What Is A Man
Is The Query Of The Day After A Little Pondering This Is What I Say A Man Is Tough Strong And Bold Yet Gentle As A Kitten When Captured In Womans Hold A Man Is The Hunter Gatherer Of Lifes Needs Bringer Of Food Of Which His Family Feeds Since The Dawn Of Time Man Has Done These Tasks Searched The World Over For What His Woman Asks My Poem May Sound Sexist But This Is Not My Intent My Woman Is On A Pedastal She Is Truly Heaven Sent She Is The Giver Of Life She Owns My Heart And My Soul Without Her In My Life I Would Never Be Whole A Man Is Many Things Without Woman He Would Fade I Should Print This Out And Show Her Maybe I'd Get Laid

Outside of fiction, I have no interest in being "a man" or "manliness." Any definition would almost invariably have to be a blanket ideal, and I don't believe in those. I think just not being a piece of shit should be enough without throwing arbitrary gender-based terminology on it. The old-school "drink and fight and drive a big truck, John Wayne" shit doesn't work for me because I don't like the taste of alcohol, trucks drive like shit, and John Wayne made, what, one or two good movies? I exclude fighting because I'm not all "oh, fighting is just stupid" types. Just don't act like fighting is going to prove anything other than who can fight better. And many of the "new school" ideals either should just be universal "don't be a douche" rules or are double standards? Don't ever hit women? Bullshit. Don't be a wife/girlfriend/woman beater, sure. But if someone is doing something that you would hit them for, reproductive organs shouldn't be the deciding factor. Maybe this is my months-long physically abusive relationship talking, but fuck that "never hit women ever" noise. Out-dated, double standard, SEXIST bullshit.
Back to "what makes a man" question; the only valid answer I can think of is "who gives a shit?"

You all sound like abunch of apron wearing queers, prancing around talking about feelings and shit.
MEN like to beat and kill things, drive big trucks and sports cars. Wear muscle shirts and drink cheap beer. Yell at things and people. Get pissed off when questioned. Thank god im just a pathetic geek. a big, tall geek who seems immune to getting picked on for all of the things manly men seem to hate. I am the cook in the house, because i like to and i am damn good at it. Most "men" dont really grill, they burn shit on expensive bonfires. I completely agree with anyone who says guys who drive big trucks and harleys, then rev their engines and drive like assholes are tiny-penised little bitches. Deep inside, they are crying because dad or some other role model called them a pussy or a fag one time. Real men laugh when they get called those things. I usually say, think what you want, if your opinion mattered, i might stick around and listen to it.

But seriously...a "man", in my opinion is someone of the male gender (ya think?) that can conduct himself in a decent, respectful manner, not on the basis of wanting to be perceived a certain way, but because they can see the reflective positivity in life and others by doing so. A person who can be strong without the need to show it to the world, sad without the need to hide it, loving in the way he feels he ought to be - not how others tell him. A fella that can admit he's wrong, at least some of the time, without finding a counterpoint as to why that makes it all ok. Someone that will stand by what they feel is right, regardless of the immediate situation it may put them in, a person who will make the same stand on a friends behalf when they cannot. A person who leads by example. ...and someone who cooks, most importantly.
