I've always had an appreciation for men - my father was a respectable man who took care of our family and was good-natured, my brother was someone very reliable but fun and goofy yet disciplined and goal-oriented. And today I was just gushing about my boyfriend about all the qualities I love about him. From how hard and muscular his upper body is, from his sexy beard, to the way he is so intelligent and quick thinking and never fails to make me laugh, to the way he cares about his family and his sisters and is financially responsible and independent and able to negotiate with his boss and clients at work.

So, RPW, what do you love and respect about the men in your lives?
