Snoop Dogg Is A Cowboy, On A Steel Horse He Rides.

This, Mr. Dogg, is not a good look for you. It's not a good look for anybody who doesn't perform regularly on Country Music Television, and even then, it's not exactly kickin', yanno? Even Kid Rock avoids the long trench and chaps.

But whatever. The kids probably like it. Getting a pony-wrangler is maybe not as cool as getting a pony, but it's something.

Sharon Stone Mans Up

This picture of Sharon Stone - doing her very best to redefine female transvestism for the new millenium (Victor/Victoria, anyone?) - raises just one question for me:

Is she a MILF, a DILF, or something else - Pimp Mama? Morris Day? - entirely?

Patrick Dempsey Revs His Engines

Dude clearly has a thing about cars. Which, whatever, I can accept that. But does he have to keep wearing those stupid hats?

Those hats - with the logos? and paired with a golf shirt? - are undermining your DILF status, dude. Seriously.

Man Style Tip #367: Carry A Baby

HerBadMother — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 12:31:00 GMT

I ordinarily don't like Liev Schreiber. I think that pretty much whenever he opens his mouth, he sounds like a smug ass, and also, he dresses funny. But stick a baby in his arms, and all of sudden? Cool, attractive dad.

And that's even with the crumpled shorts and the cheap untucked shirt. Baby makes it all work, somehow. Baby even makes him look a little, you know, friendly. Or maybe I'm imagining things. Still: witness the power of the cute-baby-as-dad-accessory! Get yours now!

Patrick Dempsey And His Hot Rod

HerBadMother — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 22:35:00 GMT

Whit, the lone dad on our happy team of parent gossip bloggers, told me that I couldn't make fun of Patrick Dempsey in this car. What did he say, exactly? "You can't make fun of a beautiful car like that, people will think we're uncivilized. I think it's a Jag, and it's awesome."

I was all, like, "dude, you're totally being a middle-aged dad about this. He looks silly." Then I checked with my husband, who was all, "who's Patrick Dempsey?" and "oh, that's a nice Bugatti." Which, you know, is to be expected. He's a middle-aged dad, too. (He did, I should note, say that it could be made fun of, but only if John Travolta were driving it. Point taken.)

So, the entirely unscientific conclusion that I have come to is that Patrick Dempsey, as pictured above - in the phallic-shaped vehicle with the car-logo baseball cap on his head and aviator sunglasses on his face (where are the driving gloves, dude? the white silk windbreak scarf? PUH-leeze!) - looks exactly like a middle-aged dad with minor phallic-inferiority issues and a fat wallet, expressing his masculinity through his car, and that other middle-aged dads recognize this and respect it. Moms of all ages, on the other hand, see a pretty if unfortunately-shaped car with a vain (although nonetheless hot) middle-aged man in a silly hat in it, and so are more likely laugh at it. Because we laugh at that shit.

It is a nice car, though.

Liev Schreiber Is Trying To Turn Me On...

HerBadMother — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 23:05:00 GMT

... but he's failing. Miserably.

Skinny, hairy ankles peeking through a peekaboo zip-leg track pant are not attractive. Zip-leg track pants are not attractive. Nor are shower-slipper flip-flops, nor the whole Secret Service aviator-glasses-and-baseball-cap look, especially when paired with workout wear from the nineties. And what looks to be a plastic baggy filled with dog turd, or bananas.

So, no. It's not working, Liev. Sorry.
