We are an up and coming breed, we men who are married to this particular type of woman.  You’ll recognize us by the following characteristics:

• We, and especially our children, are constantly being followed by a camera-toting wife
• “Scenarios” are constantly being arranged for photo opportunities.  We wonder if this is really candid living or carefully orchestrated dramatization.
• We’re known to say things like “Can we live the moment instead of trying to capture it?”
• We’ve got silly, cryptic names, as if people can’t figure out who we are…  in my case, it’s “Minister Man”
• We’re caught on camera doing some of the dumbest and revealing things.  It’s hard to decide if the posts are an invasion of privacy or an insight into our uniqueness.
• Our backsides are photo-centric
• We’re constantly ducking out of photo opportunities while our children have not yet learned that defense mechanism – this leads to lots of pictures of our hands and the sides of our heads
• Our meals have to be photographed before they’re prepared or eaten.  This is true of home-cooking and of restaurant meals.  Don’t you ladies know that we’re hungry?!?!
• On the upside, all this recipe sharing leads to some pretty yummy meals and snacks
• The story of our lives, while likely average or mundane, are highly dramatic sounding when written out in our wives’ photoblogs.  It’s almost as if we’re living on a reality TV show.

I’d love to hear if there any more of you out there in the blogosphere.  You know who you are!  Let’s hear from you, and perhaps we can add to this list.
