Jack the Doctor from "Lost" TVshow.

[pipe007]

Ive been watching the Lost seasons on netflix and the one character that really stands out from the whole crowd to me is the Jack, the doctor... I know this guy is not a DJ or a womanizer like the other dude Sawyer, but I definitely see him as a role model of a real man and a good example of how a leader should behave around other people and take charge in difficult situations...

I can see how a guy like that could attract women without even trying.... because everything he does offers VALUE to others, making sure that others survive...



what do you guys think of this character?

 

[teacha]

he's YOUR definition of a man...personally, i think he's a wussy but that's just me.

 

[AAAgent]

he starts off alright but becomes major afc. That's every typical guy. they hold it down until the woman breaks through his defenses and he gives up. Sawyer is a real dj and a$$ at the same time.

Sawyer was a real dj. He was cool and just plain badd a$$. The man read books too.

This is something I've just started to understand, people like altruism in others because it benefits THEM. People like Jack's selflessness because it's potentially beneficial to them as an individual. I admire characters like Sawyer and Don Draper more and more because they're honest about their self-interest. Self-interest is no bad thing, especially when that self-interest is supported by self-reliance, as opposed to relying on the altruism of others .

Goddamn, I remember years ago going on this worthless corporate retreat, being divided into groups and being tasked to contemplate dozens of these "Lost" type island survivor scenarios. I was so naive, myself and every other member in the group praised the selfless individuals and admonished any character who acted in self-interest. Why did we do that? Because in those same circumstances we would benefit from the selfless actions of other people, it's a selfish motive.

Sawyer is a badass and less of an AFC, but Jack is more alpha due to his natural role as a leader. He may be overly selfless, but he does it an alpha way. Some girls would prefer Sawyer and others would choose Jack, depends on the girl. I would imagine higher quality girls who don't have daddy issues would choose Jack because he offers more and is a lot more together than sawyer (at least he appears to be when around everyone else). And I mean c'mon ladies he's a doctor.

Also Jack gets Kate (Evangaline Lily) nuff said.

Michele Rodriguez is about as DJ as a girl can get. I remember when her character saw Kate for the first time she looked at Jack and goes "you hittin' that?"

well I just starting watching it, i'm on season 2 lol, so Im not sure how much of an AFC Jack gets to be in the future seasons...

yea but deffinitely sawyer is is a badass DJ.. always teasing girls calling them nicknames and assuming attraction from all agirls that come close to him... he just believes they are into him, and he dominates them.

Jack is more of a pack leader, I mean he takes care of business and protects the ones in his trive... people in the show look up to him and make decisions based on whether he aproves or not...

its really interesting...
good qualities to acquire from both characters really, a good mix from both should be perfect...
