The MAN Thread

[Kumar]

Okay people, what are the things you own or do that show you are a MAN? You know, the things that say "I'm a powerful, strong male being", and the things that smell of testosterone and draw women from a 100 mile radius.

For me, it's working on my 4x4, my house, using my chainsaw and power tools.

:crackup:

1. I work out everyday. I look good, really good.
2. I keep my mind fed with good ideas and concepts.
3. I have fun, I love having fun. I am very active.
4. I have every tool known to man and know how to use them.
5. I also know how to use technology.
6. I am a Man of Principle.
7. I know martial arts and can kick your ass if the need arises that I must defend myself.
8. I have served my country and proud of it, regarless of the current political ideology.
9. I can cook and have taken care of my siblings.
10. I respect myself and others.

I could go on and on, but you get the picture.

Listen...sweetie...

Of course, I would never give her "permission" to make her own decisions. She is an adult and never will be my property. Instead, I might either encourage or discourage her.

Snookems, this is where I am a tad different. I do ask his permission in new situations, how else would I know if he approved or not. I would rather ask his permission then ask for forgiveness any day of the week.

I would never send her to a website that is full of men. Nothing to do with insecurity or jealousy. My experience is that this is asking for trouble. It is about what is necessary for the relationship to grow and about respect. But at the end...it comes down to what makes ME happy. And what makes HER happy.

He would never be threatened by another and we have very strong trust. Should he not want me to post or read, he'd say it in a heartbeat.

I was only going to post a quick comment expressing that "THINGS" don't make the man, the MAN makes the man. But then I got on a roll boasting and gragging about him, which I could do for hours.

But...make not mistake about one thing: I do consider you a valuable poster in this Message Board and I respect you as such.

Same goes for you sir. Don't ever hesitate to keep me in line!

Heh, heh, heh,

Ok boys and girls pay attention!

The political correct lie is that women are no longer men's property.

You will be a fool if you believe the lie. You will suffer tremendously if you act on that belief.

Why?

Because women still "FEEL" the need to belong to a man. They still feel the need to be the property of a man. Yes, the laws may say otherwise, but their feelings will still rule them.

I swear English is my first language, really it is....

It is all about respect, not ownership.

Should I be asked to host a nightie party, in our home, I would WANT TO ASK my husband his opinion. It would involve him, it would take an evening away from us. If I did not do this, if I just agreed to host the party, he may feel his opinion does not matter to me, he may feel that I did not care if he was put out or not. This would be rude and hurtful to him.

Now, if I were rude and hurtful Mr Pix would in no way mince words to tell me that I was just that and I would want to apologize for not being very honorbale of his opinion.

See, by simply thinking of him BEFORE acting, it saves a lot of grief and hurt.

AND, most importantly Kumar, I only speak for me, not all women or women in general.

Now, everyone BACK ON TOPIC, Kumar, what gives you that "MANLY" feeling???

What about instead of asking for "permission" you ask for his "opinion" or his "feelings"? That way he will tell you his opinion or feelings on the issue...and you STILL have the power to make your own decisions.

I am 100% certain that you would do whatever is right and fair. But the beauty of this is that you would feel that you were empowered and trusted to make that decision on your own.


I was only going to post a quick comment expressing that "THINGS" don't make the man, the MAN makes the man.

And I would have agreed 100% with you.

EXCELLENT point! Now we agree 100%.

You might also wear a skirt.

My point is...lot of men that wear skirts (Scotland) also play rugby.

Fourthly, anyone here could do their "manly" activity of choice whilst wearing a skirt, but why to single me out.

Come on Wes, just some friendly banter.

Jeez... where is the humor?

How the hell do you that? Mirror yourself in a big bad knife??

Hey man, no probs, I'll laugh...when it's funny.

No offence bro.

 

[Latinoman]

Hmm....thats wrong on so many levels.

So, you want to debate logic?

First, it's not a skirt, it's a kilt. Which, by the way, the Scots used to do battle in. Ever done battle in your manly trousers? No. Didn't think so.

I am a Gulf War I Veteran. So, to answer your question...YES, I have done battle.

Second, I'm not Scottish, as is evident from my "location"

I never said that YOU were Scottish. What I said was that Scottish people ALSO play Rugby...and wear skirts.

Third, according to your logic (that i might add, is unfounded, like me claiming "men who have beards play tennis"), every person who wears a "kilt" plays rugby?

Actually, YOU implied that every person that plays rugby is a MAN. And I implied that the analogy is incorrect. Because if we play the game of analogies, then we could stay that every person that wears a skirt is a woman. And we all know that Scottish people do both: wear a skirt and play rugby.

Fourthly, anyone here could do their "manly" activity of choice whilst wearing a skirt, but way to single me out.

Listen...another quality of being a Man: the ability to bust balls and taking it back.

[Latinoman]

Not ALL Scottish people play rugby mate, not ALL Scottish people wear KILTS. It's a traditional dress worn at weddings and so forth.

Exactly!

Therefore, no every one that plays Rugby is a "man".

Take it easy dude...I'm just picking on you.
