Just remember a couple of things Brutus, “Whoever guards his mouth and his tongue keeps himself out of trouble.” Proverbs 21:23 and she is bigger than you…
Trying to think of a humorous way to greet my wife on the phone, the first words out of my mouth were, :“What’s shakin, bacon?” She took it personal, seeming to forget how much I absolutely love bacon.
I was at Church a few weeks back attending the Ordination to the priesthood of one of my former students. A woman was standing behind me taking pictures of the event. I’m 6-3 so when l heard her her taking pictures l just ducked to let her get better shots. I turned to apologize to her for blocking her shots and was saying so until I saw her. It was then that l saw her and saw that she was a good 6-6 tall, trim and very attractive woman in her late 30s. She was taking pictures over my head. I said l don’t need to apologize and we had a good laugh. In a different day and life, l would have made a move on her and would love to have played a little one on one on the court. Nothing wrong with having a woman taller and bigger than you. AND she shouldn’t be ashamed of her size. She is what she is as God made her.Her personality is another situation entirely though….
When I was a (young) teen, any adult woman or even older teen I might fantasize about was bound to be taller than I was. Even years later, if I imagined meeting a woman I’d seen on TV or in a magazine, I had to remind myself that by now she was likely to be shorter than I was, in contrast to my larger-than-life fantasies. Interesting that Brutus had fixated on small women at that young age, before expanding his options!

Best friend, large house, wonderful family, large gasoline bill even though I ride the bus, I’m sure he was thinking one of these.

Now, hold on there, Gladys. He might’ve been going to say tall or even buxom. Either of which could be complimentary.

it’s really better to think things through in one’s head before saying it with one’s mouth. (i should adhere to that more often)

Brutus, try ending your remark with, " a big beautiful woman". Who knows, she may buy it.

Only Brutus Thornapple would consider telling that story to his wife’s face. Everyone else would tell that story behind their wives back.
