Every year, in the middle of February, comes an event that men across North America and indeed, the world, look forward to all year long. Feelings of love and lust may be renewed and heightened, and many men spend a great deal of time learning new things about the objects of their affections.

Women, on the other hand, don’t generally care much about this event, and some women even have very negative feelings about it.

Yes, I must admit, I am one of the men who enjoy this event every February. For me, it occurred last Thursday, and once again, I was not disappointed. That’s when my copy of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition arrived.
