The Second Essential Quality....

The second essential quality, in my never to be humble opinion, is edge. Edge is as easy to identify as it is difficult to quantify. At the very least, edge involves unconventionality, a certain thumbing of a woman's nose at rules she does not consider applicable to her life. She won't care, this edgy woman, whether or not others follow such limitations, she will not. This independendence may manifest itself in a brightly colored lock of hair in the midst of an otherwise homogeneous mass, or it may manifest itself in an entire head of brilliantly colored locks. The woman will never, in my experience, be a simple slave to fashion. She will rather blaze her own trail creating a look for herself that may remain constant over time or change by the hour. But regardless of her schedule, she will always be interesting to look upon and always, always looked forward to in the imagination. You see, this edgy woman, with all her endless vercissitudes is always challenging, never predictable, always exciting.

She will argue with you this one will, and you will enjoy both the argument and the passions such battles unleash afterwords. Yes, search ye for a woman with edge, the more the better. And when you find her, challenger her when you feel the courage to do so, you will be amply rewarded......
