I've always loved strong women, which is lucky for me because once you're over about twenty-five there is no other kind. Women blow my mind. The stuff that routinely gets done to them would make most men curl up and die, but women turn to steel and keep on coming. Any man who claims he's not into strong women is fooling himself mindless; he's into strong women who know how to pout prettily and put on baby voices, and who will end up keeping his balls in her makeup bags. .

About This Quote

I love strong women. I’m always excited to see a woman do anything that requires strength and skill and courage and bravery and perseverance and all those other things that we men lack. It makes me crazy to see a woman flinch at the thought of lifting something because her last few boyfriends didn’t lift as much as she wanted them to, or to see a woman who’s able to take the abuse of her child better than he could.
