    Trophies look different to everyone, so we must build the perfect trophy for this particular group, and since we’re trying to impress Brad’s parents, I need to become their idea of a trophy wife. They’re white upper-class Minnesotans with heavy corporate overtones, ingrained Lutheran values, and Norwegian-themed clothing. When I make a list of what attributes they prize most, however . . . I realize that my recently reformed bad boy of a husband hates all the things they revere. He may want to impress them, but my goal is to impress him . . . He’s a ne’er-do-well, black-sheep bad boy who likes fast cars and strong drinks and has none of his parents’ core values whatsoever. I need to run two races at the same time, his and theirs. Two completely different races, two opposite trophy wives . . . one me.
    No problem.
    Where there’s a determined woman . . . there’s always a way.

BRAD’S PARENTS’ IDEA OF A TROPHY WIFE:
BRAD’S IDEA OF A TROPHY WIFE:
A girl who loves America and Jesus
A girl who loves porn and bacon
A sweetheart who bakes cookies like Grandma
A temptress who grills steak in a thong
A timid soul who doesn’t like to touch or talk about money
A confident woman who pays her own bills
A predictable woman who embraces routine like an autistic child
A spontaneous firecracker who’s wild and unpredictable, unless he wants to stay in
An avid baker who can win any pie contest at the state fair
A chesty bombshell who can win any wet T-shirt contest in Florida
A properly dressed lady who orders pantsuits from Talbots
A real stunner who wears sleek power suits with stilettos
A kind soul who’s also a trained nurse
A trained nurse who’s also a trained stripper
A pious lady who’s fertile and regards sex as a grim necessity
A sexpert who’s like a porn star in bed and also on the pill
A cranky virgin who wears a floor-length plaid flannel nightgown to bed
A free spirit who wears nothing but baby oil to bed
A good wife who’s as clever as she is clingy and able to track down their son like a Saint Bernard
A cool wife who’s as easygoing and nonjudgmental as a golden retriever and never asks where he was or who he was with, just wags her tail whenever she sees him

    Examining the statistical data of these two different trophy wives, we find that despite the many differences, there are also a few crossover areas that both groups value, and we tackle those areas first. The most obvious area is how I look. Everybody wants me to look damn good, all the damn time. It makes me wonder if there are any living creatures anywhere in the world that don’t care about looks. I mean, even penguins are
