No, this post has nothing to do with a powerful political movement that’s sweeping our country. It’s about something way more important. A totally different kind of tea party.
As the father of a beautiful three-month old little girl, I just want to make sure I’ve covered all my bases in writing about what actually constitutes a real man should I ever receive an invitation from my daughter to attend a tea party (imagined or otherwise) that she’s hosting. That said, a real man is willing to sit down for a tea party with his daughter.
By attending a tea party as the honored guest of his daughter, a real man models for her the kind of man she should be interested in dating when she is of courting age.
The only other important thing I can add to this discussion at this time is this: a real man always remembers to stick his pinky out.

This is so incredibly cute. I will pass this article on to my fiancé who will be a daddy in 2 months. 🙂 I would share this on my blog if it wasn’t down right now.
Totally agreed. My husband has attended numerous tea parties with his two daughters. He’s sure to pull out their chairs for them and show proper honor and respect. The side effect of this is that my youngest has asked him to please find her a husband when she grows up. She said “and make sure he opens the car door for me like you do for mom.”
