What is a "real man"?

[Eric LauderParticipant 12043]

Every definition of “real man” is ALWAYS meant for the benefit of women.
The only definition of “real man” that I still find barely acceptable is the definition gave by my female relatives (first time I have hear it, it came from my grandmother): “a man who is able to make a woman to orgasm and make her pregnant”.
Needless to say that when you proved to yourself, beyond reasonable doubt and multiple times, that you can do it, then the definition cannot be used anymore to make you bow down to women’s wishes: it worked just only when men could have sex just only within marriage, in another era.

The worth of a man isn't the usefulness that women get from him. Avoiding living with a woman, a man isn't rejecting a lot of sex: he's rejecting sexual starvation.

You want to know who’s not a real man? Batman. Han Solo. Indiana Jones. Prince Charming. They are not real because they do not exist. In order to be real you have to exist.

The whole thing is BS. Any one who attempts to define other than the bluntly obvious is either trying to shame or manipulate you into doing something favorable for them…or they are trying to validate themselves. I wouldn’t say there is anything necessarily wrong with goals in themselves, just be honest about it.

I’m turned on by a man in a leadership role.

I feel better about myself when I go to the gym regularly.

It’s going off a bit, but we’ve been trained not to talk about ourselves in this modern age. If you do, you are labeled as selfish. And we don’t even want to accept how selfish we are. So instead, we twist the words around to make it sound like we aren’t talking about ourselves, which only makes things worse.

Get comfortable with starting off your statements with ‘I’.

Ok. Then do it.

Great post!

I need to work on this. It is true that I feel bad to talk about myself, but I am perfectly aware that I am selfish in the sense that I am interested in talking about myself. Since this would be a bore to others, I do not engage on it. Hence I think it is bad…

Thank you for this of wisdom pearl.

From the movie The Shootist:

“I won’t be wronged. I won’t be insulted. I won’t be laid a-hand on. I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.”

It’s written I’m not a “real man” and I’m proud of it!

That’s not what I’m referring to. Say for example your friends are trying to set you up on a date. The normal reaction is to think of a bunch of excuses to get you out of this supposed obligation. “I’m busy”. “I’m not sure I’m ready to date”, “Things could get awkward if it doesn’t work out”, “Well, let me see what the schedule looks like”, “I’m low on cash right now”… when all you really need to say is “I don’t want to do that”. You don’t owe anyone any excuses and if your friends need to be placated…then that’s there problem.

Ok. Then do it.

I would associate that with the PC atmosphere and a feminization of society. Because that is what women do, they will never say something directly. But they “sort of” understand what they meant anyway and proceed to respond indirectly, and in kind:
You should go out with Brad.
(women-speak for: get a new slave, we need drama)
You think so? I dont think I am read…
(women-speak for: nope)
It would be good for you!
(women-speak for: you aint gonna say no to me!)
I am not like you, I wish I was dear. I need time.
(women-speak for: you’r a slut, shut up)
Come on dear. Deep down you know you can do it. Just let go!
(women-speak for: you’r a slut to, dont go acting saint on me)

Yes, some assertiveness and directness is required. I do agree with you. We… I should not tip-toe around subjects.

It is not just women. Society at large has a large stake in telling you what kind of man to be, even if it is mostly contrasting definitions.

The “real man” paradox is used to sell you everything from the car/truck you drive, the s~~~ty unhealthy food they want you to buy, to going overseas and getting shrapnel blown into you for the interest of big oil. You listen to them and you will be a fat slob, broke loser… or worse.

Look to traditional values for men that have stood the test of time: strength, honor, honesty, forthright, integrity etc. and stop worrying about what people who view you as a disposable resource to be drained and discarded, want you to be. Otherwise you end up like some fairy floating with the winds of trendiness, trying to please and impress people who you can never please and impress.

A “Real Man™” is what we call a simp or mangina.
