Romeo vs. Mr Darcy
Friday, 13 March 2009
Lets face it, this HAS to be the most wondered question on ever girls mind.
In a romance boxing match between Romeo and Mr Darcy, who would win our hearts?
In the red corner, we have Romeo Montague. Obviously one of the most well know, if not The most, lover in all of literature history. That's a pretty big title to claim, no surprises that it was Shakespeare that conveived this story, is it? So anyway, back to the plot. Actually, not back to the plot, everyone knows that story back to front, no need for me to explain it any further. Silly Romeo, kills himself when he believes that his lover, Juliet has died. Romeo is a great reader of love poetry, how romantic... However, Romeo has no capacity to act in moderation. He's always sneaking into his enemy's garden in the middle of the night, just to catch a glimpse of the girl. He kills his wife's cousin... that's not so cool. He's kinda intelligent, maybe not, but he's witty and likes to talk about sex a lot. He falls head over heels for Juliet pretty quickly, so that's got to kinda be a bonus. And he's does romantic things, which nearly every girl on this planet loves. But it kinda sucks that he's dead.
In the blue corner, we have Mr Darcy. Darcy exhibits all the good and bad qualities of the ideal English aristocrat — snobbish and arrogant, he is also completely honest and sure of himself. He's willing to change himself and re-evaluate his characteristics for the one Dear Lizzie that he loves. That's pretty good. He's handsome... so so so so so so handsome! I'm pretty sure that's the main point to it all. He's awesomely intelligent, witty and doesn't talk about sex.
So now it's over to you. Who would you vote for?
