What is a man, to you?

[14_Peter_88Participant 129]

Is there ways we should(nt) act? Or is that just the programming speaking?

Do you have any do’s and don’t? I know this is broad, im trying to gage a general audience whereby the answers aren’t restricted to the question and can kind of flow.

Adolescent boys (like me), what would you advise them?

1. I’ve quoted him before and I will quote him again. Baz Lurhman was said “Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth”. The power and the beauty that you, yes you, possess is in fulfilling your potential. Weather it’s from chasing your passion, or in a chosen vocation, that is your power. Relationships stand in the way of this. Easy to say and difficult to do because the pussy looks, smells, tastes and feels so good.

2. Are there ways a man shouldn’t act. Never act contrary to you own values. “To thine own self be true”. Don’t lie about your fellow man.

3. Do pursue an advanced education. Do engage in physical fitness. Do invest time and energy with like minded men in your chosen endeavors. Act in your own enlightened self interest. No one, and I mean no one is going to do this for you but yourself. Always conduct yourself with integrity.

4. Is there a way we shouldn’t act? If you like to tell jokes, tell jokes. If you like to donate your time then do that also, etc. Be wary of sharing too much of yourself with mere acquaintances. Only the most trusted friends have earned knowing who you really are. The most interesting men that I have ever known were a complete mystery to me until I was deemed trust worthy enough to share themselves with.

I don’t understand the question. “What is a man to you” is not a personal opinion.

A “man” is a human male born with XY chromosomes. Period.

They will try to program to you to think you need to do / say / think a certain way to but that’s just THEIR stupid definition of a “real man” .

But even Caitlyn Jenner is a “real man”.
He’s just a FAKE WOMAN.

People actually think that way “Caitlyn Jenner is definitely not a real man”.
But he’s actually NOT A REAL WOMAN.

Well since you asked , the first thing I would advise (in case it wasn’t clear already) is never – ever – listen to anyone’s horses~~~ about what makes a “man” a “man”. If you listen to women speak about it, they will ALWAYS describe something that is useful to her. Pull her chair out,. Pay for her. Treat her this way. Treat her that way. DO this for her, Do that for her. Hang this picture for her. Carry that for her. Then you’re a “real man”.

And when you refuse to do it or just say “no” you’re suddenly not a “real man” anymore?
You’re exactly the same man whether you perform her stupid stunt or not.

So nobody is in a position to tell you that. The terms and conditions – beyond your own biology – are all yours.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

thats what i wanted to hear. i was interested in peoples general ideas for the first two, not so much for my benefit, i already have my views on how a man should conduct himself and yes i understand a man is just a biological fact of nature, this is what i wanted to hear
and that is good advice, my mum tried to pin that s~~~ on me, f~~~ that

I will tell you what a real man is not –

I was at a park with a woman I was deeply infatuated with. Some older gentleman was flying a RC plane (the baddest ass thing I ever saw). I stopped and just marvelled at the aerodynamic maneuvers. I’d love to own a high end RC flying chopper.

The woman goes, “wow what a loser he has nothing else to do, looks boring ”

I chuckled and followed her like a pathetic puppy.

A real man would have gone up to the guy and shook his hand and complimented on how f~~~in awesome that thing really was. And stayed there for as long as he wanted to talk to the man and how receptive the other man would have been of my company. A real man would have let the c~~~ know boring.

So a real man is one who acts how he feels and wishes.

Looking back that man was likely a MGTOW.

Seneca has a quote about what a man is not:

“Show me a man who isn’t a slave; one who is a slave to sex, another to money, another to ambition; all are slaves to hope or fear. I could show you a man who has been a Consul who is a slave to his ‘little old woman’, a millionaire who is the slave of a little girl in domestic service. And there is no state of slavery more disgraceful than one which is self-imposed.”

I agree with the old boy. It still does not answer what a man is, but it does provide a useful guide to telling when one is not being a man.

Society asks MGTOWs: Why are you not making more tax-slaves?

What is a man? I am a man. That’s all there is to know, for I was born this way. Men are the others like me, and women are the ones unlike me.

[Big Viking Chef BVCParticipant 1286]

I am a man. I have made bad choices in the past that have damaged my manhood, my freedom, my wealth, etc. But I will always be a man, until the day that I become a corpse.

Never forget what you are, and be certain of it.

Swallow this RED PILL ===> Men will lay down their lives for their brothers, their women and their children. This makes Men useful as slaves. Women will lay down their lives for ONLY their children. To expect more from women is just a FANTASY created by society and reinforced by the unconditional love that we experienced from our Mothers. The key to freedom is the understanding that the woman you meet is not going to fantastically love you like your Mother did. If you buy into the fantasy, then she is your new master. If you do not buy into the fantasy, then she is nothing, and you retain your freedom.

Man is a human with a Y who always questions “Why?”
Woman is a human with a X who is your ex

proud carrier of the 'why?' chromosome

I dont fualt you for asking this. If Im correct, I think your still a teenager. I think almost every guy asks this of himself at some point. Were bombarded with imagery and ideals as to what a “real man” is, most of which are becoming conflicting in this liberal strange world. Women dont even have to ask that question of themselves.

A mans measure used to be by his success. I dont think thats a good metric today. I would say its by his ability to overcome failure and live by a code of conduct.

I would say the measure of a man is not defined by: money, a woman, or status symbols; but his ability to overcome adverse circumstances and still stand. How many people are there to help a man when hes kicked down or hurt? NONE.

He has to find the resolve in himself, by himself just to keep moving forward. And in todays day and age even THAT is not enough. Its always “your a MAN!”…”MAN UP!”…. More discouraging words with no help.

If a man can overcome this, hes a man.

Resident cynic.
