplace is changing and many more dads are working from home or out of their home more than ever before. The trend isn't chauvinistic jerks, like the one she highlights in this article, but rather dads becoming more active in their children's lives. Seriously, labels always suck and what Penelope just did was pigeon hole a segment of society unfairly and without provocation simply because this one dude emailed her more consistently. If that’s what it takes to get a guest spot on her blog I suggest that all crazy people everywhere start emailing her consistently and make her blog really fun. I try everyday, whether it be here on my blog or in public when I am out with my girlfriends (what I call my daughters), to show people that SAHDs are just normal people who hug their kids and kiss their spouses just like everyone else. Thanks for the slap in the face Ms. Trunks , we could do without it. Drive-thru. If you feel as strongly as I do about this, please leave a comment below so that Ms. Trunks can see the solidarity.

Remember that scene in Pulp Fiction where Brad talks in circles and Jules gets uber upset and shoots him? You know the Kahuna Burger scene? If you haven't seen Pulp Fiction I will set this up in terms so that you can understand. One party says something so ridiculous that it makes another second party hostile and super angry. Gun play ensues and the first party is quite dead while the second party is left unscathed from the fray. In this scenario I am Jules (Samuel L. Jackson) and Brad is
