Actually, you dont know. :Smiley:
I am well-known in the Harlequin online community and classic Harlequins are full of misogynistic crap like "you frigid bitch!" and millionaire men spouting how any woman who is not a virgin is automatically a slut.

Wait. There's a Harlequin online community? Too funny.

You all just hold it right there!! I used to be the queen reader of Harlequin Romance novels. I have hundreds of them in my home library and I got rid of 34 boxes of books, 99% of of them romance novels, many years ago. I started reading them in 1973, but I have to admit that I stopped reading them years ago. Raising kids got in the way. No time!!

If that's the case, WTH was she doing with Brad if her type was a wimpy-looking little feller?

Haha! Jef's not wimpy! He's looking good to me! I don't think Brad was really ever her type!

Do you really think that Emily fits in with these hippy-types? Remember that Jef looked just like them up until about 3 weeks before filming began. YIKES! Also, he did say in that conference call that he was going to let his hair grow out again. If he is with Emily he won't!

Actually, Emily likes guys with a grunge rocker look. Saw Jef with his ponytail and longer hair...not so much resembling Brono or Jeremy. Emily likes edgy, Emily likes free spirit and is a confessed free spirit. I don't think Jef will grow his hair out like those two but he may go back to a longer hair look at some point. And it wouldn't surprise me that Emily would like it.

Brad was the only hamburger in the house lol. Kelti Colleen wrote a blog before the airing of this season that Emily is not into Ken doll type (Brad) like people think. She left Brad, right?

One woman's wimpy is another woman's hottie. :Smiley:

Did you really think Emily fit with those old soccer moms that she called her 'friends' on the show? Not everyone is hung up on what people look like.

fwiw, Emily did meet Brono (the guy on the left) and his wife Weslie at Jef's hometown date (Weslie, who it looks like took the photo, wrote about it on her blog). If I were Emily, I would have felt reassured to find out that Jef hangs out with a married couple that has small children already. I agree with the bolded--looks can be deceiving.

Brono's wife Weslie actually reminds me a lot of Emily in the looks and style department. She's more casual though
