First, from Corporette:
Ellen, you probably won’t see this post, but we want to warn you that there are a lot of guys out there (including 3 in our law firm alone) who can’t wait to figure out where you work and live. They are very attracted to you but alas, want only to “tap” you. This is precisely the problem all of us professional gals have with so-called men. The so-called worthy professional guys out there (with a job, an apartment and a bank account)are seeking only momentary thrills from women — they want to have sex only, while worthy women like us, who have worked very hard for what we have got — good jobs, professional credentials, decent living spaces and some money — are now looking just to complete the picture by finding a decent guy to marry and settle down with.
Why is it that the decent guys (or those we think are decent) do not want to have meaningful relationships leading to marriage and family? Why do they view us as mere sex objects, to be “tapped” and then replaced with the next cute blond willing to part her legs for them? What is wrong with the society we live in where men like this are not interested in a woman the morning after the woman has given of herself to him? I think this is the steep moral cliff that we are about to go over, which is much worse than the “fiscal cliff” these guys are talking about. Some of them want us all to go over that cliff too, because they do not want to have to pay for everyone else’s health benefits. But enough about those guys. I say we women have to stick together and not give in to immediate sexual demands of men like this. If we do, we are only feeding the flames of the fire rather than redirecting the energy of these men to what they ought to be doing; i.e., marrying us and settling down as our parents did. They all think they are some kind of rock stars. They are not. They are urban professionals like us, and should be thrilled when we show enough interest in them to go out with them. This immorality has got to stop. Now!
And just a few minutes earlier, they had left the following comment here, in response to questions from me.
Yes, these pigs are avid followers of your site. They are fixated on locating Ellen, but do not have any clues beyond what you have given them. They know she works somewhere around Penn Station and that she lives somewhere in the East 70's uptown. They keep thinking that she must take the 4, 5 or 6 to work, and have even gotten to the point that they were going to rotate staking out the 33rd and 77th street stops on the 6, but abandoned that idea because of the unpredictable nature of Ellen's comings and goings. They bemoan the fact that she does not give out any advance specifics or they'd otherwise be on to her like a hunter to its prey. What gets us so ticked off about their attitudes is that while Ellen (and the rest of us) want to find worthy guys to date and marry, these men (who might otherwise seem eligible at a distance), think only of "stuffing her stocking" and discarding her like the other paralegals at the firm, after they have dropped their loads. Why can't eligible women like us find guys who want to do more than pump and dump? For some sick reason, these guys think that you, ELLENWatch, "will lead them to the promised land", meaning Ellen! We do not want to give any one of them the satisfaction, because no matter how saavy Ellen may be, she still can fall prey to losers like these who will do little more than deceive Ellen into having sex with them and then dump her after chalking up another notch on their (miniature) peckers. If you do discover exactly where she lives or works, do not disclose it on this blog, because these guys will be there faster than a pig in slop. They are that smitten with her, her blond look, her smarts and even her slightly large tuchis. 3 of the guys have specifically commented to us that they "would tap us if we had a tuchis like Ellen". Can you imagine the nerve of these guys, who are all over 30 years old? How immature is that? Tap us? What are we, kegs of beer? What do they think we are getting out of it? We have absolutely no desire to be "tapped" by any man, unless we were married to them. Please keep this in mind as you pursue your otherwise excellent resource on all things Barshefsky.
