It’s been an emotional time in the news, alot has happened in the last month or so.

Haiti was blitzed and is still suffering, erm, a fashion icon who hanged himself (I don’t follow fashion so i don’t know who all you ladies are crying about…) and most importantly for me as a guy, more news of male infidelity. Can we have a *collective sigh* please?

It all started this year with John Terry, crazy guy makes millions and sleeps with an ex team-mates girlfriend/fiancee/babymother, that’s bad enough, but add the fact that he also got her pregnant, paid for her to have, what the tabloids called, a “lucrative” abortion and we have a whole new meaning for the term, “Men are dogs.”

I guess, he is lucky he is a footballer, only so much damage can be done if you have a ball kicked at you, beats getting chased with your own golf clubs, eh?

So, he has now, lost the England captaincy, potentially, his wife and going by his last performance against Saha (not Everton), his head!

But the thing is, that for all his heroism on the pitch he couldn’t be man enough to own up to it once he got a whiff that the media smelt blood, so what did he do, he took out an injunction on the media! Banning them from reporting it, more fool him, that is like baiting a caged lion, then opening the gates, bound to get mauled, no?

That’s just one male in the news these past few weeks, ‘taking up the mantle’ from Terry as one of my friends put it, was Vernon Kay, “happily” married to Tess Daly, found to be having a “sex-text affair” (personal snigger) come on now…what is it with the rich and famous, never satisfied with what they have.

Equally, I wasn’t satisfied with his statement, I never am, “I knew it was getting silly. I’m never going to do it again. I’m so sorry, I’ve been an idiot and I’ve let my family down.” ok maybe it isn’t so daft now I look at it. At least he didn’t try to gag the media, eh? But his next words actually made me laugh, “I’ve only done it with four or five girls and I’ve known them all well – they’ve been friends or work colleagues.” Rewind: ONLY four or five girls?? And because they were work colleagues and friends that makes it alright. yeah?
So guys, a tip from Vernon Kay: If you’ve known them since university or work with them, its ok to sex-text them! *sighs* You all will probably be getting excited about that last statement – but sorry, IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.

Today, no sooner was I thinking, ‘why are all Chelsea players such infidels’, than I read the front page of the Sun newspaper, saying: “X-Rated ASHLEY PHOTOS SENT TO MODEL“. The man never learns, he’s already had one affair, now he is sending, oh sorry, “a mate” is sending photos of him naked to a topless model.

Apparently, according to Cole, he took the pictures while in his hotel room, on an unregistered pay-as-you-go mobile (you’re a multi-millionaire, what the hell you need a PAYG phone for?) in “all his glory”, he forgot to delete the photos gave the phone away to a friend, who gave the phone to another and that friend sent the photos to the model in question, I say nothing, but my eyebrows are raised at the likeliness.

I just wanted to say one thing, and you can quote me on this, for all their greatness on the pitch, Chelsea players are dogs, hell, even their owner is! Abramovich is now divorced over an affair with a younger woman, Lampard has already been done over, who next? Drogba? Actually, I look forward to that one.

Then there is me, I don’t come anywhere near the previous mentioned men in my let down of males, no, mine is a case of misunderstanding and desperation. Uh-huh, desperation.

You see, I started the week on the high of one of my best weekends in a while, that high was brought down immediately by the loss of someone dear to me. My reaction was one of sheer confusion, frustration, anger and I daresay, a whisper, helplessness.

I guess, I was asking too much too soon, maybe or I just didn’t take into account that she was going through something herself, there was alot of silence involved, I’m an extremely observant and social person, and my years doing this tells me that, extensive silence is rarely a good sign, I thrive on being able to, you know what, this is TMI about me, the point is, I tried a little too hard to get her attention and sent her a text (text again, what is it with guys, why texts always get us in trouble?), that at the time, I thought was harmless, but after I sent it, that whole “oh S***, I shouldn’t have sent…*message sent*…ahhh F***!” syndrome kicked in.

She didn’t speak to me for days, but a friend reminded me about her star sign, hmmm, never should a Gemini lean on them too much, I’ve learnt that lesson now, who knows maybe I can pick up the pieces, maybe the pieces have already been swept away and put into the dustbin, but the point stands….

So, what now for us guys?
We keep letting each other down, we should be more like the 300 Spartans rather than Troy, with its devious ways and stop getting screwed from behind.

This month, men were ASS-INVADED.

It has been a good month for women, especially the ones who drone on about men being dogs.

I think it’s time for the guys to start ACTING like men and put away childish things.
