What is a man? Biologically we know he has a braciole, balls, and hair under his arms. But what makes a real man? Our society is filled with men who aren’t real men. It’s also filled with guys like you and I, who aspire real men, but we don’t always know what that entails.
To identify what a real man is, we’ll look at what he isn’t.
1.A real man doesn’t whine.
2.A real man doesn’t worry about that which he can’t control.
3.A real man doesn’t fear the loss of love. He’s secure in his relationships.
4.A real man doesn’t wish he was walking in another man’s shoes.
5.A real man doesn’t watch more than an hour of TV on average everyday.

I was a professional sports photographer for 13 years.
I never watch sports on TV. Too much like going to work.
I got my eyebrows singed by a fire once. I looked like a homo. Why would you trim eyebrows?
Ummmm my hubby is a real man and I don’t believe he’d be caught dead in a Gap. Lol
Some men’s eyebrows go wild after a certain age and they start looking like something from The Muppet Show, so a barber or stylist will trim them if you want. That’s not what I’m talking about, though. Seems like quite a few guys under forty have started waxing their eyebrows and it just looks strange. Metrosexual thing, I guess.
A real man doesn’t make silly childish lists like this.
I liked Heinlein’s list of things all men should know better.

I always feel a little weird when they trim them.
I guess I have bred enough because I am not interested in any woman that would want me to wax anything!
“filled with guys like you and I”
Stopped there, author’s a moron trying to sound smart.
Filled with guys like you
Filled with guys like I
No more than an hour of TV, that’s not enough for a sporting event, clearly the list is stupid.
A real man does what ever it pleases him to do. The measure of his manhood is in why it pleases him to do so.
Post #9 had you figured out already. Go pleasure yourself.
At least one pair of items on the list are mutually exclusive and contradictory.
I'll be on the lookout for more pairs that others might see that I missed.
I never watch sports on TV. Too much like going to work.
My brother has been a TV cameraman for pro sports for three decades. Major league baseball, NFL, NBA, the Winter and Summer Olympics you name it. He can't stand to watch sports on TV.
Right.
Real men don’t pay attention to lists like this.
The only real sports for men are mountain climbing and bull fighting. Everything else is just a game.
That is classic, thanks for the much needed laugh!
Nobody has me figured out. Not you or anybody else.
101. A real man doesn’t take numbered Internet lists seriously.
I personally don't care what you do with your private life, if you watch sports or you don't. But the idea of someone compiling a list of things that supposedly defines a real man is somewhat hilarious to me. It's like the guy who wrote "Real Men Don't Eat Quiche." I'm sure a lot of real men do eat quiche. I don't, but I'll bet a lot of men better than me do. But so what? The list is a joke.
