I actually think it's a really interesting topic. I was a little taken aback at the antique store the other day when the seller of my Victorian scuttle said "Not eh most manly thing" as he sold it to me. Do you think this (almost) aversion to flowers is a modern idea? Why is it that flowers are particularly 'girly'? I'm not about to wear a floral print suit to work, but I don't believe a fellow who likes flowers and the beauty of nature has succumbed to SWMBO. Now, I admit, I'm a rather odd fellow, normally it is I who gathers flowers from the garden and puts them in vases inside, but it's not a BAD thing, is it??? I mean this all in good humour :-)
