Looks like it.
What's the matter?
With what?
With you!
Well, I have to write this blog so I don't get erasers thrown at me on Monday.
Another week, another blog about my favorite book by Shakespeare, Macbeth Othello.
This week's character is...
(drumroll please)
Michael Cassio.
First off, Cassio is the lieutenant.
And yes, Cassio is the one that took the job that Iago wanted so badly.
Cassio is such a flirt, if you know what I mean.
He knows how to treat a women, unlike some people.
On the other hand...
Have you ever thought who Michael Cassio's foil was?
Most people think Othello and Iago are foils in Othello, but have you ever thought that Cassio and Othello were foils?

Alright, let's get back to Cassio and women.
"If such tricks as these strip you out of your lieutenantry, it had been better you had not kissed your three fingers so oft, which now again you are most apt to play the sir in. Very good, well kissed, and excellent courtesy! ’tis so, indeed. Yet again your fingers to your lips? Would they were clyster-pipes for your sake!" (Act 2 Scene 1 Page 9).
This is basically Iago saying how Cassio is "flirting" with Desdemona.
Here's a short little video on an actor that played as Cassio:
