Mr. Darcy is a character in the Jane Austin novel "Pride and prejudice". Spending all your reading time here. There are multiple versions on video. I aught to know my lady has caused me to watch them all.
He gets all the facts right, and yet leaves out the most important factor.
Mr Darcy is The Perfect Man. (well, for a substantial portion of the female population)
He has taste, wit, discretion, intelligence, looks, exquisit manners, self control, grace and and morals. He isn't a total joker and he's not always spouting his mouth off, but he is capable of fun and affection and he's educated and articulate.
He has his faults yes, er pride and arrogance being the main two, but (and this is the kicker) He Can Admit That He Is Wrong (shock!) and does his damndest to change and Learns From His Mistakes.
Oh, yeah, theres also his magnificent house at Pemberly.
So erm, i'm going to sit back down here in the corner and calm down. Yeah, sounds good.

I beg to differ. I admit I have not read the book so maybe I know not of what I speak, but three movies worth of characterization tells me that Mr. Darcy is not perfect or let's just say I can't imagine watching that movie as a young man and saying to myself, "when I grow up I want to be just like him." Or maybe I can't identify with the time and place.

Ok, so aside from the house and the looks, you've just described me as well. (see evidence of the arrogance and admitting faults)
ok, maybe not an overabundance of grace.

*Raises one eyebrow at assembled gentlemen*
Is there some reason you are all telling me this?
Ah, your all perfect to us *looks for back up from the girls*
oh SR, such a spoilsport, I go making all of these wild declarations and you have to dismiss them out of hand.
Ok, I'll change them slightly - he's my perfect man (but i'm pertty sure that 80% of women would agree with me)
You should read the books, on the surface they are fluff and romance, underneath they are social satire and often pretty biting satire at that.

Um...yeah, these guys are perfect...that sounds...uh, correct.
*nods in agreement with Mr. Darcy being the perfect man*
Well, very close to perfect at least.
*sigh*

Must have been my contrary nature kicking in. Or maybe I was doing something more subtle.
Isn't Eliza's first impression of Mr. Darcy that he is a uptight, block of stone, who couldn't smile to save his life. Now Wickam makes a fine first impression, but he's no gentleman. Mr. D's character is revealed slowly. In fact it takes the whole story to see who he is.
Rather than play the yes man and agree with everything you say or claim to be a the perfect embodyment of Mr. D, I play the foil for you by creating opposition. What you might ask yourself is what do you know about me. Don't I in fact have many of those qualities? Not all of them mind you, and I'm not single, but I never claimed to be perfect (unlike some people).
One day I'll have the time to read everything I want to and everything my friends want me to. I have whole bookshelves set aside for future reading, but enough about me.
