Too Unmanly?

April 24, 2013

In all my time in Sicily, I’ve never ever seen a uomo (person of the male persuasion) anywhere near a laundry line.

Are clotheslines unmanly?

It’s always women hanging over balconies, stringing up the sheets. Thank you, ladies, for the sweet smiles and lovely show.

Now, gentlemen, I’d like to see a few of you out and about with clothes pins in hand.
