What to look for in a man (size definitely does count)

May 11th 2008 11:16
This is the truth of the matter. Size DOES count.

There is only one kind of man it is worth loving, shagging and shacking up with if you’re inclining towards the ‘til-death-do-us-part’ arrangement. And that is a man with a very very very big brain.

When it comes to men, the bigger the brain, the better. I have never understood why nerds get such a raw deal. The bigger the brains and the smaller the egos, the sexier the man. Ok, I am biased. My husband is one of those men. I once heard him described by a third party as someone with a brain that could cut diamonds. He’s got the added sex appeal of a wicked sense of humour.


See, all this cleverness makes him competent in a range of areas. He once dismantled a new washing machine that couldn’t fit through the very narrow doorway of our laundry room. Then he proceeded to reassemble it. I couldn’t watch. But he did it. I wanted to ravish him on the spot.

He never ceases to surprise me.

So this weekend, with the release of my new book just a matter of weeks away, he promised me a book trailer.

‘But you’re a lawyer, Zed, how are you going to make a book trailer?’ I enquired. He just smiled.

And with a hand-held video camera, and a computer programme and a click here and there, and a friend of ours who generously allowed us to use his music, my husband of the Very Big Brain produced this book trailer for Things Without A Name.

Things Without A Name trailer

Girls, please, take it from me. You will never get tired of a man who can make a book trailer for you.

Hey Jo,
I married my husband because he is a certified, one-of-a-kind,broke-the-mould, unique guy. He doesn't have the same connection to the written word as I do but in conversation he plucks from thin air the most amazing metaphors - he has a poet's heart.

His interests run to science, history and world affairs - while I usually have my nose nestled in a book.

He is also incredibly focused and when we used to exercise together on a super-challeging bush track he would carry my bike on his shoulders up a heartbreaking hill (I was lucky to stumble up it!)

But can I just say that if he took our washing machine apart I, too, would have to hide my eyes. I am the official IKEA asembler in our house. Our kids have had bikes put together for Christmas by him and been left with a small bag of 'spare parts' at the end of it.

Having said all that - your husband is also a man after the heart of many a modern woman. How supportive and generous to make the video for you - and it definitely whets the appetitie. Can't wait to read Things Without A Name.

And Agent Zed could possibly be the coolest name ever!

Jayne
