Things I learned: SamCam has an amazingly clean kitchen. Michelle O wore a floral prom style dress but had the bow taken off before meeting the Queen, and Catherine Middleton likes <a href =\"http:\/\/www.kidstart.co.uk\/partner\/Reiss.aspx?t=lwk\" target=\"_blank\">Reiss<\/a> and has lost even more weight.<\/p>\n<p>  No talk though of David Cameron&rsquo;s &lsquo;curvy&rsquo; figure or Barack&rsquo;s socks or the state of Prince William&rsquo;s living room. As for the barbecue at No.10 it was good to see the men cooking the meat and the women serving the coleslaw in aprons wasn&rsquo;t it?   <\/p>\n<p>              &nbsp;<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"border: 0pt none; margin: 10px;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.livingwithkids.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/5\/MAD-MEN.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"154\" height=\"201\" \/>\n<p>     <font size=\"1\">*Picture copyright IMDB.com <\/font>     <\/p>\n<td style=\"width: 5%\">     Now I like all of the above women and while I&rsquo;m more than a little interested in clothes and Michelle&rsquo;s toned arms, I&rsquo;m also interested in a lot more than the above.&nbsp; <br \/> \n<p>  For instance I&rsquo;d like to know what SamCam and Michelle really think about the health care reforms their husbands are pursuing. I&rsquo;d like to know what the Duchess of Cambridge thinks about being only discussed in terms of body size, and hair. And I&rsquo;d like to know what all three women have to say about making it no matter where you come from.<\/p>\n<p>  Why? Well because; a) We&rsquo;re not living in an episode of Mad Men and; b) My daughter needs better role models than Cheryl Cole and the TOWIE girls.<\/p>\n<p>  So how about those spin doctors and PRs not taking us for fools and showing us something real about these women&rsquo;s lives. That&rsquo;s something genuine and unstaged where the women can be themselves and not look horribly uncomfortable. After all like Catherine, SamCam and Michelle we already know real life is about a lot more than clean kitchens and nice dresses.   <\/p>\n<p>  <u>Deal of the Day:<\/u>   <\/p>\n<p>  <strong>25% off Shorts &amp; Tee&#39;s from <a href =\"http:\/\/www.kidstart.co.uk\/partner\/gap.aspx?t=lwk\" target=\"_blank\">Gap<\/a> before 6 June<\/strong>!
