Don't ask me why I was reading the feature recap of the Times' Weddings and Vows, but if I hadn't I would've never learned that the bride was the inspiration for the "man hands" female character on Seinfeld!
It was their first kiss, and, Dr. Whitney said, “it meant everything.” The next day he left for California. They began a long-distance relationship, but soon he was working around the clock. Within a year they had broken it off.Mr. Mandel’s response was to write “a ‘Seinfeld’ episode about her,” he said. “It’s the modern equivalent of a Shakespeare sonnet.”
He explained that in the episode, called “Bizarro Jerry,” Jerry Seinfeld dates a woman with “man hands.” Dr. Whitney, who winces when he mentions it, chimed in, “I would like to clarify that my hands are farm hands and not man hands.”
Hilarious.
