11. Women are comfortable around my husband too

He's big, and hairy and tends to scowl or be blank faced, but a few minutes in his company they like him. Maybe it's because our marriage is so solid, but I think it's him--he's just not a creep.

And he has funny little sayings, some as simple as "it's not your fault" or "there is no statute of limitations on the grieving process" that people tend to remember given particular circumstances. He also refuses to hang out with creepy men that talk sexual shit about women.

What's funny is he can be a real asshole when he wants, he just sticks up for what he believes is right.
