Richard Harrington of The Washington Post interprets the song as `` a celebration of strong men who stay home and care for kids . '' Garth Baker - Fletcher , an Associate Professor of Religion from Texas College , interpreted the version 's refrain as `` praising a steady - thinking , family - values - yet - sexy man . '' Writer Keith Boykin described the song portion , `` Although most men are hos / He flows on the down low / Cuz I never heard about him with another girl , '' as if `` rather than praise his faithfulness , the artists appreciate his discretion , while tacitly acknowledging his cheating . '' Moreover , Boykin said that `` another girl '' refers to Salt - N - Pepa 's considerations of `` heterosexual infidelity '' and as if `` some women ( ... ) were publicly excusing their men for their down low behavior .
