That is why men like Mr Darcy marries Elizabeth Bennet rather than Caroline Bingleys of the world and why Captain Wentworth loved Anne all those years that they are apart.<br /><br />evangelineace2020(at)yahoo(dot)comLúthien84https://www.blogger.com/profile/15390711363301378521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519391315473032614.post-59234413117808221522013-06-07T14:26:51.167-05:002013-06-07T14:26:51.167-05:00So do I, Lillian!

Brandon?)<br />- behaving in a gentlemanlike manner (when they can)<br />- all the sporty things they do, riding, fencing, swimming in lakes, you get the picture :)<br />- and last but by no means least, the aura of chivalry and honour (for those who have it).<br />Have a great day, all of you - and sorry for rambling :)<br />joana{underscore}sw{at}yahoo{dot}co{dot}ukJoana Starneshttp://www.joanastarnes.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519391315473032614.post-17220819463214496432013-06-06T03:03:40.087-05:002013-06-06T03:03:40.087-05:00I think Regency men are also sexy because of their...I think Regency men are also sexy because of their code of honour -- they care about a woman's reputation. (Except for cads such as Wickham and Willoughby, of course.) A Regency gentleman had to practice the art of conversation with a woman, not just the art of kissing. And he sought the acquaintance of her family, knowing that marriage involved the union of both their families.<br /><br />~ junewilliams7 {at} ya<b></b>hoo {dot} co<i></i>mjunewilliams7https://www.blogger.com/profile/01695395707349685051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519391315473032614.post-2160496776155210052013-06-05T19:38:28.299-05:002013-06-05T19:38:28.299-05:00Wasn't this a great post?
