Kay Ingram on Tender Men & Cash

Posted by admin on Monday, March 4, 2013

Kay Ingram Money Quotation saying everyone prefers those who have cash – including someone looking to share their time and sometimes their life with them. Kay Ingram said:

“Women prefer men who have something tender about them-especially the legal kind” — Kay Ingram

 

This quote is a play on words referring to both emotional and legal meanings of “tender”. On the surface, it suggests that women prefer men who have a gentle, caring or compassionate side to their personality – who are “tender” in an emotional sense.

However, the addition of “especially the legal kind” is a pun implying that what women really want is a man who is financially secure, as in able to provide legal tender (money).

So the quote is using humor and double entendre to say that while emotional sensitivity is nice, financial stability and the ability to provide material support carries more weight when it comes to what women find attractive in a romantic partner.
