A word regarding this month's fashion feature and the related discussion: Jason DeRusha did not, in fact, call his wife slutty. He was simply being witty about the fact that 1) he is, in fact, male and 2) he therefore prefers that his beautiful wife wear form-flattering clothes. And yes, friends, in the minds of men, I'm afraid "attractive" has often been conflated with "slutty."
So, is this one of those quotes that should've fallen to the cutting-room floor? Perhaps. But, in my mind, it was just too specific/amusing to pass over. And you know what? If it was my boyfriend who had gone shopping for me, I can almost guarantee that, knowing him and the way he talks, he would've used a different, even more incriminating word as he picked out one of those uninspired, almost ass-baring sundresses to which he's partial: "whorish." Of course, in reality, I'm not really a whore. In fact, I'm pretty much a prude.


I really wish I used the word "sexy." I also wish I hadn't used the word "slutty" three times in one sentence.
But, on the bright side, I did point out my wife has great legs! I think as my penance, I may have to actually buy her the nearly $500 dress. :-)
I'm glad you used the quote, it was funny, and I think most people took it as intended: a compliment towards my wonderful, beautiful wife (who is currently standing over my shoulder).
