04.02.14 | the "I have a XY chromosome/penis" argument only goes so far when the real bitch in you comes out in due time. if you don't have real worthwhile skills then you definitely don't count. things like self-reliance, independent, being able to provide, able to maintain health, learn something new everyday. then I'll recognize you. |

Being a man is probably just being mature, having good hygiene, being able to control your emotions, admitting to your mistakes, and functioning at least semi-successfully in society with some sort of job.
With all of that said, I lose my temper way too much to qualify... also I'm pretty stubborn. Whatever... |

04.03.14 | okay Zakalwe still wins my thread, but LambsBread is the runner up |
LambsBread
04.03.14 | sorry Fripp I didnt notice that was you talking I was just speaking generally saying young people are apathetic today, I can see how that would be offensive to you knowing our history of bicker fests and me using that to say you don't get MMLP2.
Anyway this thread has little-nothing to do with music so I think answering the question which was 'what makes a real man', and saying "care for politics" isn't bannable in any sense.
young people (generally and relatively) don't care about politics and by extension only care about themselves. I can see this is starting to upset people somehow so I guess ill stop having an opinion |

04.03.14 | "but there are

You are being too serious about it, we aren't saying the typical meathead bullshit "you are a real man if and only if these things: have to be heterosexual cowboy etc." we are just discussing traits that were once admirable in the male population that are lost in modern society like being a gentleman and caring for your community and family. |

LambsBread
04.03.14 | decent point Kman but you coulda beennicer about it : (
and I already am sitting down. lol
It is kinda trivial to try to live up to a term that society has created, but at the same time it just kind of shows a type of respect for your elders and a commitment to continue their values after their death.
also I don't think 'masculinity' has anything to do with being a "real man", like I said, my main criteria is 'care for someone other than yourself' and I think some of the most masculine people are some of the most selfish. |

Kman418
04.03.14 | i mean i get what you're saying but the idea of "being a real man" is pretty toxic in general which that article touches on a lot
i agree that those are characteristics that are respectable and you should strive for but then just call it that - respectable. that doesn't have to do with being a man or not, that should just be an inherent part in being a good human being |

04.03.14 | I mean, its not like we should hold men and women to different moral standards based on gender, right? Is being a "real man" that different from being a "real woman" ??? |
Kman418
04.03.14 | or
OR
we could just drop all this silliness about a "real man/woman" and call it being a decent person seeing as how problematic terms like that can be
i mean it gets the same point across |
Cygnatti
04.03.14 | He said toxic earlier, do you want him to say it again? |
Kman418
04.03.14 | why it describes the concept well
