of all the magazines with Sandra Bullock’s face at the grocery check out lane, the one that caught my eye had the title **"Married to a Monster!"** Poor Sandra, in the same catagory with Eva Braun, Nadezhda Alliluyeva and Mrs. Pol Pot. ---

I have to admit that I don’t read the celebrity stuff in the media but about 2 months ago I offered up Sandra Bullock as someone who has kept her private life private. I didn’t know whether she was married, or in a relationship at all. Apparently I was wrong. ---

Per the public statements of his most recent fling, I think the (apparent) fact that he was hung like a bull elephant might have had something to do with her seemingly odd choice in SOs. I don’t know SB’s preferences in men, but for a variety of reasons some women really, really like men with large endowments and find it a big turn on. If he was an an intelligent conversationalist with rough edges, so much the better. ---

> [@Magiver](#): > > She married a foul mouthed motorcycle mechanic/reality TV “star” who is covered in tattoos and was married to a porn star. On top of that his name is “Jesse James”. :rolleyes: > > What did she expect beyond the opportunity to pick up an STD? Maybe he’s got a really big schlong. I always thought SB looked like a mannequin. That role she just won an Oscar for…didn’t she play a rich white woman? There’s a stretch. ---

There is a good take on the whole thing [here](http://sparklepony.blogspot.com/2010/04/dramatic-interpretation.html). ---

> [@DrDeth](#): > > Not so much. Look, the dude was a “bad boy” and she knew it. Bad boy are indeed- bad. And- ladies- once a scumbag, \*always \*a scumbag- men will not change due to your love. Quoted for truth - Sandra Bullock would be far from the first woman who thought she could “fix” her bad boy with the power of her love. > [@Slithy\_Tove](#): > > of all the magazines with Sandra Bullock’s face at the grocery check out lane, the one that caught my eye had the title **“Married to a Monster!”** > > Poor Sandra, in the same catagory with Eva Braun, Nadezhda Alliluyeva and Mrs. Pol Pot. My thought was, “She’s not married to a monster; she’s married to an asshole.” ---
