My mother was a single parent pretty much my entire life and every time she had a boyfriend she would tell them “you can have my heart, but you can never have my eyes.” As a child I didn’t quite understand what that meant, until I started dating. Just like a man, a woman checks out good-looking men as they walk by. We’re most likely more discrete than men and don’t need cheesy one-liners to get a man’s attention to know what we are up to. Of course I did this all the time.

Now, at the age of 24 I have found a great man that is suitable for me. Although he is no Brad Pitt or George Clooney, his personality and the way he makes me feel and smile is all that really matters…right?
I was asked to cover a show called the “Thunder Down Under” which is pretty much the Australian version of the Las Vegas Chip n’ Dales. If you need more of a description they are pretty much male strippers. There is a God after all. I walked into the room and was introduced to three of the entertainers for the night. If anyone who knows me will know that I am not a shy person at all or quiet in any way. I am the mostly loud, talkative, goofy, funny, outgoing person that you will probably ever meet except for that day. I couldn’t figure out what was wrong with me why I was so quiet and gitty like a little schoolgirl that just got her first kiss.
Then the shirts came off and I started to blush. Steve, whom I like to call my Thunder Lover, asked me “what you have never seen a topless man before?” Oh Steve if you only knew, I come home to a man with a beard and a beer gut, seeing those abs is nothing more than a female treat.
Before the show I got the chance to talk one-on-one with a member of the troupe that, for discretionary reasons, shall only be known as Steve. I asked the general questions as how he got involved in this? What’s it like in Australia? and how often do you work out a week? His response, “I used to dance all the time and worked in construction, the person who started Thunder Down Under is from my town and discovered me and I have been with him for three years now. Australia is pretty much like Chicago, we are very Americanized. The group and I only work out three times a week. If you think about it we stay in shape with our cardio everyday and keep our shape.”
These were ok questions, but there was one that I was very curious about. Now as a sidebar, ladies we all know what goes through our mind when we see a gorgeous man walk in the room. We think, “He must like other men” “He’s gotta be married to a supermodel” or my favorite “Maybe he’s a creep.” I asked Steve out of courage “So do you guys date?” Steve reply “Well its pretty hard to maintain a relationship since we are on tour half of the year, but yea we try to date when we can….women of course, a lot of women ask if we like men, but I can assure you that we do like women.”
There is hope for American women yet! Ladies you may have to travel half way across the world to find him, but they do exist. The show began and flocks of women start to scream and giggle. Their fantasy came alive for that one hour, some celebrating their renewal into the single world and on the hunt for the next lover in their life, some just getting ready to be with the one special someone for the rest of theirs, and some women who were there for their own birthday pleasure. Whatever the reason they all came for one thing and one thing only and that was to see sweaty good looking men dancing all around in nothing but a g-string on.
After my night of giggles and blushes I went home. I found my man sitting on the couch and asked me “So? Did you have your fun?” I nodded and giggled. He looked at me funny and said “I don’t know why your so giggly it’s just men with six pack abs… their nothing to look at.” “Oh hunny” I said, “Just remember, you can have my heart, but you can never have my eyes.” And so it continues.
