A Handsome Man with Aplomb

I don’t know about you, but I am sick and tired of seeing anodyne men in the media — men who are so goody-goody and health conscious and concerned with their six-packs that they are afraid to live and enjoy themselves. It’s only one life that we have, so it behoves us to enjoy it! There really is something extremely attractive about seeing a handsome man with a cigarette in his hand, especially these days when people are so against smoking. Seeing such a man these days shows me that the man has enough courage and enough confidence to go against the tide, to go against the flow. He is a man who has the courage to take a few chances in life; he is a man with a certain je ne sais quoi. By the way, for this excellent image, I would like to thank David on Pinterest. — Mark
