Own it

By psychortiz - 03/06/2009 17:40 - United States

Today, I allowed my five-year old daughter to paint my fingernails during a living-room "picnic" we were having. A while later I got called back in to work for an emergency meeting. When I arrived at the meeting I noticed my fingernails were still neon-green. I am a 40-year old man. FML

You have a five year old daughter. That immediately exempts you from being called gay or unmanly. You're not gay/unmanly because you have neon-green fingernails. You're a parent of a five year old daughter. Cheer up, it's not THAT bad.

3- usually I don't agree with comments like yours but this is one of the few occasions that I do. I don't see how this is an FML. Being an awesome enough dad to let your young daughter paint your nails isn't anything to be ashamed of. I think more parents now days should view their children with that much love and be that willing to make them happy, but sadly we've reached a time in human history where a great deal of dads (and moms too, I'm not trying to stereotype men here) just view their child(ren) as another monthly bill. OP, you be proud of yourself for being part of what is (sadly) becoming a minority in modern society. Be secure in your manhood, and if anyone trys to judge you on your green fingernails then just ignore them. Your daughter is one very lucky girl to have a dad as awesome as you.
