...What do women's pictures have against women? So often recently, romantic comedies create a female lead who's successful in business but a nag, a ditz or klutz at human relationships. And when it comes to men, she's myopic: she can't see Andy Adorable right in front of her. These afflictions beset the career gals played by Sandra Bullock in The Proposal, Katherine Heigl in The Ugly Truth and Sarah Jessica Parker in Did You Hear About the Morgans?.

I'm 42 years old, and there are certain things I can't control. The challenge is to try and look great, yes, but also to try and transcend...

For example, cutting back from 21 drinks a week to 14 puts a man in the range that is considered moderate by U.S.-government guidelines.
