A quick recap on being a man

[Sneevox]

Before you read, this MAY seem obvious to some of you... but it is really important. I find myself whining quite a bit without realizing it, and now I'm done doing that.

Quick recap.
WOMEN (real ones) like MEN (real ones).

I was just at rehearsal for the musical I am in, and I was joking around with one of my friends. I thought it'd be fun to play around and chuck a pencil at him, and he let it hit him, then proceeded to whine.

He would say "Oowww oh my goooddd that hurrrtttttt"
On he would go.
"You're sooo annoyyinngggg oh my gooodd just leave me aloonneeee"

He never gets girls. The only girl he's ever got was a girl who cheated on him twice and completely wrapped him around her finger.

Now, I don't know about you... but it was just a pencil. It didn't chuck a boulder at him. I didn't hit him with a baseball bat. In fact, my other male friends and I wrestle about on the ground and beat the sh!t out of one another because we find it FUN. Haha.

I, personally, find it important to just tough it out and keep from whining as much as possible.

Girls whine and cry because they are sensitive and frail.

Guys whine and cry because they are androgynous AFC's.

Namaste.

I consider myself a man in this respect. I fell through a ceiling, and broke 3 ribs one day at work one morning. After regaining my composure, I carried on working (on a building site). Then had a wash and went off to my second job (warehouse) and finished at 4 am. Got to the doctor the next afternoon, in considerable pain - anyone whose broken ribs can verify- got some pain killers, ordered off work for a while. Was back at work the next day. It's just pain guys, it goes eventually! That was the most uncomfortable 10 weeks of work ever! All healed now, and didn't lose pay ;-)

Yeah, man!

Like I said, men are strong and don't whine about meager pain. Tough.

Does the mighty prince complain about getting burnt by the evil dragon that he slayed before rescuing his princess? Hell no!

Hahaha!

A couple of days ago in English class, we were discussing about a novel called "Sonny's Blues". The professor noted that the narrator had strong masculine characteristics, and one of them being because he wasn't emotional. The narrator kept his cool even after his parents died, daughter died, uncle died, and his brother resorting to heroin. His wife would wake up in during the night because she would have nightmares about their daughter. The husband didn't grieve with her on those nights, but he was supportive and told her, "everything will be alright".

The book is based on a true story by the way.

@Seymourcake

Yeah, see?

The forum talks a lot of... I dunno... berating the girl. Putting them below you.
My point is, you have to be willing to accept that you are a man. The true role of "Alpha male" (which is a term I hate, because it comes from a ridiculously left-brained way of looking at things) is a protective, leader-type role that can make level-headed decisions in even the most extreme of situations.
