I pity
Superman and Prince Charming. They're both overworked and underpaid. Almost
every girl in the world dreams of being swept romantically off her feet by
either knight in shining armour because, not only is he everything a girl would
want to find in her ideal man, he bares the heartfelt promise of a man who’ll
love her eternally for the rest of her life.
Circa
2012, we discover that both Superman and Prince Charming don’t come bottled or
shaped in their trademark jaw-dropping spandex costumes or debonair tuxedos. Today’s
common heartthrob comes dressed in worn-out Converse All Stars, sagging jeans
and a wife-beater, and although not quite as heroic (or near perfect) as
Clark Kent, he drips the kind of charm that will rescue a damsel in distress
high atop Mount Everest…
Then again: a girl -- in her makeup-free face, nappy hair and oversized slippers -- should always be her own SuperGirl. With or without Superman.
